Around the Blogroll and Elsewhere: Special Susan Komen Foundation War on Women's Health edition
Posted by Jill | 10:06 AM
If SGK thinks we're all one happy family again because they parsed some words that at first sound conciliatory, they'd better guess again.

Blue Girl: "I'm not the sort of woman to take back an abuser who promises 'never again, oh baby, I promise'....Especially when his bitch sister is still in your house."

David Atkins: "no one should consider giving Komen a single dime until Karen Handel is fired or resigns in disgrace. And even then, the organization needs to answer some very serious questions about why she was hired in the first place, and what their real mission is."

Amanda: This was about values, not money.

Michael Hayne: The media got it wrong.

Violet Socks: "This is about Yoplait and Energizer and all the other pink “Partners for the Cure” raining crap down Nancy Brinker’s phone line."

Charlie Pierce: "...it was really sort of wonderful to watch the women of The Village have to confront the fact that one of their favorite charities had been caught playing footsie with the monied portion of the anti-choice movement in order to defund one of the organizations that those Village women see has vitally important to their own lives, and the lives of their daughters and granddaughters.
