Why should SG Koman support an outfit that promotes abortion when medical studies have shown a link between abortion and breast cancer? Would the Cancer Society be expected to give money to the Tobbaco industry?

Besides, Planned Parenthood seems to have collected more money from other sources than the $600K that SG Komen had given them.
From the American Cancer Society:
"Abortion and breast cancer are both topics that can bring out strong feelings in people. The issue of abortion is often linked to personal and political viewpoints – even without a possible disease connection. Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women. It can be a deadly disease, and one that many women fear.
Linking these 2 topics creates a great deal of emotion and debate. But scientific research studies have not found a cause-and-effect relationship between abortion and breast cancer. "
