I can’t wait for February, National Prostate Cancer Month. I wonder if the White House will become the Brown House for February.

But, enough!

I could not agree more. I was just extorted at the supermarket for another donation. They make sure every person in line behind you knows whether you say yes or no. I'm very,very tired of it. I've donated plenty to it over the years but have no idea where the money goes, how it's used, the rake-offs by the people who administrate it, etc.

I have a daughter in law who's recently had 3 breast cancer surgeries so it's not as if I'm unaware of the terrors of the disease. I just want accountability and fewer intimidating tactics in my "voluntary" donations.

Our commie “pinko” president will feel right at home living in a pink house. How sad.

It was done before, at least once, during President Bush's time.

They could call it the Nut House. But that would be redundant.

I wonder how much this is going to cost us taxpayers.

That’s appropriate, since the Obama administration is so infested with pinkos.

Just tell them you already gave. If they aren't happy with that reply, screw 'em.

What are they going to do for prostate cancer?

Guessing that won’t ever be a colred ribbon worthy compassion exhibitionist issue.

My mother was recently diagnosed with breast cancer, and if I see another “pink” logo on anything I pick out at the grocery store, I’m going to put it back on the shelf.

It’s no secret that Susan G. Komen affiliates donate to Planned Parenthood.

"Enough!"

There was a big stink last year (2009), when the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force, which is funded and appointed by the Dept. of Health & Human Services (Kathleen Sebelius), came out with a report that it wasn't necessary for women over the age of 50 to get a mammogram every year. This task force is supposed to be impartial, but I find it hard to believe there is anything impartial in any part of Obama's government. Now they want us to believe they are concerned about breast cancer?

You miss my point. They’re attempting to shame people into donating, which I won’t tolerate. Lots of people would rather kick in a few bucks than to give your answer or mine, which was: “I might give some money to prostate cancer research.”
