Thanks Mark and also Metmom. I did not know there was such a close relationship b/t Komen and Planned Parenthood. I am saddened to hear about this.
I was shocked, too, when I first found out.
The thing that’s frustrating is that the Komen Foundation portrays itself like it’s doing something about breast cancer with this funding, and the funding is not even helping the demographic most at risk.
Even if the PP connection weren’t such an issue, it’s just such a waste of all that money that people have given in good faith.
