I just gave it to a telemarketer from MBNA
I just got one of those "we're all set to send you this credit card, we just need to verify your information" calls. It was from MBNA. I told the guy that I most definitely did not want a credit card from MBNA. I told him that if his company wanted my business they needed to switch their political donations from 72% Republican sponsorship, to 100% Democratic, and until then I am boycotting his employer. I tried not to be too rude, but I ranted a little.

That will give him one to talk about in the breakroom, anyway.

1. Yeah Like The Direct TV Guy!
I always get these "we have a special offer to get your business back" calls from Direct TV and I tell them that their company is owned by a very evil man who will never get a dime from me, buh-bye! *click~* I always wonder what he types in the little "reason" box. Not the truth or they woulnd't be calling me back all the time!

2. this guy was floored...
poor little dude- he sounded so shocked he may have been a democrat. Either that or he picked up the red phone to alert the Bushsquad. I was so up after that call, I'm thinking about picketing Wal-Mart on Friday:7

4. "Walmart Supports Abortion" is a good sign
think about it, they force companies to move to China, or just buy from Chinese companies

what country has the only state run abortion machine that FORCES it's citizens to abort children? China!

Put that in your pipes and smoke it you fundy, reproductive slavery advocating regressives, you....

5. that's something to think about
w/r/t our national debt, as well.

Now American children can look forward to growing up and supporting China's one-child policy with their very own tax dollars, which will be used for paying interest on the debt instead of providing services here. Grrrrrreat!

So, in a way, this is "U.S. tax dollars going to abortion," isn't it?

6. That's a great idea for a sign!
The scum-puglicans told their followers that Kerry "kills babies," which is a blatant lie. "Walmart supports Abortion" is actually pretty close to the truth.

It's time to start fighting back with powerful words and slogans of our own.

3. Ha! We do that too!
"Ma'am we have this great deal to bring you back to DirectTV...blah blah blah."
"No."
"But blah blah blah..."
"No."
"But we can give you blah blah blah...."
"Your owner is the antiChrist, and we switched to Dish Network. Rupert Murdoch is scum. You'll never get a penny of our business again."

I enjoy letting them babble and waste their time. It keeps them from signing up another gullible idiot while I keep them on the line for 20 minutes and keep saying "no."
:evilgrin:
