Generally I don’t answer calls on my cell phone when the caller withholds their number. However the other morning I did and immediately told the caller I did not talk to people with unknown numbers. The lady told me her name and said she was with the Democratic Party, and said she would like to ask me a few questions. I said, “No thank you,” and closed my phone.
A couple of minutes later she called back. This time I told her, “Look lady my cell number is private, and I don’t talk to people with hidden numbers. Good day!”
On the third call I simple hit the reject button and immediately she called a forth time. Finally my nerves were on end. “Look her lady!” I shouted, “I have told you I don’t talk to people with withheld numbers, and I am going to call the Democrat party about this harassment you are giving me.”
“I am with the Democrat party,” she replied.
“I know this and we have nothing to talk about.”
“I just want to congratulate you.”
“Well I don’t know why you would. Rarely do I ever vote Democrat, and most likely will never vote for your party again. All you people do is harass others, and try to pressure people to see things your way. Just like Obama is doing now. Instead of calling your party headquarters, I am going to email Glenn Beck.”
After saying all this, she didn’t call a fifth time. The lady harassing me was so surprise, and nothing new. This is not the first time I’ve had a heated conflict with those on the other side of the political fence. What puzzles me the most is how the Democratic party obtained my cell number.
If the calls had come from my landline I would understood since this number is in the phonebook. My cell is private, and only give it to friends and family. Never have I put this number on a form or application. We do live in scary times, especially when things that are private have been violated.
