Handel told fox news that she blamed the public backlash against Komen on "vicious attacks" from PP.

15. You know, her yapping away on Fox is helping...

...helping, that is, to shine a gulag-sized spotlight on the RW front group that had generally been understood to be a high-profile and respectable research-focused charity.

I haven't trusted SGK since I learned that Nancy Brinker was a Bush Pioneer. Something about that worried me, but I hoped in earnest that the organization was large enough to maintain their focus despite one key person's politics.

But no, their top players were apparently all of the same stripe. That's what Brinker is foolishly confirming in trying to cover for Handel.

I saw additional details in today's Boston Globe where Handel sprayed her vicious funk on just about everyone high up in SGK. So it really matters no more if Handel was solely at fault or not. Handel takes the fall, and is now barking away on Fox keeping the issue front and center. If SGK were smart, they'd tell her to shut up. But like any self-righteous RW'er, she's been exposed and cornered, and doesn't care who she takes down with her. Nice. And here I was all these years thinking they cared about women with breast cancer...
