Komen Funding Flap Exposes Planned Parenthood's Lie
Investor's Business Daily ^ | 2/3/2012 | IBD Staff

On the surface, the Komen Foundation's reversal of its Planned Parenthood grant cut-off shows the left's power to enforce conformity. What it really reveals is that Planned Parenthood doesn't need taxpayer support.

I’m not so sure the whole thing wasn’t a scam to begin with.

Komen, United Way, and so many other "charities" have been fully infiltrated by the left and are just front organizations for funding them.

This has exposed Komen.

Planned Parenthood got their baby killer cadre to squeal like stuck pigs....To intimidate Komen into caving. Many disgraceful Democrat hacks were in this chorus. Beyond disgusting but this passes for normal in much of America

Komen has already reversed that decision.

Komen only cares about cancer of the breast and not cancer of the soul. Killing cancer of the breast and the ‘fetus’ cancer of the uterus is their equivalent. All hail unholy mother Planned Parenthood. More like planned infanticide...just keep the dollars rolling in. Hades awaits...

I won’t give a dime to Komen. By giving money to PP, it allows PP to take Fed money and use it for other than abortions. They take the Komen money and use it for abortions so they can say they are not using Fed money for abortions.

Exactly. In particular, there is a strong emphasis on infants of a few selected races. Sort of weeding out the inferior and undesirables, as the Planned Parenthood folks believe.

Planned Parenthood warned of devastation, saying "more women will experience unintended pregnancies and face potentially life-threatening diseases..."potentially life-threatening diseases"? - every abortion is a definite life-ending procedure, yet PP celebrates their participation - when ideology gets in the way of reality, logic and wisdom go out the window.....
