I always take these opportunities to remind people that Susan G. Komen for the Cure donates to Planned Parenthood. If you buy anything with their logo, you are contributing to PP. Also, the Catholic Church still endorses Komen because they claim that they make sure the money goes just to breast cancer issues, not abortions. I don’t believe the rationalization, but to each his own.
Thanks for the heads-up. I didn't know this -- although I'm not in the least surprised.
I do too!
The reason I don’t believe the rationalization is that Susan G. Komen’s sister (Nancy Brinker) who started the foundation was a Planned Parenthood board member in Dallas. While I don’t remember where I read it, it was reported that the Komen foundation gave money to Planned Parenthood, they had a new $5 million mill in Dallas.
