What I said to the OFA fundraiser who called me
I told her that there was no use in asking me for a contribution because I had made up my mind and here's what I was going to do.
If President Obama bows to the Catholic bishops over contraceptive coverage, then I will NOT contribute to his campaign.

I politely asked to be removed from the calling list because there is no point in calling me again.
Then I hung up while she was sputtering.
Sadly, I do not expect to be contributing to President Obama's campaign; not after the Plan B chickening out.
