Notice how she declines the severance package at the end. Severance packages always come with a confidentiality provision (that is -shut up and never talk about this again)

I don’t think we have heard the last of her. I hope she exposes the nasty underbelly of this phony organization.

My point is any decision made to defund Planned Parenthood was characterized as bad and brought on by political pressure. Any decision that benefits them, using the same process, brought on by political pressure, is good because they get the money.

It's the height of hipocricy.

Unfortunately, it’s the whole world of ‘non-profits’ and ‘foundations,’ etc. Good intentions converted to comfortable careers for grant-writers and grant-seekers from well heeled and politically powerful organizations. NO ONE has played that game as well as Soros.

Komen was already off our list for donations. Their singular focus on only one type of cancer is not acceptable. As a cancer surivor, I chose to give to the Cancer Society and urge others not to be gender bound in their contributions.
Each year thousands of women walk past our house and next year it will have a banner on it..advertising the Cancer Society.

I went to the SGK web page and contacted them to inform them of their misconduct.

I was considering a donation to that organization until they decided to continue to support rampant infanticide.

After Planned Parenthood, Democratic members of Congress and the media pounced on Komen for its decision...major difference between 'rats and 'pubs - 'rats hang together, 'pubs destroy each other to ratify their moral superiority - the reason why conservatives will lose the struggle in the end......

Pro-lifers, remember to look for the Komen label — and try to AVOID it — on household goods.

Komen had a good, solid chance to get out of subsidizing abortions, but then it decided abortions were more important than its central mission, namely fighting breast cancer.

Perhaps one day Komen will correct its error. Until then, strive to buy non-Komen-labeled products.

This is akin to a lung cancer charity funding a cigar smoking group.

WOW! I smoke an occasional cigar. What charity is that? I could use a little funding...

Nominate her for Republican Congressperson.

Karen Handel ran for Governor of Georgia two years ago and lost to Nathan Deal in a run off. Consensus here was that she ran a dirty campaign.

I would estimate that 30 to 40 million more people are now aware of the connection between Komen and Planned parenthood.

Uh, no. She was a failed "moderate," homo-loving RINO candidate for GA governor.

She should take some time to reflect on just how far accomodating evil got her.

Here’s the Forbes article about this:

http://www.forbes.com/sites/meghancasserly/2012/02/07/karen-handel-exits-susan-g-komen-the-resignation-letter/

Karen Handel is the victim of a horrendous stream of character-assassination Tweets on Twitter. “They” have been doing the same thing to Newt for weeks now, but not with the shrill banshee intensity that is so characteristic of the feminazis.

The leftist-feminazi scum keeps pinning the Nazi label on pro-life conservatives. They don’t seem to realize that Planned Parenthood has a REAL Nazi past, which especially includes the feminazi “hero” Margaret Sanger.

Now obama has wrapped up all the demographic-engineering dreams of the feminazis, muslims, utilitarians, and La Raza partisans into one law known as obamacare. The Orthodox and Roman Catholic bishops are standing against this outrage—many others should join them!!!!

There appear to be factions in Komen. Interesting.

“I have no sympathy. All these “cure” groups reek of “scam”.”

Of course people would love to witness the day when there are even more treatments and cures of breast cancer, but seeing that pink ribbon logo affixed to commercial products like 2012 appointment calendars at Staples is over the limit of infiltration. I’ll be Komen’s donation drop now that everyone’s aware they’re a funder of an abortion promoting organization.
