Nice try. When you call the number its says its the Republican National Committee -- (202) 863-8500 which is the phone number of the Republican National Committee.

AND

if you go to the Republican National Committee web site the SAME PHONE NUMBER is listed at the bottom of the website
Republican â€Â¢ National â€Â¢ Committee


SO YES THE CALLS WERE REAL!
Figure it out for yourself, I know you still won't believe me. but its on the RNC website and its on the calls. If it wasn't the RNC they would be issuing a rebuttal on their website.

I think AMERICA is going down the tubes if you can't even trust your own people.

Who would have known that there are TRAITOR volunteers in the McCain camp pretending to be with McCain's group!!!!!

This is a very UGLY election. Good Luck, USA.
The USA and its people need more than luck. Thanks though for the wishes.

Now, Democrats will only hear what they want to hear because it is so important to them to have "tax and spenders" at the helm. Especially with a Democratic Congress. AND REPS DONT?

But, it is true that Barack held no animosity toward an admitted domestic terrorist during his career in Chicago. HE KNEW HIM AS A PROFESSOR FROM UIC, NOT WHEN HE WAS A TERRORIST. HE WAS NOT A TERRORIST AT THAT TIME.

Wouldn't you have better judgement ( personally ) than to hang around this kind of person ( Ayers )? WHAT ABOUT MCCAIN'S SHADY ASSOCIATIONS? WHY DON'T YOU DISCUSS THOSE? YOU THINK HE IS MR. INNOCENT.. NOT! HE IS A POLITICIAN!

They appear to have originated from McCain/the RNC:

It is spoofed--- which means it will put in the real phone number, e-mail address, etc. as the sender.

I get spoofed sometimes where someone sends e-mail from my business e-mail account and I never sent those e-mails.


Whenever that happens, I contact the FBI - IC3.

So you don't recycle them?

Obama supporters would not risk making these kinds of robocalls because they would be afraid of people actually believing it. It would make absolutely NO logical sense. Since this is the favorite smear against Obama by the right wingnuts it's pretty obvious who is behind it.
