With so many women having limited resources in need of help regarding female reproductive health care, a small group of finger-wagers tries to cut off all clinical help and they would sentence these ladies to a death by cancer to prove they are in control of ALL WOMEN. Sounds like something we would expect form a country in the middle east.
The push back by women that hold their sisters well being higher than some quasi=political/religious group may be a wake up call.
February 5, 2012 at 3:13 p.m.And some people wonder how cults are able to brainwash their followers! Like P.T. Barnum said, "there's a sucker born every minute."
February 5, 2012 at 11:13 a.m.I can't believe some of the idiotic comments on this subject. Even though my grandmother passed away from breast cancer, she received services for diagnosis and treatment through Planned Parenthood! They were diligent, compassionate, and never once did their focus stray from her needs! Until all you "pro-lifers" who advocate for the "sanctity of life" adopt one of the many, many children who need a home, then just pipe down.
February 4, 2012 at 8:12 p.m.as of 2010, here's the fact sheet of services. Seems abortion is only 3% of what they do.

February 4, 2012 at 2 p.m.It's main purpose is not abortion, which makes up apprx. 3% of that they do.

February 4, 2012 at 1:48 p.m.In my opinion, Komen should have never been a cash donor to Planned Parenthood. If Komen donated actual mammogram machines instead, there would be no question about how the donation was used.
February 4, 2012 at 11:42 a.m.The purpose of the Susan Koman charity is very explicit in its promos..wipeout CANCER.... Planned Parenthood is not an avenue for its clients to look into breast cancer. It's purpose mainly is for abortion. It's clients could always go to Susan Koman for official locations to check for breast cancer screenings, but for Susan Koman to give Planned Parenthood a check for this service when their main goal is death of the unwanted child. Surely, everyone knows all funds go into their general fund of expenses.
February 4, 2012 at 10:51 a.m.The real Komen charity is reveled, her salary tells you also that this charity is a scam. Suppose to support breast cancer, not kill unborn children, who supports them?
