• GSK Straight Talk Flip Flop or GSK Decision Tweaking Time?
  
  
  This is NOT the same video they had up yesterday. They made it private/hid it today and then came up with the new-and-improved version of GSK Straight Talk.
  
  See what happens when you don’t pay attention?
  
  I wonder if Huffington Post is paying attention.
  
  I'm beginning to believe that Satan lives at Planned Parenthood.
  

  
  

  
  
  
• SGK Straight Talk Flip Flop
  Remember that video made by SGK titled:
  
  Straight Talk from Ambassador Nancy G. Brinker, Founder and CEO of Susan G. Komen ???
  
  
  
  
  SGK took it down.
  
  They went back on their word.
  
  Did you read the Huffington Post article all the way?
  
  "To be clear, Komen's apology is not a promise to renew Planned Parenthood grants. It's a promise to "continue to fund existing grants" to the organization -- which it was already planning on doing -- and to make it eligible for future grants. At no point in the press release does Brinker promise that Komen will renew grants to Planned Parenthood."
  
  Lots of Flip Flopping for sure!
  
  
  
  

  
  

  
  
  
• Susan G Komen Changed Their Minds
  Susan G. Komen Reverses Planned Parenthood Decision, Pledges To Continue Funding
  
  QUOTE
  
  "We want to apologize to the American public for recent decisions that cast doubt upon our commitment to our mission of saving women's lives.
  
  The events of this week have been deeply unsettling for our supporters, partners and friends and all of us at Susan G. Komen. We have been distressed at the presumption that the changes made to our funding criteria were done for political reasons or to specifically penalize Planned Parenthood. They were not.
  
  Our original desire was to fulfill our fiduciary duty to our donors by not funding grant applications made by organizations under investigation. We will amend the criteria to make clear that disqualifying investigations must be criminal and conclusive in nature and not political. That is what is right and fair.
  
  Our only goal for our granting process is to support women and families in the fight against breast cancer. Amending our criteria will ensure that politics has no place in our grant process. We will continue to fund existing grants, including those of Planned Parenthood, and preserve their eligibility to apply for future grants, while maintaining the ability of our affiliates to make funding decisions that meet the needs of their communities.
  
  It is our hope and we believe it is time for everyone involved to pause, slow down and reflect on how grants can most effectively and directly be administered without controversies that hurt the cause of women. We urge everyone who has participated in this conversation across the country over the last few days to help us move past this issue. We do not want our mission marred or affected by politics - anyone's politics.
  
  Starting this afternoon, we will have calls with our network and key supporters to refocus our attention on our mission and get back to doing our work. We ask for the public's understanding and patience as we gather our Komen affiliates from around the country to determine how to move forward in the best interests of the women and people we serve.
  
  We extend our deepest thanks for the outpouring of support we have received from so many in the past few days and we sincerely hope that these changes will be welcomed by those who have expressed their concern."

• Abortion Is Not Health Care
  
  
  
  SGK has the right to look at their funding criteria and make a determination. Instead of demonizing SGK, PP could take the time to find out how to correct those deficiencies and do something to improve their relationship with their donors. If PP does not have enough money to continue providing cancer screenings or to improve on their testing standards then maybe PP could take a look at what they do in the name of “health care” and make the tough decisions necessary in order to be there for the people they claim to care so much for.

  PP has made SGK’s decision political. Now they are pretending they are incapable of providing cancer screening because of SGK’s decision. Hogwash!

• Nebraska Civil Liberties are Crumbling
  
  
  
  Nebraska Families need to get their heads out of the sand and start paying attention. I for one can attest to the new truancy law. A doctor visit AND a doctor’s note does NOT excuse your family. Your child’s special needs – you can forget about it. You think you are a good parent and can take your child out of school – THINK again! Wake up Nebraska! Pay Attention! Dare to walk a mile in someone else’s shoes. You think you know – you have NO clue!

• Did you watch the CNN Debate?
  I thought Santorum did well. Ron Paul was good. He made me laugh a few times. I really like what Mitt said about the Declaration of Independence. I loved it when Santorum talked about God-given rights versus Govt-given rights. Newt did not do so well last night. For me, Santorum and Paul killed it. This will not end in Florida. No matter how it turns out Obama will NEVER get my vote. There is NO way he deserves to have 4 more years. Obama is the walking talking definition of insanity.

  I was listening to the news while dyeing my hair. The more Newt opens his mouth to let all that hot air out the more I know I am NOT going to vote for him. I do NOT appreciate his attitude. Ron Paul might be weak on foreign policy but at least he understands what is going on in the United States of America. I am also looking at Mitt Romney. So what if he is a Mormon Millionaire. I do NOT believe Santorum will last long. EnJOYing a nice piping hot cup of tea now hoping I can kick this nasty cold once and for all.

  Today marks the 1,000th day since the United States Senate has passed a budget. While the House has put forth (and passed) its own budget, the Senate has failed to do the same. To help illustrate how extraordinary this failure has been, our new video highlights a few of impressive feats in history that have been accomplished in less time.
