Joe Lieberman's wife gets your breast cancer donations
Calling on the Susan G. Komen Foundation to stop using research donations to pay spokesperson Hadassah Lieberman, pharmaceutical lobbyist and wife of Joe Lieberman.
"According to Breast Cancer Action, the rate of breast cancer incidence among women was 1 in 22 in the 1940s. In 2007, it was 1 in 8. Despite the obvious questions this raises about the impact of environmental factors on breast cancer occurrence, the Komen Foundation focuses its resources on developing treatments that increase the profitability of pharmaceutical companies like the ones that employ Mrs. Lieberman rather than prevention. Unlike other breast cancer organizations, they refused to sign on to the 2006 Consensus Statement on Breast Cancer and the Environment."
Thanks, meowse.
