...and don't forget the millions spent of suing other cancer orgs for using "For the cure"...

Komen backs down on Planned Parenthood Sam do you understand what women's health is? Or what the mission of the Koman foundation is? Its not just funding for cancer research. All in all about 17% of the money raised by the Komen foundation goes to cancer research, while another 13% goes for preventative services which includes breast exams as a part of women's health. BTW the rest of the money (70%) taken in by the fundraising foundation goes to administration and expenses. That includes half million dollar salaries for Founder Nancy Brinker, and almost that much for Senior Vice President Karen Handel, a failed Georgia Republican gubernatorial candidate who called for de-funding Planned Parenthood before being hired by Komen. Former Bush spokesman Ari Fleisher is on the board and also on retainer for communications and PR. So it seems to be a nice sinecure for a bunch of failed republicans.
