Tonight I got a phone solicitation call from Obama's money grubbers

[Cyrano]

As soon as I realized what it was, I cut off the caller and said:

"Stop. Not one more penny from me until Obama takes Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid off the table. There's no compromising on this. Call me again when and if this happens."

The caller was of course some telemarketer who was trying to make a living while collecting bucks from the rest of us. Fortunately, she understood there were no bucks coming on this call.

Here's my point. How can Obama sell us out on Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, and so much more, and them expect hired telemarketing companies to succeed in hitting us up for contributions? Does he really believe we're that stupid?

Then again, when you're using a telemarketing company to collect bucks for you, there will always be some who will contribute. And my attitude is that he should choke on every dollar taken from those who need it more than he does, and are dumb enough to contribute, given how he's betrayed us.

Enough said. Have any of you gotten these solicitation calls?

3. About 5 minutes ago

from the DNC. I told them to get back to me after this fiasco was resolved in a way that was not a big GOP victory. She started arguing with me that I had to support the Democrats. They aren't Democrats IMHO if what comes out of all of this hurts the elderly and poor and benefits the rich and corporations.

John Boehner and the Tea Party is holding the country hostage and if the Democrats pay their extortion demands then I give up.
