Sorry, not going to happen in this forum. If you're looking for kumbayah, go elsewhere. Otherwise, own up to your ideology and tell us why this bothers you so much when you're free to commit as much money as you want to Planned Parenthood (which includes abortions).

You're obviously Pro-Life and you are free to have your beliefs just like I am free to have mine - I'm Pro-Choice and don't apologize for that. I didn't dodge the topic considering that I did post articles regarding the anti-abortion stance of the VP of SGK. The Pro-Lifers won this battle, and that's fine.

Yes, I have a problem with one of the largest breast cancer charities taking funding away from an organization that provides services for the indigent who wouldn't otherwise have them due to the politics of the leader of the organization. There were other reasons for why I have personal issues with Susan G Komen (the aforementioned tactics and very little of the money going towards actual research in comparison to their administration costs were other reasons.)

Again, you are entitled to your beliefs just as I am entitled to mine. No need to get so jumpy and looking for a fight, which is what you're obviously trying to do.

Good for them. I may not support everything they do, but I don't support PP at all.

Just sent $25 to Susan G. Komen.

I'm sure everyone that is so outraged will be glad to make up for the $$$ lost by donating their own.

Every action has an equal and opposite reaction.

While the quacks on the Left harp on Komen, i'm confident Komen will see a boost in donations.

Funny how it works like that, huh?

How right you are! I just made a donation to the Susan G. Komen Foundation on line.

Both organizations have seen a boost in donations from either side, so it can work both ways.

And no, I'm not a liberal either. Nice try though...

sad really. Wont be seeing any of my money until they make a formal apology and re-look at the real world.

This is sad and very unfortunate. Thousands of women go to Planned Parenthood when they have no insurance for cervical cancer screening. I know I was one of them. This is truely sad.
