Dozens Of Call Center Workers Quit Over McCain Attacks

Talking Points Memo:

At least three dozen workers at a telemarketing call center in Indiana walked off the job rather than read an incendiary McCain campaign script attacking Barack Obama, according to two workers at the center and one of their parents.

Nina Williams, a stay-at-home mom in Lake County, Indiana, tells us that her daughter recently called her from her job at the center, upset that she had been asked to read a script attacking Obama for being "dangerously weak on crime," "coddling criminals," and for voting against "protecting children from danger."

THOSE are real Americans!
Can we set up a fund to make up for their lost day's pay?

The Future of America is looking brighter by the day.

I wonder if we should try to set up a fund to help these people, because for them to even have taken a job like this they must be hurting economically, but how?

[trucap]

Americall indeed! just another Stalin wannabe masquerading as a capitalist - spread the filth and fire the people

[bluekatz]

Good for them. I hope the rest of America will send these fools packing. Now if these young people see that this is wrong what is wrong with the older adults? Are they just stup*d or what? The nastiness has hit a wall and people are truly sick and tired of this mag.got's sewer run.

[CeeCee]

Now this is moral courage!

[UnderdogSRD]

McCain - helping people lose their jobs before he's even elected...­.

[payos]

that's a great line...

Good for the Indiana call center workers!!

The McCain campaign has caused hard working Americans to forfeit their wages.

[PinkyBear]

I am heartened to hear that people are willing to quit on principle. It makes me believe in people again. I think America is awakening from a terrible dream.

[aussiechick]

and not a minute too soon!!

Thank you to all of you. I commend you. This is what Sarah Palin should have said to the DNC before going out on the stump repeating those horrible decisive statements that they wrote for her to perform. But, as we have all come to realize she has no heart or class!!
