Ex-Planned Parenthood Clinic Director: PP Doesn’t Need the Komen Money, Anyway

By |

Now that Dallas-based Komen for The Cure’s been beaten down by everyone, left and right, for its clumsy decision-making, a former Employee of the Year at a Texas Planned Parenthood clinic is out with a different view. Abby Johnson, who was the clinic’s director before quitting and becoming a pro-life activist, says Planned Parenthood will use Mafia-style, shakedown tactics against any charity that decides not to fund the group. She also says the Komen dough isn’t really needed for Planned Parenthood’s free breast-cancer screenings, anyway.
