Don C. Reed: Undo Damage to the Komen Reputation: Support Stem Cell Research

Even organizations who are not making such a decision based on the PP fiasco should take a long, hard look at what Komen actually uses its money to do. There are charities out there that use just a bit more than a fifth (or not much more) of the funds they're given to actually fight breast cancer.

Looks like the vast Right Wing Conspiracy cant wipe its filthy fingerprints from this one - they get away with daily lies and deceit - but got caught on this one

I almost feel bad for Komen - but why on earth would they put a political partisan hack in charge and let her carry out her petty little agenda to destroy planned parenthood
