Woman quits job at call center over anti-Obama script

By Amanda Lang

"I was working at the call center," Cole said. "We got a campaign ad talking about how Obama had been part of terrorist attacks on the Capitol, the Pentagon and a judge's home and had ties with Bill Ayers. "Last Thursday, I told them I did not want to read it," Cole said. "They said, 'Either you read it or you go home.' "I told them I wasn't going to read it. They made me go home without pay for the rest of the day."
