Folks, I'm perfectly serious: I truly believe they're using the Do Not Call registry as their calling list.  Not just this number - they can get a new number as easily as any of us can - I mean all of these [***] that are cropping up lately.  This one said "Do you have time to answer a couple questions about the election?" and I said "I have enough time to report you to the Do Not Call registry." and he said "That's funny!" and started laughing out loud.  They're getting arrogant and defiant about their violations of the law.

Look here:

Now that just disgusting.  It's perfectly OK for a wide variety of unwanted companies to keep calling.

What we need is a new start: Rather than a Do Not Call list, we need an OK To Call list where, unless we opt IN, it's illegal for them to call us.  The way it's set up now favors the telemarketers.

I like this opt-in idea.  However, all these idiot telemarketers who ignore the current laws would still ignore any variation of such laws.

Just was called by this number. Supposedly a non-profit calling regarding the upcoming senate races (Tester v. Rehberg). As soon as I said I was voting Tester the man on the other line said he couldn't hear me anymore and then said he would mark be down as "undecided" and hung up. Super annoying.

Same situation as Missoula above.  Caller identified self as A&S Inc, and a lady asked same questions.  I said I was undecided.  Short conversation.
