Can't recall the exact name of the group, I think something like 'Family Research Council' or something like that. Robo-poll. What a freakin' bunch of fundie-right hacks. The first two questions were the only "real" questions: "Do you intend to vote for Mitt Romney?" NO. "To you intend to vote for Barack Obama?" YES. To say the rest of the questions were loaded would be a gross understatement and they were clearly intended to make the taker look like some deliberately uber iconoclastic heathen if they didn't answer their way. Though I didn't like their black/white format, I nonetheless voted in the best way to show a leftist middle finger rather than meet them any part of the way at all, even if it made me look over the top. I "beat the poll" but wonder what they'll do with the answers.

(26,263 posts)Both times, as soon as I realized what they were trying to do, I hung up on them.
I've also landed on Calista Gingrich's robocall list and I don't know why. I've gotten 2 calls from that group, too, and the 2nd time I waited it out so I could read the riot act to the human who finally came on the line. Someone I think my words probably prompted them to remove my number from their call list.

(5,364 posts)I answered this one ( caller ID ) because it was around election time and I figured it was a poll and had a desire to punch the right wing spin machine in the gut.
