I just became disabled over the last couple years and am now on full disability for the rest of my life. This "man" didn't know I was a Dem because I just went along with what he said. He asked me for $100.00 and I explained my situation. I have gone from $35 thousand a year to $11 thousand a year (which is better than nothing and I am thankful to get it). He then went into another speech about how we have to make sure Bush is reelected, the dems are such liars and thieves, they are unAmerican, etc. It took everything in me not to tear his head off over the phone; however, I figured he would just hang up. I just wanted to hear what kind of stuff they are telling each other. I then asked him again did he not hear me explain about how my income is now 1/3rd of what it was? He said yes, he had, but maybe I could donate $25. I told him I don't have $25 in my bank account now. He just kept going on and on and on about the money. He was not listening to me at all. I finally told him I wouldn't vote for Bush if he was the last idiot on Earth and hung up.
I hoped the Democratic Party would have a little more understanding regarding the situation most of the Country is in. I would make a complaint if I were you. Whoever that person is, she is going a little over the top, and needs a little training on how to respond to people who cannot pay anything. Plus, it's not just your future, it's all of our futures, but you cannot get blood from a turnip either.
