Default How do you stop the political promo calls?

If you find a way to stop them, let me know. We get several a day and
they are almost all showing with phone numbers of 000-000-0000. I
just checked and since 10/08 we have had 25 calls, 3 of which were
from people we knew and 1 probable from my doctor.

The big problem is that you cannot actually talk to anyone. I
sometimes slam down the phone but I'm sure there is no living person
on the other end. Makes me feel better. DH has at least once pushed
the 7 or 8 button when they ask for 1 or 2. After a couple of times
the hang up.
