Susan G. Komen for the Cure has made their choice. They hoped to do it quietly and go unnoticed, but that plan has failed. It's now time for you to make your choice. I have made mine and will no longer contribute to Komen.
WASHINGTON — Susan G. Komen for the Cure has quietly resumed funding for Planned Parenthood, two months after the leading U.S. breast cancer charity set off an angry and debilitating debate about abortion rights by cutting off funds to the prominent women's health network.
The Dallas-based Komen foundation said on Friday that its local chapters have awarded grants to at least 17 Planned Parenthood affiliates for breast-cancer screenings and breast-health services for the fiscal year that began on April 1.
The grants are comparable in number and dollar value to what Planned Parenthood received last year, when $680,000 in Komen funds helped about 170,000 women, many of them living on low incomes in areas with few healthcare options.
I'm a little confused. Don't you have it backwards? You meant to say, it's OK to contribute to Komen after all, since they have resumed their (albeit minor) support of women's health?

ReplyDeleteNo. Komen caved to liberal pressure and sided with the evil organization Planned Parenthood.
