“Komen can’t be responsible for everything EVERYONE does. That is not their mission...that is yours.”
Komen is responsible for who they support and give money too.
But I appreciate the insult, I guess you don’t feel that people should make informed decisions about the charities they give money too.
Agreed.
I think the next big expose should be of where all the money went for “finding a cure” for cancer, period.
If "health care" is the euphemism du jour for "abortion," yes they do. Planned Parenthood performs a staggering number of abortions compared to the paucity of adoption referrals. Stats for the most recent year are HERE.
About those poor, abettted by Planned Parenthood (many of whose abortion clinics are thoughtfully located in minority communities), their numbers are being decimated: 13 percent of the population has 36 percent of abortions.
Even Jesse Jackson once inveighed against the evil that "health care" providers like Planned Parenthood are too eager to foist upon blacks: In his Letter from a Birmingham Jail, Martin Luther King said, "The early church brought an end to such things as INFANTICIDE." What would Martin Luther King say to the church today? The Rev. Jesse Jackson once said: "That is why the Constitution called us three-fifths human and then whites further dehumanized us by calling us 'niggers'. It was part of the dehumanizing process. The first step was to distort the image of us as human beings in order to justify that which they wanted to do and not even feel like they had done anything wrong. Those advocates of taking life prior to birth do not call it killing or murder, they call it abortion. They further never talk about aborting a baby because that would imply something human. Rather they talk about aborting the fetus. Fetus sounds less than human and therefore abortion can be justified".
Tony Perkins, president of the Family Research Council, noted that while the PPFA reported carrying out a record number of abortions in 2005-2006, it "did not record a single adoption referral." In the previous year, PPFA reported 1,414 adoption referrals, which Sedlak said amounted to one adoption for every 180 abortions. The fact that the organization chose not to release a number for adoptions in the latest fiscal year, he said, meant that "we can only assume the number was so low that Planned Parenthood didn't want to embarrass itself by revealing it." "You will not find the word 'adoption' anywhere in the PPFA's 2005-2006 Annual Report," Scott observed.
