I just got a call, ON MY CELL PHONE,woke me out of my sleep, and like the person from Texas, the automated survey asked, "Are you a registered voter" "Do you have a favorable opinion on the Obama heath care plan"? But the last question was "Do you have a pro-life stance on abortion" and at this point i still didnt know if it was automated and when i took too long it said to say "yes" "no" or "repeat the question" . As i was saying "repeat the-" it said "thank you for participating"
So what the deuce?! If you actually take the time to do their survey you probably aren't getting your opinion taken correctly.
First of all, these people made a mistake of calling me on Sunday and on top of that, my Google Voice transcribed most of it correctly for me. I don't answer calls from numbers I don't recognized and so they go to voice mail if they want to establish communications with me. So with corrections, here is the entire text. Don't know how they got my mobile cell number either, but I am NOT happy about this...Now I am going to try and find out how this could happen. Guess I'll start with a call to AT&T!
Survey call transcription follows:
"Repeat now. This survey deals with on the most important issues facing our country today. Health care, so let's get right to it. Do you have a favorable opinion of President Obama's government run health care plan? Please say yes no or repeat now. (Paused waiting on reply). On the issue of abortion do you consider yourself to be pro-life? (Paused waiting on reply). This survey will end now without a yes, no, or repeat now response. Thanks for your time. (Then spoke rather quickly) The call to action portion of this survey was paid for by FRC Action. The present survey was authorized and paid for by FRC. (202) 393-2100. Goodbye."

Received call on cell phone asking "Do you support President Obama's "government run" (Their code words) health plan? It was a recording. When I answered YES the call ended. Call occurred on 3/20/2010 at 9;50 a.m. It appears this call was generated in Boise Idaho. I would like to know who sponsored this call
This number is located in Boise, Idaho. Received a missed call from the number shown as 'no name' This is the first time ever receiving a call to my cell number which is private. No message left. This incoming call came in at 12:12pm March 21, 10 which is today. If they are calling about the healthcare bill in Congress, I am against it all the way, it's the worst thing that could ever happen to this country if it passes.
