The pressure is building on Komen concerning their (correct) decision to stop back-door funding of Planned Parenthood. This despite their prior claims of all donations going directly to cancer research.

Now the meme is that poor people are going to be hurt by this defunding decision. Balderdash.

ADDITIONALLY: a tweet I caught within the past hour from this linked source indicates that the "Top public health official" with Komen-for-the-Cure has resigned over this building controversy.

California Democrat abortion nazis are also voicing their displeasure. This is most probably not over.

It is important that people let Susan G. Komen that good Christians support their decision to defund Planned Parenthood.

Senator Jim DeMint. Paging Senator Jim DeMint. Please pick up the white courtesy phone in the lobby.

Surely you can collect more than two dozen Senators to applaud Komen's decision and offset this 'abortion trumps all' cabal.

That’s 2 dozen Senators that need to be rejected at the polls.

How about Great Leader just issue an edict from on high demaning the Komen organization provide on-demand abortion and give half of all their proceeds to Planned Parenthood? That would solve the problem, right? I mean, it’s not like the Federal Government has limits on private individuals or organizations or anything. Golly people - get with the pogrom.

So contra-intuitive. Groups that have high levels of abortion literally decrease their percentage of the population, breeding themselves out of existence. Natural selection’s a bitch.

[FrdmLvr]

This is the height of incredulity! How does the Congress have ANY sway over who a private entity chooses to make a donation to?

[The Wizard]

screw them all dems like romeny and trump......that trump backed a liar is way too much for me.....

[JimRed]

Two dozen senators, OK. How many of US have contacted them with praise for the move and a promise of financial support if they stay on the right path?

[EEGator]

In other news, 76 Senators did not...

My email (the fifth one) sent about this:

Hi,

Looking at the uproar your decision to defund Planned Parenthood has caused, I say bully for you.

You have your rule. And it's a good, logical, reasoned rule. Planned Parenthood falls within the rule. Planned Parenthood is under investigation. No more money to them.

I just read that a bunch of Democratic Senators are sending you a "toughly worded" letter urging you to reverse your decision. The letter says in part:

It would be tragic if any woman —let alone thousands of women — lost access to these potentially life-saving screenings because of a politically motivated attack.

Obviously, your applying a commonsense rule to Planned Parenthood hardly qualifies as a "politically motivated attack." I would posit the letter itself qualifies as a political attack. I trust you will stand tall against this partisan pressure and not retreat from your decision.

Hold the line!

They will destroy Komen.
