[nannycee]

1. I'll do my part. BBB complaint, too! n/t

[grannylib]

4. Thanks, nannycee!

:hi:

[nannycee]

12. I'm shocked...don't appear to be foundo on BBB! n/t

[davidpdx]

2. Most of those client are campaigns

With the exception of a few others. I wonder what work they do for the Packers and Vikings. Those are the two organizations people should complain to.

[grannylib]

5. That and check out the edit - polling organizations and media...

I knew the VikQueens were a filthy lot, but now I'm sure of it. You can bet I'll be contacting them.

[Waiting For Everyman]

3. Wow, you found, like, a whole nasty nest of 'em there, didn't you...

all cozy-like together?

The Insurance Federation? My, my. I wonder what they have to do with Repub candidates? I like them, and the Chamber of Commerce. Robocalling is pretty sleazy behavior, for the CoC to be indulging in, don't you think? They're supposed to be all-upright, and all. :sarcasm:

:rofl:

[grannylib]

6. These "people" are FILTH. Yikes, I better cross-post this in MN

forum, hang on, be right back!!

[amborin]

7. great idea

[grannylib]

10. Thanks, let's keep this kicked please so it's still up in the morning

These people are filth.

[truthisfreedom]

8. They work for the FEC?

Am I reading that right?

[grannylib]

11. I didn't see that; I'll have to look more closely, but I'll check!

[steve2470]

9. k and r nt

[beac]

13. K&R! n/t

[wickedweasle]

14. i will do my part and give them a call in the morning

and at take minute of the time and dime from there toll free number

[Sunnyshine]

15. This list is straight out of Karl Rove's rolodex. What a jackpot of connections this is.

Like, Wow! There they all are together, just feeding off of one another.:puke:

[Heather MC]

16. K&R

[tblue]

17. Yes!

Hi Granny,

It's too late at night now, but I'll do some work on this in the morning. Pls feel free to re-post sometime tomorrow if this doesn't hit the Greatest page. Thanks! We'll make this fun!

tblue

[Lil Missy]

18. My pleasure to K&R

[Road Scholar]

19. K&R Keep it kicked

:kick:

[eridani]

20. Boycotting Packer and Vikings is going to be a hard sell

However, any season ticket holders should raise holy hell at the front office about this.

[grannylib]

25. Yeah, I'm sure it will...for some...I couldn't care less about football

but I'm sure some folks will be horrified at the very notion!

[vaberella]

21. It's like a GOP roll call. Thanks. n/t

[voteearlyvoteoften]

22. am kick

[formercia]

23. Don't forget the Chamber of Commerce

"“Joint and several liability reform has been a long standing priority for the business community, local governments, schools and non-profits. Grassroots wins the day in politics and FLS was an invaluable partner in implementing a targeted program to help secure the votes needed to pass this major legislation.”

—David C. Olson
President, Minnesota Chamber of Commerce
Chair, Civil Justice Coalition"

http://www.flsphones.com/team.htm


Civil Justice my ass. What nerve.

[grannylib]

24. Kicking back up for the morning crew...

[Mist]

26. Re: Faxing--don't forget the "loop of doom" which is making 3 or 4 copies

of YOUR fax, the one you're sending, and taping them together, so there's a rotating loop of the same fax. Which results in an
infinite number of faxes being RECEIVED. Send multiple faxes while cleaning the house, watching TV, playing with the cat, whatever.

[progressoid]

27. I'm already boycotting Republicans!

:shrug:

[the48er]

28. I Wish We Still Lived in Winona

We'd have been glad to picket.

For whatever it's worth, though, our best wishes and moral support are with you from afar.

May you make the evil bastards' lives unlivable until such time as they mend their heinous ways. If ever full-tilt shunning and shaming were called for, it's called for in this instance.

[Top Cat]

29. Thanks for the post

[amborin]

30. anyone able to find the video

of McLiar denouncing the robo calls from this same firm in 2000?

[cameozalaznick]

31. KICK

[XOKCowboy]

32. That should read Shaffer For Senate..

A minor nitpick for sure and I'm not surprised he's their client. He's running a desperate campaign since he got caught trying to make an oil deal with the Kurds. Udall has been calling him "Big Oil Bob". :)

[msanthrope]

33. SOME LINKS and Connections I made this a.m. (copied from another

thread--)Boycott, protest, and make noise---ask these clients if they want to use a company that makes these robo-calls--

Republican National Committee
National Republican Senatorial Committee
National Republican Congressional Committee
Republican Governors Association
Well, these assholes aren't going to care--except RGA, who would probably like to preserve their political aspirations even as the national/federal Republican party shoots itself.


Minnesota Chamber of Commerce--
is headed by the head of Hubbard Radio Network--since you are in the listening area, you might want to give the local stations a call.
http://www.hubbardradionetwork.com/affiliates/affiliate...


United States Chamber of Commerce--
Tom Donahue is a die-hard repuke who really won't give a crap.

Wisconsin Manufactures and Commerce
A very pro-business lobby group--BUT, their board of directors includes MANY businesses that make things---JOHN DEERE, SNAP ON, etc... http://www.wmc.org/AboutWMC/catpage.cfm?category=8


American Academy of Ophthalmology ask their trustees if they support these robo-calls http://www.aao.org/about/governance/board/roster.cfm
Be nice--thee guys may not know of the linkage....


Americans for Tax Reform
Citizens Against Government Waste
Winger welfare 'think' tanks/lobbyists. They won't care.

NCG Porter Novelli-- PR firm--and THEY have clients galore....
HP, Proctor& Gamble, etc..
http://www.porternovelli.com/site/mainpage.aspx?pgname=...


Green Bay Packers
Minnesota Vikings---
Direct contact of the front offices...ask if this is a policy they support...

Insurance Federation of Minnesota
Geico and AIG are associate members.
Can we call the gecko? Don't 'we' now own AIG?
http://www.ifm2.advocateoffice.com/index.asp?Type=B_BAS...


National Beer Wholesalers
http://www.nbwa.org/About_Us/presidents_message.aspx

National Restaurant Association
http://www.restaurant.org/aboutus/contact.cfm

APCO Worldwide--

another PR firm--who might still employ Snotty McClellan.
their clients--
http://www.apcoworldwide.com/content/case-studies/index...

Weber Company
--can't tell who this is--the pharma corp or the grill maker.

Wisconsin Farm Bureau
Illinois Soybean Association
Hey--I thought McCain wasn't too keen on biofuels--why are these guys signed on?
http://www.wfbf.com /
http://www.ilsoy.org /


National Federation of Independent Business
These guys are supposed to be non-partisan, and they have contact info here,
http://www.nfib.com/page/aboutHome

National Rifle Association
Um, yeah....

Arizona Realtors
Contacts--these guys are part of the National Realtor Association, and aren't they supposed to be following (and perhaps promoting) anti-discrimination polices?
http://www.aaronline.com/documents/AAR_overview.aspx


Hill and Knowlton
Another PR firm, but I can't see these winger assholes, or their clients, caring...

Dole and Coleman are the only candidates here who might not care to have their names associated with the robo-calls. And that's only because of tight races for them....As for the state parties, I don't know that any of them would show any personal decency.



BE POLITE--some these firms, people, may not know about the robo-call association. Be persuasive....not a jerk.

[kaygore]

34. Wow! Thank you. I am going to pass this around my circle!

[ClayZ]

35. They all support terrorists and should be arrested!
