I was just thinking, this defunding of Planned Parenthood by komen, might turn out to be a positive.

Stay with me.

While I find it completely disgusting of the komen foundation stopping their support of Planned Parenthood, their move has put not only them but the actual mission of Planned Parenthood in the headlines.

While the repukes had babbled on and on in the past with their lying in an attempt to paint Planned Parenthood as evil, what komen has effectively done is now given Planned Parenthood an amazing opportunity and platform in which they can spell out exactly what it they do and quash any more bullshit any of the half wit right wing morons can spew.

And frankly, this is what I'm now seeing. komen in this single act of heartless stupidity has given rise to a new awareness of the mission of Planned Parenthood and how they help poor women throughout the United States.

thank you komen for being heartless dolts.

It's not just for women anymore!

I hope you're right. Also, I hope other organizations realize what could happen to them if they decide to succumb to the religious right's pressure.
