Washington Post picks up GOP "robo calls" story



| Reddit | Tumblr | Digg | FARK

It's desperation time for the GOP. Even in the final days of the election cycle, they still can't be honest with the American public. Worse yet, they are harassing households who have sick and elderly people who may need immediate phone access in life and death situations. Obviously the GOP failed to learn their lesson from similar events in the past where they have been found guilty so this subject ought to be high on the list of investigations next year. GOP democracy in action.

Whether "robo-calls" are positive or negative, mean-spirited or humorous, thousands of Americans are sick of them, according to campaign organizations that have been fielding complaints over the past two weeks.

An Ohio woman, who did not leave her name, called The Washington Post in tears yesterday, saying she could not keep her phone line open to hospice workers caring for her terminally ill mother because of nonstop political robo-calls.

Pamela Lorenz, a retired nurse in Roseville, Calif., called her own experience "harassment as far as I'm concerned" and said, "If I were voting right now, the opponent who's doing this, he'd be off my list for throwing that much trash."
Dirty tricks is all the GOP can offer since they have botched everything else up.
