I guess it's the GIRL in "Girl Scouts" that is behind this new GOP attack! thinkingblue

FB member, posts article below and writes on facebook: Just when you thought that Indiana Republicans could not move further to the right, they out did themselves. Apparently the Girl Scouts are now a "radicalized" organization.

Republican calls Girl Scouts 'radicalized'
A lawmaker has sent a letter to fellow Republican members of the Indiana House saying he would not support a resolution celebrating the 100th anniversary of the Girl Scouts because he believes it is a "radicalized organization" that supports abortion and promotes homosexuality.

In a letter obtained by The Journal-Gazette of Fort Wayne on Monday, Rep. Bob Morris of Fort Wayne said he did some research on the Internet and found allegations that the Girl Scouts are a tactical arm of Planned Parenthood, allow transgender females to join and encourage sex.

"After talking to some well-informed constituents, I did a small amount of web-based research, and what I found is disturbing," Morris wrote in his letter, which also accused the group of promoting "homosexual lifestyles."

Morris sent the letter to House Republicans on Saturday. MORE HERE

Tea Party supporter's will agree with any right-wing nut ... case in point:

A GOP/TP member writes on Facebook:

If one Republican means that the whole state party is farther to the right, than the Democrats must be Genghis Khan and the Thundering Hordes after what was done at the 'Democrat' (GOP code word) National Convention. When the Boy Scouts took the stage they were roundly booed by many delegates.

Typical Right-winger's retort of no explanation just "YA MOMMA WEARS COMBAT BOOTS" rhetoric.

I don’t approve of derision no matter which side it’s coming from…

BUT FACT NUMBER ONE: the Dems booed boy scouts because of the decision by the right-wing majority Supreme Court that ruled the Boy Scouts can ban homosexual leaders… It’s all about tolerance and the GOP/TP does not know the meaning of that word! To hateful bigots like Morris, et al, anyone who doesn’t agree with your ONE-SIDED, DISTORTED BIGOTRY is  radical. thinkingblue

REASON FOR BOOOOOO...

The Supreme Court ruled Wednesday that the Boy Scouts of America can bar homosexuals from being troop leaders. The justices by a 5-4 vote overturned a New Jersey Supreme Court ruling that the dismissal of a gay Scout leader had been illegal under the state's anti-discrimination law. The Boy Scouts, which also exclude atheists and agnostics as leaders, said it has the right to decide who can join its ranks.

This type of BIGOTRY is so nauseating, no fair-minded human being would ever condone it.

AND:

A lawmaker has sent a letter to fellow Republican members of the Indiana House saying he would not support a resolution celebrating the 100th ANNIVERSARY of the Girl Scouts because he believes it is a "radicalized organization" that supports abortion and promotes homosexuality.

Agreeing with Rep. Bob Morris “R” is agreeing that injustice should thrive.

DEFINITION: Genghis Khan – Thesaurus entry:   someone who has very right-wing political opinions or forces other people to do what they want.

One only has to look at the

One only has to look at the Catholic Church to see the devastation of allowing gay men into positions of authority.

You can hardly blame Scouts groups and Football teams, (where homosexual abuse is now occurring) from wanting to protect their children.

What bugs me abou the

What bugs me abou the girlscouts is their damn cookies are causing tremendous deforestation of the rainforest!  But, even then, some girl scounts have started a petition to change that, so....meh,...whatever, so long as they aren't in reality a sales force made up of underpaid children to sell cookies for some Oligarchs, we'll have to see where they are  about accepting lesbians.
