re: #349 Killgore Trout

Yeah, After reading up a bit on the situation I can see what’s going on. A lot of organizations, including the federal government, have rules against doing business with people under investigation. It just makes good sense. I think the Dems should focus on wrapping up the PP investigation. The reason I suspect this is an outrageous outrage Komen has some conservative ties, including the notorious Koch Bros, some Republicans and conservatives. I don’t think the rule is some sort of secret conspiracy to defund PP. Maybe they’re just trying to make the best use of their money and be responsible with it. I kind of doubt this cancer charity has secretly become an evil wingnut conspiracy.

You know, you could have read the OP for starters.

But three sources with direct knowledge of the Komen decision-making process told me that the rule was adopted in order to create an excuse to cut-off Planned Parenthood. (Komen gives out grants to roughly 2,000 organizations, and the new “no-investigations” rule applies to only one so far.) The decision to create a rule that would cut funding to Planned Parenthood, according to these sources, was driven by the organization’s new senior vice-president for public policy, Karen Handel

You really should start researching things before writing analyses of them.
