Gah!

I've received phone calls from both NARAL & NOW asking for donations. I told both of them that I support their causes, and that I've filled out nearly all of the e-petitions they've sent me since joining. The man that called from NARAL was far more understanding about my situation (without going into great detail about it) as to why I cannot donate. The woman that called from NOW asked if I could just give $15. Well, normally this isn't a problem, but I tried to explain to this woman that 1) I'm a college student living on financial aid and 2) my car just broke down. She made some comment about, "Well, you'll just have to try harder." Dammit, bitch. I am trying, but no offense, when it comes to me getting my education, and you hitting me up for money to do god knows what with to keep Alito & Roberts off of the Supreme Court, wouldn't it be in your best interest, oh I don't know, maybe to call those people that aren't in college rather than telling me to try harder. I wonder how woman positive it would be for me to go whore myself out for money and donate it to NOW. Wonder if that woman would feel the same way then. Of course, I wouldn't do that, but you get the point.
