The latest nail in the shiny pink coffin containing Komen's credibility came yesterday, when the Huffington Post's Laura Bassett revealed that sources within Komen showed her emails proving that Handel was behind Planned Parenthood's defunding... Apparently Handel was positive that if Komen simply framed the defunding as a rule change, everyone would just accept whatever she said and just go blithely on their merry way. For being a "pro woman" organization, Susan G. Komen for the Cure's leadership sure seems to think women are stupid. And before Komen gets back to curing breast cancer, they better cure their own case of bullshit. This is no longer an issue of funding or not funding Planned Parenthood-- this is an issue of an institutional dishonesty and ham-fisted attempts to obscure an obvious political agenda.
