Fuck The Susan G. Komen Foundation: TRAITORS To The Cure
Susan G. Komen will never, ever, ever get another cent from me.
NEW YORK (AP) -- The nation's leading breast-cancer charity, Susan G. Komen for the Cure, is halting its partnerships with Planned Parenthood affiliates - creating a bitter rift, linked to the abortion debate, between two iconic organizations that have assisted millions of women.
The change will mean a cutoff of hundreds of thousands of dollars in grants, mainly for breast exams.
Planned Parenthood says the move results from Komen bowing to pressure from anti-abortion activists. Komen says the key reason is that Planned Parenthood is under investigation in Congress - a probe launched by a conservative Republican who was urged to act by anti-abortion groups.
Komen has made it big. Pink on everything almost automatically means another penny in their pocket. They've pinked out everything possible, right down to the shoelaces on NFL player's cleats. Now they're desperate to protect their status, and instead of spreading out the funds to needy women they're emulating the very worst of this decade's philosophies: "Fuck the poor, research is for the rich."
So there you have it. In order to protect their precious market share the Komen foundation and cunts like Elizabeth Thompson have sold their sisters out. Now it's not about breast exams, not about preventing cancer when it's most curable, it's about their public image. Now that they won't have anything more to do with icky Planned Parenthood they can openly schmooze with the Pro-Life bunch, hold hands and skip merrily off into happy-pink land.
So, from WoS, here's a big fat FUCK YOU to the Susan G. Komen Foundation. Fuck your bake sales, fuck your walk-a-thons, fuck your pink ribbons. You won't get a single cent from me AND I'm going to lecture and spread the news to every one of my friends that you fuckers are as shallow as a coat of pink nailpolish on a cheap hooker.
Cancer doesn't play politics, but apparently you do. So fuck you.

I'm spreading this as far and wide as I can, thanks so much for the COMPLETELY justifiable rant. This is one of the biggest betrayals to women and women's health imaginable and they deserve a very public flogging. BOYCOTT every f**king product with that useless, traitorous pink ribbon on it.

I've said it over and over again, Planned Parenthood is far more than abortions. Abortions might account for a large portion of PP's revenue only because they do so much else for free or low cost. They are good people, doing good work with the threat of physical harm and harassment looming over them.
Skip the pink ribbon and give directly to your local PP. It might save a woman's life.

Well, you'll never get anything out of me again or from my company. You should not have allowed the redneck republican machine and that pal of Sarah Palin to run the show. Good bye to Susan B Komen and the Redneck republican woman killing machine you have associated with. I have just returned about 2000 unprinted shirt stock, and button material that I was going to use for one of your fundraisers. I am instead going to print bumper stickers that will show Susan B Komen going red!!!

I will work tirelessly to make sure that all donations to the Komen Foundation from the State of Texas DRY UP COMPLETELY. YOU PEOPLE ARE POLITICAL WHORES WHO PUT THE REAL WOMEN'S HEALTH ISSUES BEHIND YOUR CRAVEN POLITICS.

Interesting note: Komen founder, Nancy Goodman Brinker, gets approximately a half million yearly salary. Almost equivalent to the money denied to Planned Parenthood.
Wonder what kind of bonus she'll get this year...

Just donated to Planned Parenthood after reading about what Komen did. I will no longer donate to Komen, and will also boycott any company that has any tie-ins with that pink ribbon crap.

Reversal in an attempt to save face is nothing. It just means they're upset that people noticed and cared. Obviously their leadership thinks this was a good idea. They created an entire rule designed to allow them to cut off PP. The outcry started, and they stood fast on the rule.
it wasn't until they started losing sponsorships and funding that suddenly they had a reversal. Threaten to cut them off and people notice. But that doesn't mean the beliefs of the people who made the dumb ass decision changed. They'll just try to find some other way to accomplish the goal that would be less visible to the public.
Until the existing leadership of Komen is fired, not another dime. And even then, they're unlikely to re-earn my goodwill or my money any time soon. PP can have it directly.
Fuck Komen and their two faced anti-women agenda.
EDIT: They haven't changed thier decision. They just said existing funding would continue (as it has to by law) and that PP can reapply for funding when the existing agreement expires. However, because the suddenly invented rule will still exist, PP would be ineligible for funds at that time. In other words, they're hoping to get teh best of both words.
I further reiterate: FUCK KOMEN. Not a dime for those worthless pieces of shit.
