6 CENTS of every 100 DOLLARS. Yup, that is all PP was getting from the Komen Foundation

Same with ABC news, Diane Sawyer with her stupid breathless whining.

You have to hand it to liberals: when one of their sacraments is threatened they will go into the gutter and street-fight to the death to defend it.

I'm almost envious.

Multiple studies have linked abortion to increased risks of breast cancer, since interrupted pregnancy prevents proper breast development (from non-nursing to nursing). For each annual donation and roughly 2000 abortions, Komen Foundation contributed to at least a few cases of breast cancer.

You are of course correct in that they don’t own a mammogram machine, but their point is they pay for mammograms.

NO THEY DON'T. They refer women to free clinics that do mammograms and that doesn't cost them a penny.

Of course, money being fungible, a dollar sent to PP for mammograms means they have another dollar for abortions.

Yet you downplay the significance of the money Komen gave them.

Time to support Komen for doing the right thing even though they arae years late in making the move.

I will acknowledge that they did stopped doing the wrong thing, but not participating in evil is not enough to deserve praise.

There are other groups that don't spend millions promoting themselves and use the donations they receive to actually research breast cancer cures, Komen doesn't.

We need an IGNORE button. Now I remember why I took a year off from here.

Not quite. I saw that the local in Orange county is still giving $120,000 to their PP.

The Komen Foundation has stopped funding this stuff. Donate to them to encourage them

My wife is a 2-time breast cancer survivor.. we have been big supporters of the Susan G. Komen foundation..

I WILL continue to support them, now that they've CUT ties to PP... but, I would not have given them the time of day had they not taken this action,

GOOD for them!

“Komen” is a liberal political activist organization. The hell with em. They PURPOSELY ignore the abortion BC link. Do the research.

“BRIAN WILLIAMS thought it important enough to lead with and admonished how women wouldn’t be able to get breast exams now.”

The Suits at NBCABCCNN ect... led with it because of the emotional impact the story presents which becomes an exercise that shapes perception along with a subject that causes division (Which attempts to garner ratings).

“Fast and Furious”, hiding corruption of “anointed” regimes/individuals as well as shunning other “truths” is spiked to oblivion amongst the mass media brigade.

This is hardly a new revelation and should be expected.

Komen is a business not a charity. Far more people, let alone women are killed by other forms of cancer.
