What did you think they were doing at Komen, cancer research? Nope. They lobby and support abortion. oh brother.

Washington, DC (LifeNews.com) -- Kentucky Fried Chicken has started a new fundraising campaign to bring in money from the sales of pink buckets of chicken to benefit the Komen for the Cure breast cancer foundation. But pro-life groups are up in arms because Komen denies the abortion-breast cancer link and donates to Planned Parenthood.

Angela Martin, the executive director of Maryland Right to Life, told LifeNews.com that the Komen partnership with the KFC is raising eyebrows, with consumer groups complaining that the fat and calorie-laden chicken doesn't contribute to good health.

"The jury is still out on whether eating Kentucky-fried chicken increases breast cancer risk, but that hasn't stopped the pundits from registering their disapproval," she said.

But what is more clear, Martin explained, is that Komen has close ties with Planned Parenthood and ignores the abortion-breast cancer link.

Komen affiliates have given Planned Parenthood $3 million between 2003 and 2008 and $805,000 in the 2008 fiscal year, according to STOPP International.
