I wish my kids were older so they could tie up the phone line.

There is always phone sex lines for you.

Second Maxim - "Be willing to exchange a bad idea for a good one."
Second Corollary - "You can only be wrong or agree with me."

A terrorist which starts a slaughter quoting Locke, Burke and Mill has completely missed the point.
The fact remains that the only person or group to applaud the Norway massacre are random Islamists.

Publish lists of proscription then take all that they own.
I have come to believe that the whole world is an enigma, a harmless enigma that is made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth.

Invite them over for dinner. Then, eat them.

Serious answer:  either tell them you WILL vote for the candidate, or tell them you are a dedicated voted for the opposing candidate.  The keep calling because they have you on a list of "undecideds".

I tell them point blank I am not voting for brown. They just won't stop. Nice Ed tried to be polite. Now evil Ed has been awoken.

Always respond with 'what you wearing?'  It'll end soon.

Tell them your detailed gay fantasies about their candidate.

Got a call at breakfast time. Gave the phone to one of the twins and told her to tell the man about my little pony.

I have introduced unrestricted pony warfare.

I keep getting political survey calls of various kinds, including once from Bloomberg.  That gives me great confidence in the sampling techniques used by pollsters.   :rolleyes:

I have learned the hard way that the best way to deal with them is to hang up.  Without fail, all of them are far too long, and the person on the other end of the line will say any blatant lie to keep you on the phone.

I just hope that's not a euphemism
