I will now support the Susan G. Komen Foundation even more. I believe the foundation will still help many, many women. I am truly grateful that the foundation has taken a stand against abortion.

I did not have a family practice doctor when I started having issues with my period. I called planned parenthood hoping they could at least refer me to an OBY/GN when they said I could be seen there by one of their doctors. It was the planned parenthood doctor who insisted I get my (very 1st ) mammogram. That was the one that detected my breast cancer and saved my life. I am extremely unhappy with the Susan G. Komen for the Cure’s decision. I have four children. I, personally am pro-life. However, I give other FREE Americans the right to have different believes then me. Christianity is not meant to enslave people to Jesus' teachings. It was a whole lot easy to support Republicans when they truely were the party of small government, more power to states and individuals. The decision a woman made to have an abortion was NOT any of the big bad government's business. BELIEVE me, when you hear you have cancer, your 1st thought isn't an agency's polical leanings.

I absolutely applaud this decision by the Susan B. Koman Foundation! Personally, I can only hope that this wasn't just a politically presuaded move....but an ethical one. The way the media is painting Planned Parenthood as a wonderful resource for preventing breast cancer for women....is preposterous, to say the very least. First of all, there are reputable places to obtain free mammagrams all over this country. Not to mention, that the majority of insurance companies pay the full cost for yearly mammagrams, including free insurance offered to low income women. Planned Parenthoods primary objective is simply:making money and LOTS of it. They make that money by exploiting underpriviledged women, providing them abortions that are unrelated to health and then giving these individuals a low dosage birth control pill to help ensure that they will be a repeat customer! Planned Parenthood does not care about women.....it cares about the bottom line: Millions of taxpayer dollars.....period!

Eleanor Dwight Jones (Social Darwinist) Head of the American Birth Control League If you listen to these fools, NO ONE should have babies no one is perfect in their eyes except for them and their families, and I guarantee you, you nor I are related and neither is about 90% of the population... I will agree their are some medical reasons for having abortions, but if 90% of you lazy females would either keep your legs closed or try something to prevent it like umm oh yeah BIRTH CONTROLL DUH! we wouldn't have to murder all of these unwanted babies! Murder is Murder!!!!

"The second half of our program is to secure the cooperation of the social agencies in these cities in getting the women of the lowest social and economic class to avail themselves of the contraceptive advice offered them... We ... are concentrating on the practical work of making it possible for the lower social classes to practice birth control. For the good of the race, people of poor stock - incompetant and sickly - should have few or no children, and fortunately they want few or no children. In this matter private interest is in accord with public interest. That is the strength of the birth control movement."
