Good! Non-profits should stay out of politics, unless they are a political one. I saw the whines on FB over the earlier controversy from people that I would not have pegged as followers of the rabid RW. Most of my activities don't tend to draw RW types, but I guess a few of them have some limited brain capacity. Shocked

This resignation is big news. After they dumped PP the board said they stood behind Handel and the decision......and now she's gone. People ran right over the top of Komens and gave $$ to PP, and it may not stop there. Komen's is on the line and a huge restructure could save them.....or not.

Good.
She was a cancer to that organization.

Confirmed, Fox "news" makes you stupid

The ones you are noticing are more terrified than anything else. They are lashing out because they are comfortable; and to acknowledge what is happening is a threat to that comfort. Ignore them, for they are not the voices that will rise in the coming days, months and years. They are not the voices of our collected humanity. They are the old voices of fear and impotence. - Anonymous

Too late, Komen as a brand is ruined, will be forever known as an anti-woman right-wing front.

I give them three years.

Yes, with the usual flurry of blustering "I didn't do anything wrong, you guys just overreacted".

Her attacks on Planned Parent Hood
since her inglorious departure reek of dishonesty and hypocrisy. First she confirms that Kormen lied about the role she played in the shameful decision and second her hypocrisy in her attacks on Planned Parenthood is breath taking

She was a candidate for governor here in GA last election cycle. She made it clear that she was definitely an anti-abortion candidate.
