Nancy Brinker and Elizabeth Thompson now have a new story: It's no longer about a federal investigation. Their new story is that they only want to fund clinics that are doing mammograms themselves, rather than clinics that do mammogram referrals

quote from Thompson: "We’re all a little distracted right now and would like that distraction to go away.”

They've decided to start giving to PP again. (which is funny, because I thought they didn't give into political pressure) Link

This whole thing kind of stumps me for an oddly ironic reason. Women's health has always been a predominantly left/democrat leaning issue. So you finally have an organization with a big enough BANK ACCOUNT to attract right/republican style managers.... but they don't see where their bread gets buttered?

I think we should be watching for much bigger monetary indiscretions in the very near future. That's an iceberg with a very dubious tip.
