Nancy Brinker posted this youtube video today in an attempt to defend her position:

Look at the youtube cover page she set up to launch the video in the lower right hand corner there is a notation "As Seen On: The Corner" When I clicked on The Corner. It took me to the National Review's youtube page. IMO Komen is is flaunting her relationship with the Republican Party. I have provided a link to a clipped image of Komen's youtube page for the video she published today. I have highlighed in purple the link she provides to the National Review.
