Komen Collapses, Reverses Course

They broke. 

Can’t say I’m surprised. I’m calling my credit card company and rescinding my donation. Let Komen do what it wants to do, but if they think they’re going to get any respect from the pro-choice mob now, they’re deluding themselves.

To me, the most important fact in all this controversy is how utterly unrestrained many in the media have been in its biased reporting. It has been disgusting. All the things liberals routinely blast Fox News for have been on flagrant display in coverage of this issue. This, not Komen’s moral collapse, is the thing to note, and to remember, about this debacle. There are two issues the mainstream media sees absolutely no reason to be fair and balanced in covering: gay rights and abortion rights. Sexual autonomy is the one great sacrament of the Left, which is to say, our mainstream US media. See Mollie Hemingway’s latest for more.

UPDATE: The bank says I have to ask Susan G. Komen to cancel or return the donation. So I’ve just done that.

UPDATE.2: A wise friend observes that Nancy Brinker, the Dallas socialite who founded and runs Komen, could have withstood the pressure from the media, but she folded under pressure from her social class.
