And this is why the left is successful. Throwing tempertantrums still works.

I don't get how giving in to people who hacked your website to mock you is in your best interest. But whatever. Komen looks like a joke. And since I detested how they spent the money they raise (lots of waste) I don't feel bad about not giving them any.

so.. PP gets more money than ever - they get all the money pledged sonce Koman withdrew their grant (Including bloonberg’s matching contribution) and they get the origional money from Komen.

remind me not to give to Komen.

Well, AT LEAST, many people are now more aware of where their donation money could end up.

Some nasty people within the culture of death...

Incredible. I wrote them an e-mail supporting their decision to stop giving to PP, and I’m sure many others did too. They actually do good work, aside from that, and it’s really sad to see them putting their priorities on a project that is not even their own.

But to Dems, abortion is a sacrament and PP is its church.

Komen and Planned Parenthood did this to extract money from Pro Lifers and use that cash to murder babies.

So the Susan G Komen group supports abortion. Now any company that supports Susan G Komen is just as guilty as them for supporting abortion.

I see a massive drop in their donation jars.

I was considering giving money to Komen, but I wanted to see if they had the guts to hold.

They didn’t.

Glad I waited.

So, the pro-death people win. No money to Komen from me, EVER. I’m horrified.

As far as I’m concerned, all these “cure” organizations are scams.

I’m trying to find their contact info to demand my donation back as it was generated under false pretenses. Their donantions doubled over two days, make them return the money. Make it hurt.

Very very foolish of them. They raised the awareness greatly of this issue, and now have pulled the rug out from people who were coming to their defense.

I think they will see a very strong backlash.

The only good that can come of this is that the link between the Komen Foundation and the culture of death has been exposed for all the world to see.

Ye shall know them by their fruits.

Therefore... anyone who donates money to the Komen foundation, or buys any of those ubiquitous pink-marked products is supporting abortion — end of story.

A hundred specks of truth used to float one lie, or how a little leaven spoils the whole loaf.

NO DONOATIONS TO KOMEN

I applaud people who donate their time and money to a cause as worthy as fighting cancer. However, now the Komen Foundation
has caved to the biggest baby killer group in the U.S. I will no longer give one penny to them to support abortion.
And I am sick and tired of seeing pink on every professional baseball and football player for an entire month
every year. Pink bats, pink gloves, pink shoes. Enough already!

let’s not forget how Komen’s donations skyrocketed since they announce no more PP funding. One wonders if they’ll return all that money???

Now for my little tantrum. I won’t buy any product with that pink ribbon on it.

Reading into this that they will continue to explore ways to get away from future grants to PP. What a mess. Reading the posts on facebook, SGK has managed to piss off people on all sides of the issue. At least the issue has been raised and has even given traction to the issue of PP supporting the Girl Scouts. Yay for that.
