Everybody's now on notice that Planned Parenthood provides these services and that you can give directly to Planned Parenthood and avoid paying the Komen overhead. That bed will not be unshat.<br /><br />Regarding local affiliates, the local affiliates were the bodies responsible for approving the Planned Parenthood in the first place. These people have been on the front line fighting the battles for years, and in my humble opinion, it was the stink that the local affiliates raised that was primarily responsible for national Komen beating a hasty retreat. If right-wingers make any moves to turn the local affiliates into something other than what they already are, these people will raise the alarm again, and that should serve to pull the plug on Komen. Komen isn't like a school board at all. If you want a school, you have to have a school board. To fight breast cancer, you don't have to have Komen.ploeghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10248826561069733693noreply@blogger.com
