● January 2011 - After an unsuccessful run (click title to entry - thank you) for Georgia governor, Karen Handel joins the Susan G. Komen Foundation as a consultant. She was then hired as a senior vice president for public policy. During the Georgia primary, Handel’s platform included advocating for Planned Parenthood’s defunding.
● Spring 2011 - The Komen board forms a three-member subcommittee to look into Planned Parenthood funding. Komen staff also begin meeting on the issue. Both the staff review and board subcommittee conclude that funding for Planned Parenthood should continue....
With the Queen of Swing for the Anti-Abortionists gone, Komen may have solved their CREDIBILITY problem. Planned Parenthood needs to move toward autonomy. The Women's Care Movement has made a mistake in believing we didn't need more than one camp in conquering breast cancer. It is still surreal to find there is an agenda put ahead of care and decency. Buoy. Some really do believe they are god.
