This comment from BenignMoose on my previous post deserves to be a post of its own:
Readers, I direct your attention to the letter itself. Not to disprove, but to reinforce the point made above. Also, and perhaps more important, the letter is HILARIOUS. Money quote in the first paragraph regarding the partnership between girl scouts and PP
“You will not find evidence of this on the GSA/WAGGGS (world association of of girl guides and girl scouts) – in fact, the websites of these two organizations explicitly deny funding planned parenthood.”
You would think that this would be followed by “but, I have found the following evidence to the contrary.” Leave it to Rep. Bob Morris to take the less predictable, don’t-present-evidence-but-instead-make-even-more-outrageous-claims route which prove effective amongst the crowd of people whose sexism, homophobia, and general fear of everything that doesn’t reek of WASP has reached the level of the demented.
Just for kicks, I’ll throw another quote in there:
“Many parents are abandoning the Girl Scouts because they promote homosexual lifestyles. In fact, the Girl Scouts education seminar girls are directed to study the example of role models. Of the fifty role models listed, only three have briefly-mentioned religious background – all the rest are feminists, lesbians, or communists.”
We thought the red devil was dead, but no apparently he is alive and kicking in Indiana!
