BOO to Susan G. Komen for pulling funding for... →
Today I heard that the Susan G. Komen foundation (the pink ribbon people) pulled funding for Planned Parenthood because they were complying with their rule of pulling funding from organizations that were under investigation by Congress. Funny, I read that these investigations were instigated by anti-abortion groups. Did you know that Planned Parenthood also provides breast cancer prevention...
