    You can reach the DC office of Ros-Lehtinen at 202-225-3931, if you'd like to see if you have better luck than the President-Election.

    Well, so did she agree to accompany him to the state dinner honoring France's new president or not?

    There won't be any consequences for hanging up on Obama. But hanging up on Rahm? The hit squad has been dispatched to South Florida.

    If she's going to reference to the infamous Palin Prank calls, you'd think she would at least get the country of origin right- it was two radio DJ's from Quebec taking advantage of their natural Quebecois accent and Palin's assumed ignorance of all things not within her narrow realm of knowledge! Where did Florida ever come into that scenario?

    Well, she is one of the few Republicans who supports gay people issues. Though it's likely only because her district covers Key West and South Beach.


    Besides that she's rumored to be Scientologist-y.

    Why is he making his own phone calls? Especially to a GOP congresswoman no one has heard of? I thought he was supposed to be busy.

    Meanwhile, can you imagine how many prank calls she'll get now? She'll probably never talk to Obama again. Or she'll make him remember some weird code to give her every time he calls, like "24601" from her favorite musical. Then he'll be like "246810" and she'll be like, "No, try again," all excited. And then he'll hang up and cut her funding.

    As a Democratic politician, shouldn't Obama have seen The American President? When President Michael Douglas calls Annette Bening and she doesn't believe it's really him, he gives her the White House number and tells her to call him back. Easy!


    Then they have sex on the pool table or something.

    @TedSez: Obama in fact not only saw The American President, but he liked it so much that he borrowed large parts of Michael Douglass's speech for his DNC acceptance speech. I'm pretty sure that he even challenged Senator Rumson at one point, but no one noticed because both Rumson and McCain were kinda old.

    A friend hung up on Al Gore recently. In her office in DC she received a call from a Nashville area code. The caller said, "Oh hi, it's Al Gore." My friend said, "uhhh, what was that?" "This is Al Gore. Uh, can I speak with Rita?" "Sorry, wrong number, bye." She tried to pass it off by saying it was a robocall, but robocalls don't often respond to questions or ask for specific people.


    That said, I wonder if there are indeed paranoid congresspeople in DC wondering about the omnipresent morning radio djs. In high school I was a shameless prankster, but in my old age I still have guilt over the French modeling agent who used to call up kids in my high school and tell them I had my eye on them.
