Susan G. Komen – Planned Parenthood

I have known for several years about the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure foundation and its practice of donating to Planned Parenthood. It is the reason I avoid buying anything with a pink ribbon on it, because I think Planned Parenthood is one of the most evil organizations on Earth. Whenever I said anything about it to anyone I would always get this ” don’t you care about breast cancer?” look of astonishment. Duh – No I really enjoy the thought of women dying prematurely due to an insideous disease that has affected almost every family on this Earth. Of course I care, but there are many other good cancer research organizations that are fighting breast cancer as well. It really galls me that arrogant people like Sen. Barbara Boxer  and others like her actually have the nerve to  nerve to complain or try to put pressure on Susan Komen to continue to fund Planned (Baby Muderers) Parenthood. Excuse me but what part of DONATION don’t you understand. They can give their money to whatever organization they want to. It seems that Susan G. Komen Found.’s rule was to not award any funds to any organization that was under investigation, which Planned Murderers were. Boxer and many other liberals said that they had succumbed to pressure from right-to-life groups and pulled their money for that reason. You see Liberals think it is okay to succumb to pressure as long as they are the ones supplying the pressure. Susan G. Komen can give their money to whomever they choose and you people who side with the baby butchers don’t have a darn thing to say about it. To demand that someone  keep giving to your cause is the height of arrogance. It borders on extortion.

Planned Parenthood claims that they only use the donated money to help screen women for breast cancer at Planned Parenthood faclities (like I believe that), try to find a mmamogram at a Planned Parenthood facility. Excuse me but if you can kill a baby you don’t deserve my trust, and Planned Parenthood is responsible for the slaughter of millions of innocents. I for one, feel like when buying a product with a pink ribbon lable on it would be like donating money to Hitler for his lawn care. “Oh Hitler isn’t using this money to kill Jews with it , only to make his gardens beautiful so it is alright”.  Maybe not the best analogy, okay, but Planned Parenthood is an evil monster(like Hitler was) that will not get one dime from me. I hope that whoever takes the time to read this if anyone ever does, that you please pass it on to others and not purchase any product associated with the pink ribbon/Susan G. Komen Foundation. Not until they stick to their guns and break off their association with the group responsible for more murders of innocent children than anyone in history, Planned Parenthood. God Bless

SOMETHING DISTURBING/ SOMETHING WRONG

This morning President Obama called New York Archbishop Timothy Dolan to break the news.

Secretary of Health and Human Services and pro-abortion Catholic Kathleen Sebelius just announced that the proposed mandate requiring all insurance plans to pay for contraception, sterilization and some abortion drugs is official — and Catholics cannot escape.

…and the fig-leaf exemption for religious groups will not be modified, apart from allowing some groups an additional year to comply.

Cardinal-designate Timothy M. Dolan responded minutes ago, saying: “In effect, the president is saying we have a year to figure out how to violate our consciences.”Beginning August 1, 2012 (less than eight months from today), the insurance premiums we pay, including the insurance premiums paid by Catholics for employees of churches and schools — will be used to cover drugs and procedures that are in direct conflict with the teachings of our Church.

That’s right. Our government will now force us to pay for insurance coverage for birth control, sterilization and even some abortion drugs.

President Obama ignored the organized efforts of Catholics across the country, including bold statements from the Bishops, university presidents (including Notre Dame’s Rev. Jenkins), and even his Catholic allies like Sr. Carol Keehan.

Instead, President Obama stood with his real friends — Planned Parenthood.

Make no mistake, this decision is a direct attack on you, our Church, and the religious liberty of all Americans.

Just yesterday, Pope Benedict XVI addressed the bishops from the United States who were completing their “Ad Limina” visit in Rome. The Holy Father specifically cited the “grave threats” to the freedom of the Church in America, and urged the Catholic community to respond, especially with “an engaged, articulate and well-formed Catholic laity.”
He’s talking to you and me. The Holy Father’s brief address is a must read (link below).

Finally, today marks exactly one year from Inauguration Day. In exactly 12 months, America will welcome a new president, or usher in four more years of Barack Obama and his assault on our liberties. This irony is not lost on us.

We built CatholicVote into a movement to advance the cause of life, family, and freedom. Today’s decision is an assault on all three. And it MUST be defeated.

You have our pledge that we will do everything possible to educate and mobilize the Catholic vote in 2012.

For on a day such as this, we realize that elections indeed have consequences.

The Catholic vote must rise up like never before. 

Sincerely,

Brian Burch, President

Not at Red’s on January 28th

For those of you who might have been planning to come to Red’s Wine Bar on the Saturday the 28th, I will not be appearing because of a scheduling conflict with an important church event with our Teen Group. I was very fortunate though to find an incredibly talented guy named Darrell Data who will be filling in for me on that night. I have appeared a few times with Darrell at the Muckleshoot Casino with the Oly and the Hydrants Band. he is a great guy and just an awesome performer. Darrell can usually be found at the 13 Coins (across from Seatac Terminal) on Thursday nights, Friday in Tacoma at Oscars, and on Wednesday nights in Burien (at CC’s Lounge I believe). I know you will like him very much so please try to make it down there and show him some love!!! haha!
