We just got a robocall from "The League of American Voters"
trumping up nonsense about the "violence and destruction" being committed by the union thugs in Madison. They're some sort of astroturf bunch.

We also got a Sierra Club call from a real person supporting the protests.

let it go on the answering machine, hoping they get charged by the minute, since it was so long.

3. Got one last night, have finally learned to lay the phone down
and let the thing spew on. ties up their phone lines for another call. If everyone did that, it would shave a lot of calls off their list.

4. They've been running radio ads too.
Why doesn't Scott Walker have a problem with those outsiders?
