They used to call it the Falwell game

Back in the early 80's when I was a young punk. I used to read this liberal rag called Maximum Rock and Roll, it was a underground music newspaper basically, it also contained op-ed articles which were for the most part extreme left wing rants (with the notable of exception Mikel Board). I read it for the music reviews, but I also learned about how closed minded liberals are towards other views. Anyway to the point of this soon to be rant on my part.

The editors of MMR used to promote something they called the Falwell Game (after Jerry Falwell one of their favorite targets).  I suggest we start using their own tactics against them. Here is how it works: first pick a target like the Progressive Democrats of America, then you find a few dozen phones to use (back then we had banks of pay-phones everywhere, but a few friends cell phones would be great or work phones) call their 800 numbers and ask for information get them to talk as long as you can stand (800 calls can cost a good chunk of change) and request information to be sent to you, make it known you are thinking of making a large donation or adding the organization to your will. Do this as many times a day that you can, be aware most 800 numbers won't accept calls from the same number more than 3-5 times a day (hence the need for multiple phones) now you make these calls as many times a day as you can stomach it, using a new name and address each time. Getting your enemies to spend precious fundraising capital on dead ends can really hurt them down the road, if you keep notes of the names and addresses you use you can make follow up calls wondering where the materials you requested were at, that is sure to send a new round of trash to the address they have for you. As acorn has shown these people will take any name and address Benjamin Hitler at 1234 Main St will get mail sent to him just have the right zip code for the city you are using. Post Office Boxes are great too (sucks for the people that own the boxes but..) so there you have it. One small thing if done by a few thousand people can drive some of these groups into financial ruin and remove them from the fray.
