Jesus Christ, he said what??  “Politics have no place in health care.”

What about that little thing called the PPACA.

“Breast cancer screening saves lives and hundreds of thousands of women rely on Planned Parenthood for access to care. We should be helping women access that care, not placing barriers in their way.” 

How is Komen placing barriers in the way? Too bad no one told him Planned Parenthood doesn’t perform mammograms.

As a proud father of 5 children, all with my first and only wife, congratulations Mr. Mayor.

Truely a remarkable gesture. Good man.

@Kevin – it’s his own money… he can do with it what he wants.  

How is Komen placing barriers in the way?

You really don’t want to know the answer so what’s the point.
Anyway, here it is, because PP offers services to women that are too poor to go anywhere else.

“Planned Parenthood doesn’t perform mammograms.”

No but they give the person (men can get breast ca too) a referral to a clinic that does.

Whatever, the Susan B. Komen Foundation is Pro-Life yet they’ll let women die for want of screening.

Makes perfect sense.

I went to planned parenthood almost 20 years ago when I needed birth control and did not know where else to go. I was 17 and did not want to go to my family doctor for fear he would tell my mother. They taught me how to give myself a breast exam 20 years ago and also supplied one along with my annual exam which checked for infections or cancers. Many people talk about PP without having known anyone who ever visited the clinic. I never had an abortion and that was not the reason I sort them out. PP does provide abortions but not everyone who goes there is seeking an abortion. The demonizatioon of a womens healthcare organization is absolutely unbeleivable to me especially from people who want government out of thier own personal lives.

By politcs, do you mean the gov’t passing a law forcing me to pay for something i do not want. 

 And this is why Bloomberg will never be President, no matter how much money he uses to buy the election.

Government shouldn’t exist to support programs that I, personally, do not support.

You should have gone to your parents. And your family physician could not have told your parents. That’s called patient-client privilege.

Government supports a bunch of programs that individuals will not support. I don’t like farm subsidies. I don’t like corprate tax supsidies. I don’t like subsidizing oil drilling in the US which may cause major disasters. I don’t like the death penalty. We elect people that make policy for the greater good of the nation or majority of people, not just individuals. This issue however is not about government as they do not pay for abortions. This issue is about politics being played with PP who has been made to be enemy number 1 this congressional cycle.

 I don’t like farm subsidies either. However, if you get rid of farm subsidies, you will need to get rid of green energy subsidies. I also do not like corporate tax subsidies. However, until you have tax reform, you will need the corporate tax subsidies. I don’t like the death penalty either. Or at least, I’m indifferent on it.

So as I said, I do not support my monies going to an organization that also provides abortions. PP’s abortion side could brand off into it’s own charity organization and people would be “ok” with the other side. Taking a life is personal. I shouldn’t be charged for that.

 You mean like my Tax Dollars to fund Religion, as in “Faith Based Initiatives” via Executive Order signed by Bush 1/29/01

I’d vote for Bloomberg over any of the GOP candidates.

They do perform screening.  

Because he’s almost as big a di__ as Trump when it comes to blowing with the wind.

Some of these clinics are in areas where women and girls have to no access to other clinics without insurance.  

$250,000?

Mitt Romney says $374,000 is “not very much.”

RINO

Bloomberg. Now there’s an abortion I think we all would have payed for!

Breast exams and screenings by doctors and nurses and they give referrals for mammograms.

You do not want healthcare? Are you a robot that never gets sick?
PS: Bloomberg was obviously talking about apolitical charities.

You obviously are an out of touch person. How many people in this country do you think have “family physicians?” That is the exact ethos of PP. To provide for the under-privileged. Last i checked, one of govt’s roles is to enhance the general welfare of it’s people. 

“Government shouldn’t exist to support programs that I, personally, do not support.”

Idiotic statement. Govt would never exist if each individual said the same thing. You think liberals like having their tax money going to expand the military establishment, wars, executions etc? It’s why we are a republic.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_Welfare_clause#United_States

Try not to be an idiot all of your life.

Bloomberg, a walking, talking abortion. Is that better?

I admire Mayor Bloomberg for stepping up and helping out Planned Parenthood.

 So then Bloomberg shouldn’t have been talking about PP. If you separate PP into two separate entities, then they will be apolitical.

I don’t mind the positive sides of PP. I dislike the abortion side of PP.

 I live in the state with the best health care practices. No need to talk to me about health care practices.

The role of government is to provide the public with the means to create its own general welfare.

War is not political. Tell people that actually work in desolate conditions overseas about your thinking that war is political in nature and they will scream at you. Be proud that you live in the most well-off nation, even with our poor.

Actually you’re not the most well-off nation.
I’m a french canadian and I can tell you that socially speaking,we’re better off  here.No war on women up here these days,and if you get sick you don’t go bankrupt.
But hey, you still have the most amazing,entertaining politics and media in the world.And of course, there is hollywood to make us forget you’re actually fat.But still,I’m fascinated by your country.
You got all the extremes,all of them.
Truly entertaining to watch.

“I live in the state with the best health care practices. No need to talk to me about health care practices. ”

Where is the data? Source? You don’t get to say stuff without providing CREDIBLE evidence. You are a well known liar. Last webMD data in 2007 didn’t even place WI in the top 5!

“The role of government is to provide the public with the means to create its own general welfare.”

Sophistry. 

“War is not political. ”
Thank you for shredding any credibility you may have had. 

Do you know why WWI, WWII, Korean and Vietnamese etc wars were fought? War is VERY political. There’s a reason why leftists were vehemently protesting Vietnam in the 60′s and LBJ refused to run again in 68. 

Our own civil war was because of POLITICS. OMG!

Huh? Why shouldn’t he talk about an organization he supports? He also supports SGK. Many liberals supported both with no problems till this dumb move.

That was a repulsive comment!!

No, it was not!!

You’re a woman and are against women getting the medial care the need that could save their lives?? 

Abortion is legal in this country, whether you like it or not!!

Furthermore, who are you to tell anther person what to do… when it doesn’t affect you at all?

A Republican with intelligence… amazing!!

That’s only 3% of services. I like what most of what oil companies do but not when they pollute our rivers.    

Good idea to keep the goyim population under control!

Didn’t you know? WC stands for Without a Clue.

Yes, it was.

 Wow
I thought you were better.
My bad.

None of our presidents backed a womens right to choose?
 Are you clueless?

oh, wait…

 You do know who your talking to, right?

Government shouldn’t exist to support programs that I, personally, do not support.

Just you?

I don’t like Faith Based Initiatives.
I don’t like paying for war.
I don’t like the war on drugs.

 Very rational.
Cheers.

But he is a RINO, do you know. :)

Why should an organization founded to raise money and educate on breast cancer donate to PP? Neither of your reasons support why they should be demanding money or feel they are owed money from Komen.

“they’ll let women die for want of screening” *eyeroll*

they do manual exams. that doesn’t mean they have a right to demand funds from Komen. Komen gives money to facilities that perform mammograms.

This is one Republican I will gladly vote for.

You couldn’t however Bloomberg could probably pay for your entire family’s abortions.

Romney never donated to Planned Parenthood & he can’t be president either no matter how much he tries to buy elections either. What’s your point?

Agreed, we should base government spending on programs that only you support, no one else’s opinions should matter.

Like a new Twins stadium for a team that hasn’t won a playoff game in 10 years & lost 99 games last season?

Is PP cheaper than free clinics?

Poor Sara, if you’re going to be plump at least be smart. Being plump & dumb makes you worthless as a woman.

Who are you to have a problem with Komen doing what they want to do?

Those who support the willful killing of the pre-born of their own species never cease to amaze me. Why stop there, oh never mind I forgot about turning a viable baby to breach, partially delivering it until the baby is delivered with the exception of the head and then severing the spinal cord.

Cold, cold hearted……….

Breast exams are not limited to mammograms.

They aren’t ‘demanding’ funds; they’re upset that the funds were suddenly cut.

Dude, come on.

Unfortunately that’s the result of living in a society with other people, each with their own needs.

Hell, I don’t drive so why is Bloomberg spending my tax dollars on repairing roads I don’t need?

She was a minor so the doctor would have been able to tell her parents.

ALL war is political.

I do now!! =)

Sadly, I’m sure Sara agrees with me on this given her views on feminism.

And yet you voted for Obama. I’d say that’s an interesting study in psychology.

Kinda like, when he payed for your mothers?

I’m surprised you got it….Sparky!

He’s a registered independent.

Is Bloomberg a racist?

The largest number of the aborted in the US are African-Americans; Margaret Sanger gets her wish…

Sanger, on blacks, immigrants and indigents:”…human weeds,’ ‘reckless breeders,’ ‘spawning… human beings who never should have been born.”  Margaret Sanger, Pivot of Civilization, referring to immigrants and the poor

On sterilization & racial purification:Sanger believed that, for the purpose of racial “purification,” couples should be rewarded who chose sterilization. Birth Control in America, The Career of Margaret Sanger, by David Kennedy, p. 117, quoting a 1923 Sanger speech.  

On the purpose of birth control:The purpose in promoting birth control was “to create a race of thoroughbreds,” she wrote in the Birth Control Review, Nov. 1921 (p. 2)

On the rights of the handicapped and mentally ill, and racial minorities:”More children from the fit, less from the unfit — that is the chief aim of birth control.” Birth Control Review, May 1919, p. 12

Margaret Sanger, the “saint” of birth control and Planned Parenthood (But she and her views have been “cleaned-up” for today’s use.)

Oh, almost forgot this one,

“The most merciful thing that a large family does to one of its infant members is to kill it.” Margaret Sanger, Women and the New Race (Eugenics Publ. Co., 1920, 1923)

Question: Is this “killing” in the womb or out of it? Doesn’t “infant” imply that the child has already been born?

Bloomberg a racist?

See, anyone can play the race card!

Nice move by Bloomberg to slide his little but back into the good graces of the ladies after his cluster f^ck handling of OWS last summer. Like he said “it’s good to be a 1%”.

Once again the people have rose up and put the lying hypocrites in your place. The t-bag movement died the day when OWS started. In the future this will be your bread and butter,
rebuke after rebuke all the way to Nov. 6. And it will be the vote of the same women that have had enough of your BS that will send you straight to political hell. If you don’t like Komen, Don’t contribute! If you don’t like abortion, Don’t get one!  In the mean time keep your filthy blasphemous hands off others that don’t agree. Now that was simple wasn’t it?

(btw, we bet you wish had a speaker as effective as Nancy P, instead of that blithering drunk)

A rant, an incoherent diatribe, a post with sound and furry – but signifying — not much!

Your first sentence is a mess, and the one in parentheses at the end is just as bad.  There’s not much in between the two within your rant that reveals much depth of thought.  

Yes, ”simple,” because it came from your “simple” mind.
