Komen: The Race for the Right-Wing Breast Cancer Cure

Overnight I received four emails as well as BadTux's comment to an earlier post: The Komenies have also cut all support for breast cancer research which uses embryonic stem cells. In 2010, the Komen Foundation gave a skosh under ten million dollars to support stem-cell breast cancer research.

The Komen/Christian Taliban Foundation for Doing Nothing But Raising Money terminated all of those grants as of last November. They tried to keep it quiet and largely succeeded, that is, until the defunding of Planned Parenthood. Planned Parenthood did not go quietly and now people are starting to kick over all of the Komenies' rocks.

As far as Planned Parenthood goes, Mayor Mike has stepped up and pledged to donate $250,000 in matching funds to PP. He will match ever grant of "new money", which I take to mean that if a person who has not previously donated to PP does so, he'll match your donation. I've blasted Bloomberg numerous times in this blog for his megalomania, his nanny-state inclinations and his revocation of two voter-approved term limits propositions so that he could buy a third term of mayor. But he can do good once in awhile and he has this time.

So if you've never donated to Planned Parenthood before, do so and let Bloomberg double your donation.

I gave money. I will continue to do so every month that I have money.
