Who would have guessed?<\/p>\n<p>One can only hope SKDKnickerbocker is as successful now as it was with Komen.<\/p>\n<p>It also occurs to me that were Komen to try to disentangle itself from Planned Parenthood today, it would have no trouble, seeing as <a href=\"http:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/big-government\/2015\/07\/23\/planned-parenthood-yanks-corporate-sponsor-page-after-coca-cola-drops-support\/\">corporations are abandoning Planned Parenthood in droves<\/a>, plus Planned Parenthood is a bit too stretched to muster a fight.<\/p>\n<p>Only two weeks ago\u00a0Komen <a href=\"http:\/\/heritageaction.com\/key-votes\/no-on-4-75-million-earmark-for-susan-g-komen-h-r-2722\/\">lost a $4.75 million earmark<\/a> from the sale of a commemorative coin over its relationship with the United States&#8217; largest abortion provider.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s not too late, Komen.
