What do you expect from an organization that sucks babies out of the womb and throws them in the trash?
Via Politico:
Karen Handel, the Susan G. Komen for the Cure official who resigned Tuesday, accused Planned Parenthood of “vicious attacks and coercion” against her.
“Last time I checked, private nonprofit organizations have a right and a responsibility to be able to set the highest standards and criteria on their own without interference, let alone the level of vicious attacks and coercion that has occurred by Planned Parenthood. It’s simply outrageous,” Handel a former Georgia Republican governor candidate who joined the breast cancer organization in 2011 as a vice president of public policy, told Fox News’ Megyn Kelly.
Handel also addressed her role in the controversial and since-rescinded decision by Komen to yank funding from Planned Parenthood, saying that “I clearly acknowledge that I was involved in the process, but to suggest that I had the sole authority is just absurd.”
She said Komen’s questioning of funding Planned Parenthood had existed long before she came to the breast cancer organization.
“I think everyone can agree if you have a grantee where there is this type of controversy surrounding it, Komen was doing its level best to move to neutral ground. And I will say, I was asked to look at options for doing that, some alternatives for doing that. I was asked to do it, I looked at it and I did,” she added.
