Gripe #4 from the Saturday 02/04/2012 Wisconsin State Journal:
Komen Debacle
The
whole Komen debacle. What can I say about this? Well. It always seemed
to me that they were doing a good thing and it appears that after a lot
of flip flopping they are going to continue to do a good thing. What do
I really take away from it. Two things mostly. First: If you're in the
"business" of helping people in any way medically it would be a good
idea to not bring politics into it....
Second: It, in my mind, tarnishes the Komen name and I can only imagine
that in the long run it will probably hurt their fund-raising abilities
from possibly both sides of the issues(and yes, I said in the long run.
I'm quite aware that there was an approximate one million dallar spike
in donations after this weeks announcement).
