In reply to the discussion: Ari Fleischer Secretly Helped Guide Komen Strategy On Planned Parenthood [View all]eyewall
(674 posts)33. There definitely needs to be an investigation now.
Non-profits have to follow some very strict rules. How much of the money SGKF received from donors was spent plotting this political maneuver, and what is in it for them? Cabinet posts under the next republican administration? Was any of the money funneled to the RNC or any campaigns?
I don't think Planned Parenthood is a target of the republicans for any kind of religious beliefs, I think it's because they help the poor. Plus, birth control enables a pleasurable experience for those who should be suffering in the world the repubs are creating. There's a strong sadistic streak in the republican platform.

Notice how 'charitable' Ari is. He didn't charge them full price. How generous of him.

I heard only TWENTY FOUR CENTS of every "Komen dollar" actually goes to "services" for women.
