We The People

We the People called me during my brief respite I get when the baby takes a nap, and, the very brief time I get to enjoy watching the Bengals actually win. They immediately started blabbering some pre-recorded message attacking my local Congressman for supporting Tom Delay somehow. I don’t know what they were talking about. I don’t care. They intruded on my personal space during my personal time and I didn’t appreciate it much. So, this is what I did:

Now, this is the way I figure it:
If you have signed-up your home telephone number on the No Call list most telemarketers will be prohibited from calling you.
However, the Kentucky General Assembly included exemptions which allow certain telemarketers to continue to call consumers on the "No Call" list. The exceptions include calls from:
- Telemarketers who have a prior or existing business relationship with you.
- Telemarketers who have received an express request from you to call.
- Telemarketers with whom you have an existing debt or contract.
- Telemarketers soliciting only donations for charities.
- Telemarketers who call your business.
We The People meet none of those exceptions. I expect Greg Stumbo to take some time away from attacking the governor over hiring practices and do something about these people harassing unsuspecting tired daddies trying to enjoy some football.
( I’m not exactly holding my breath. )
