So what. Bring in NEW executives who are dedicated to the true mission of the organization — fighting breast cancer.

What is so hard about this? There ARE other solutions besides herding everyone over to PP for “healthcare.”

The "left" just loves to kill babies. It's one of their highest values.

Do abortion rights activists now want to admit by their disowning of Komen that they don’t actually care about other aspects of women’s health?
 
 
In a word; Yes.
 
It's always been that way. Women's health issues MUST be tied to pro-choice. Otherwise the long knives come out. As the SGK foundation is painfully learning.

Planned Parenthood does not have ANY mammography equipment.

Planned Parenthood does not perform cancer screenings.

All they do is make referrals. The Department of Health, local library and Internet already have that well-covered.

Leftists love THEMSELVES.

Likely, these two women were involved in abortions in some way, directly or indirectly.

When the foundation pulled the funding, that implied that there was something morally wrong with abortion, and that first step on that slippery slope is the slipperiest - the bottom of that slope is the realization that “you committed murder”.

Leftists love themselves, and love to think of themselves as good people. They know they can’t be a “good person” and be a murderer at the same time, so they must squelch any indication that what they did was wrong. This is why pro-aborts HATE, HATE, HATE pro-lifers, because their mere existence points out the murderous intent in the hearts of the pro-aborts.

“Women’s health” is a cover word for abortion for these people.

Whenever you hear the term, you should stop the speaker and question their use of the term -

“do you mean cancer screenings, pap smears, pre-natal care, etc, or do you really just mean abortion?”

Stand firm, Susan G. Komen Foundation!!!! Don’t bow to abortionist pressure!

“Planned Parenthood” is a vile organization with links to the eugenics movement and Nazism. But all the death-cult “liberal” politicians bow and scrape to PP like some sacred cow, just as they bow to that other Nazi-linked death cult, islam.

I’ve supported Komen with significant funds for years but until last year I didn’t know about the Planned Parenthood connection. I had a serious debate with myself about whether to continue my support but decided to continue for at least this year.

I was vastly relieved when they announced they would stop supporting Planned Parenthood. If they reneg on this I will stop sending them money.

I went on the Komen Facebook site and the lib twats are having a melt down over this. What a bunch of evil cry babies.

To the general public it seems that being able to kill your baby is more important than saving your life from breast cancer. Free sex trumps long life.

Are we sure we are representing “women’s health” here, or rather, man’s penis?

I don’t think this was a quickly made decision. I suspect that many in the Komen organization and specifically the board were bothered by the inclusion of PP and they have finally found a graceful way out.

This probably goes back a number years and it is just recently that they decided to go with a low key exit.

PP has really hurt Komen. I know a lot of women who distrust Komen because of their relationship with PP and it will take a few years to build back that trust. I think they made a great decision and executed it beautifully.

Planned Parenthood does not have ANY mammography equipment.

Planned Parenthood does not perform cancer screenings.

Statement one may be true.

Statement two is clearly false. We'll have a better shot at wining the argument without overstating things.

What is the Susan G. Komen site? I’ll go and donate, and tell them it is because they have stopped associating with the pro-infanticide industry.

Actuall Planned Parenthood are taking money OUT OF THE SYSTEM by only making referrals.
The administrative costs alone must be astronomical.

They damn sure are. I had to sign off for a while. They seem to feel entitled to donations for SGK. It's ridiculous on its face. I pointed out that Planned Parenthood doesn't do cancer screenings but they weren't hearing it.

Better get to it quick. Pro-choicers are going to do their best to destroy the Komen organization from here on out.
