Covert Seattle-area Republican infiltration opportunity

Fri May 21, 2004 at 10:19:23 AM PDT

It turns out my Republican "team leader" alter ego has been enlisted to do some phone calling on behalf of our fabulous president.  I've gotten notifications of several phoning parties in the Seattle area.  This is a great opportunity to tell Republican donors how excited we are about how well we are spreading democracy in the Middle East, about our fabulous new manufacturing jobs at McDonalds, and how we can preserve the environment by changing the definition of wilderness to "strip-mined and clear cut barren wasteland".

More importantly, it is an opportunity to acquire some very useful phone lists...  I have waited until the day before the event to post this, so that they will not have time to prepare any counter-measures.  This is your mission, should you choose to accept it.  I recommend either business or church attire.

  •  Tip jar (4.00 / 6)

    How's my opposition research?
  •  hmm (none / 0)

    Maybe we could have a pool on how many phone calls you could make before they tossed you out? :)
  •  It's a low-down dirty trick ... (none / 0)

    And as a Seattle Democrat, I won't be a part of it.

    Would you want Republicans to do the same infiltration of Kerry phonebanks?  No?  Then don't do it.

    If my experience with Dean phonebanking is any guide, you will have to sign an agreement before they let you touch any phonelists.  You will have to promise to represent BC04 in good faith, and you will not be allowed to disseminate phonelists.  If you break this agreement, it is illegal and you can be sued.

    Even if it weren't illegal AND unethical, it could backfire in so many ways that it simply isn't worth it.
