Susan G. Komen gets double slapped!

Members of Planned Parenthood and more than 20 other organizations hold a rally in support of preventive healthcare in Washington, D.C., in 2011. Planned Parenthood says the cut in funding results from Komen bowing to pressure from anti-abortion activists. Komen says the key reason is that Planned Parenthood is under investigation in Congress.

So, we've already slapped the Susan G. Komen organization here before, but we must not have done so hard enough because they earned another hard one today.

Recently, Susan G. Komen announced it will no longer provide grants or grant assistance to Planned Parenthood (see a full article here:   NPR full story )  What does this mean? Well, it means that Planned Parenthood will have to cut down on providing.... wait for it..... mammograms.  

Just brilliant Susan G.   You want to save the boobies but have ended contribution to fund preventative steps that help do just that.  And why?  Because of a political l inquiry by Congress lead by an anti-abortion representative from Florida.  

This is flabbergastingly frustrating.  

Today, Susan G Komen, your organization gets the first official Daily Bitchslap repeat slappage.
