So, not so simple.
Again, sick of the argument. YOU believe there are two bodies. Don't force your BELIEFS on me. So, yes, very simple.

Imagine that.

And I'm not saying that's bad - it just is what it is for everyone.
Well, there was that small matter of their inconsistency regarding their continuing to fund other organizations that are also under investigation.
And the perception that personal preferences were playing too large a role in an organization that many believed was, and should be, operating from a platform of caring for all in need of cancer screenings and not just those who shared their political views.
I think that it is the latter that really provided the catalyst for the outrage, and, I don't believe for a minute that it was only people on the 'left' who felt betrayed.

You mean this:
Quote:
Citing no evidence whatsoever, Fox News host Sean Hannity baselessly claimed that Cass Sunstein, director of the White House Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, "wants to... force sterilizations." Hannity has previously echoed other right-wing commentators in offering similar, false attacks on White House science and technology adviser John Holdren.
You need to stop listening to/watching garbage

Wow, congratulations to Komen for breaking under pressure.

SGK reversing its decision regarding PPH is good news ONLY if SGK feels that choice is the best for them and did not make it due to force by those whom have been so nasty about their decision. You know....those whom feel that it is their right to decide what to do with other peoples/businesses money. Which is typically the mantra from the left.

SGK can do whatever they want with their money, just make sure that those who contribute are fully aware of their right wing agenda.

For the first time in fifteen years, I will not be involved in anything to do with Susan B Komen foundation, unless the organization gets out of politics.

Default Komen reverses course on Planned Parenthood

Komen drops plan to cut Planned Parenthood grants - Yahoo! News

I think that they should have delayed this a little bit longer to let more people donate to Planned Parenthood. The donations were really swelling in the last few days.
