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.

Cowards...

The liberal Death Factory is up and running again...can’t let those infants slip through the cracks, now...

Komen...fighting breast cancer to let adults live...while giving money to the Murder Machine to deny infants a chance to.

Yeah...that’s about right.

Mike Savage was right...liberalism IS a mental disorder.

It’s not that throwing tantrums works. It’s that people who can wield the power of government, writing a private group “urging” them to do something, essentially threatening them with force, works.

What a kick in the face. Now all the donations they got from pro-lifers will go to fund abortions. Wow.

Was only a matter of time.

Hopefully people will reserach their charities more carefully.

I’m sure glad I didn’t reward them yesterday with a donation. Now... they get nothing... ever.

Now it is up to donors. Namely, the donors need to stop sending money to Komen.

Komen is a pretty liberal organization so it is not surprising to see them stay with Planned Parenthood.

The only way to fight liberalism is to starve it to death.

Hardly surprising. Yesterday I said it’s real easy to just make a statement saying you’d quit, and whether they actually did was a totally different issue.

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

Yes.... however only when the media supports what you are tantrumming about!

Democrat thugs to Komen...nice little charity you have here....

This is another blatant example of Democrat extortion.

geez, people.

For all you folks who are disappointed you can’t donate now, you were duped. They never changed their mind on abortion, it’s because they have a policy not to give money to groups under investigation, as PP is now (by Congress).

You really want to help? Don’t throw money at some huge group. Go and volunteer some time reading to kids with cancer. Help someone you know with cancer. Even do some errands for them, pick something up for them. It’s far more satisfying and real to directly help than just to chuck your money at a faceless huge group. You will give more help that way, far more than just sending moeny to others to spend how they want.

Man, stop putting the charity on others to do. Do it yourself. You’ll get more back and you’ll make a real difference right where you live. Geez.

Looks like they didn’t know their own organization. How many of their own local groups denounced them? How many of their own professional experts disagreed with them? Regardless of whether or not it was the right decision, this will go down as a textbook case of how not to prepare an organization for a potentially controversial change. A dozen or so phone calls asking “do you think this is a good idea” would have saved them a lot pain.

So what made them flip?

Was it a threat from the dems of an audit and congressional investigation?

Threats of personal destruction?
