"Nancy, do you really expect those who support your organization to believe that this sudden change in policies is not politically motivated? What else could have so quickly caused your organization to turn your back on a Planned Parenthood. According to a recent statement from your own organization "In some areas of the U.S., our affiliates have determined a Planned Parenthood clinic to be the best or only local place where women can receive breast health care." How did that suddenly change?"
So, Komen previously stated the truth that Planned Parenthood was the "best or ONLY local place where women can receive breast health care". And now, Komen has pulled their funding for Planned Parenthood. Gee, they really do CARE about women's health issues, don't they?!?!
Another comment within the ridiculous video Nancy posted to Youtube stated that Komen only donated about $700,000 per year to PP, while Nancy's salary was $500,000 per year. I think that this PR catastrophe for Komen just might end up being financially advantageous for PP. I certainly hope it will be. Sending donations to PP instead of to Komen by so many caring, informed people should result in much more than an extra $700,000 being sent to PP.
At least I strongly hope that's the case!
