Komen has known since last Spring that P.P. doesn’t do mammograms. In emails Susan G. Komen for the Cure was sending to people complaining about their grants to the P.P. abortion business, officials claim the grants are given to help women obtain breast cancer screenings. Yet, Komen also admitted P.P. doesn’t do mammograms.
Planned Parenthood is not what you think. There Mission Statement doesn't match the services they provide. People assume that Planned Parenthood is solely supported by public donations and gifts from foundations such as the Susan G.Komen Foundation but that is not the case. I urge you to call or write Planned Parenthood and ask for a copy of their federal form 990 and see where they make their operating funds. Find the true FACTS.
Whether PP offers mammograms or not most of these cancer things go overkill half of the time. Tired of seeing everything pink, I've even seen pink labeled food at the grocery store & magnets & a billion other things, cancer is a serious thing not a sideshow to make money off of. Cancer runs in my family, the last thing i'd want to see is a bottle of dried oregano in pink that claims it's all for cancer, cut me a break.
The Komen Foundation and all the walks are a joke. The money isn't going where you think it is and the walks only make the walkers feel like they are contributing.
Considering that Penn State is under investigation related to the Sandusky scandal, shouldn't SGK be pulling their 7.5 million dollar grant for cancer research to PSU?
Republican politics and Komen. Never will support again. To let women with breast cancer die will not be tolerated. The komen foundation deliberately changed their rules so they could defund planned parenthood. Its a Republican scandal. I will never purchase a grocery product again with their endorsement on it.
Are these the damn idiots that have the NFL players wear the stupid pink crap for a month and have other pink shit for the NFL? It's pretty stupid and annoying and makes me NOT want to donate any money to them for breast cancer research. So this isn't surprising that the dumbass in charge of this organization pulled this ignorant move.
It's your choice whether to support them, it doesn't actually matter because they're still one of the biggest breast cancer advocacies around, and will probably get even more popular once the PP stigma has been removed.
This is a very serious issue and an example of how evangelicals victimize and kill woman , children in order to please God. It happened in the Philippines (2007) when Bush cut funding to health care clinics, with the support of the Catholic church, leading to the deaths of tens of thousands of women and children. 7 women die each day in the Philippines due to child birth complications. The Catholic church and Evangelicals agree and believe that birth control is the same as abortion.
1. US Congress pass sanction on Iran. Promoted by pro - Israel groups in US.
2. Europe follow suit even though it destroys member countries like Greece, Italy, Portugal & Ireland which are already in economic hardships. Now as oil imports from Iran are banned, price of goods & services will go up. More hardships for the European people.
This Lizz Winstead obviously has no clue whatsoever about Planned Parenthood. Planned Parenthood does not offer breast screening, they do not offer mammograms, nor any service connected with women's breast health. It was a complete waste of funding for Susan G. Komen for the Cure to give money to Planned Parenthood. Planned Parenthood is a fraud for taking money in the name of offering services that they do not provide. Lizz, wake up!!! Susan G. Komen for the Cure is for BREAST HEALTH!!!!!!
@christopherse2 If what you say is true then SGK should have simply said so (and provided proof) and demanded their money back. The fact that they didn't shows that what you are saying is false.
@christopherse2 your entire comment is a pure fabrication. You say Planned Parenthood doesn't offer breast screenings? Care to offer a single shred of evidence for that?
How odd then that Komen didn't mention this as their justiifcation for cutting off funding? Perhaps because it's a laughably false claim?
3% of Planned Parenthood is abortion. 17% is breast cancer prevention, so Planned Parenthood is MORE about breast health than abortion.
@christopherse2 here's a thought. Go to the Planned Parenthood website, and enter your zipcode (on the front page). You'll get referred to your nearest clinic. Not all offer mammograms, but many do. You claim this is a lie. I ask you provide evidence. Komen itself does not claim PP doesn't do mammograms. Neither do pro-life groups who HATE PP. You wanting to pretend otherwise is the intellectual equivalent of putting your fingers in y our ears and yelling "LALALALA".
@LynxChan I work in a breast center, and I already know that there is no Planned Parenthood that offers any legitimate mammogram. If you choose to be ignorant, that is not my fault and has nothing to do with me. So the projection of the fingers in ears and yelling just makes you look foolish. for obvious reasons.
@LynxChan They may facilitate a localized place for private doctors and screening companies to do screenings, but that is not the same thing as Planned Parenthood actually providing the screening.
