You won. You got what you wanted. Get over it already!

By Scott Tibbs, April 12, 2012

Earlier this year, Leftists were furious with the Komen Foundation for deciding not to fund Planned Parenthood. The nation's leading abortion provider launched a blistering attack on Komen, and PP's supporters began withdrawing support for the breast cancer charity.

Komen quickly reversed course, announcing that they would continue to fund Planned Parenthood. If you're a PP supporter, mission accomplished, right? You got what you wanted, you got your funding, and now it is time to move on and continue your "valuable work" for women.

If that's what you think, you would be wrong.

No, the fact that Planned Parenthood got their money (in addition to the free flow of taxpayer dollars from every level of government) isn't good enough. Komen must be punished for this blasphemy.

The Channel 13 in Indianapolis and the Indianapolis Star report that registrations are down 30% for the upcoming Komen walk in Indianapolis, and that fundraising has dropped by 18% compared to last year. The reason? Komen's decision to stop funding Planned Parenthood - a decision that, again, was quickly reversed.

This is what we are dealing with, folks. Planned Parenthood and its supporters are so vindictive and hateful that they are still punishing Komen for a decision reversed two months ago - meaning they are ultimately punishing women with cancer. This is disgusting, despicable and shameful. It's not enough that Planned Parenthood bullied Komen into giving them more money. No, an example must be set so that no one dares stand against Planned Parenthood.

What about the women who are helped by Komen's work? They do not matter to Planned Parenthood and its supporters. They can be tossed aside in order make an example out of and punish Komen.

This is the face of the modern abortion industry. Planned Parenthood has revealed again what they really are.
