So....pro-lifers won the battle in Waco only to realize the scope of the offense was WAAAYY bigger than they imagined.

Time for the nationwide "thin-mint" boycott I guess.

BTW, what exactly is the issue with Campfire girls?

[Lunatic Fringe]

Well, I sure as hell ain't giving up my thin-mints.

GSA wants to be destroyed? Here's a hint... people who have abortions don't have kids to send to GSA... people who have kids in GSA don't want them to be getting abortions... this is real simple, folks, and anyone who needs it explained to them also needs to recuse themselves (due to cluelessness) from making executive decisions on the issue.

[Piquaboy]

Since the liberals have managed to screw up the Boy Scouts the Girl Scouts are next on the list.

[Howie66]

No more Girl Scout Cookies in this house, sorry to say.

[P-Marlowe]

Since the liberals have managed to screw up the Boy Scouts...

Since when did the Boy Scouts get screwed up? I know the Libs are trying. But I didn't know they succeeded.

people who have kids in GSA don't want them to be getting abortions.

What makes you say that? Being in the GSUSA doesn't automatically mean a girl might not end up pregnant at 14 or 15 or 16. And in that case a lot of parents are going to be mighty conflicted.

I just bought four boxes of Thin Mints on Saturday. Three of the boxes are hidden away as my personal stash.

[Piquaboy]

They were saying that discriminating against gay scout leaders was wrong.

[NeoCaveman]

What's next an abortion merit badge?

[lonerepubinma]

I agree. the B.S.A. is the only group in america standing up and fighting for our kids.
Why does the Girl Scouts need to bring this up. These are matters that should be left to the parents.

[George from New England]

"Since the liberals have managed to screw up the Boy Scouts the Girl Scouts are next on the list."

I think it is the other way around. The Girl Scouts caved and are worthless, the Boy Scouts are the ones that are now in the liberal's cross-hairs.

The GSA went to the dark side years ago.

[petitfour]

I had determined not to buy any GS cookies this year, and I was almost successful. Then some neighborhood girls rang our doorbell, and hubby said to buy 10 boxes. He didn't know all the controversy that I had been reading about on the internet. I went ahead and bought the cookies. A few days later I told hubby what was going on with GSA and PP. He said, "Why'd you buy the cookies?" Meanwhile, we had a virus hit our house. We won't be buying GS cookies again. I guess I should have stuck to my guns and not bought any at all. Hubby had to take care of the clean-up of the Thin Mints that 5 year old had eaten. He was so disgusted. There's a list of other stuff we won't eat anymore due to THE VIRUS.

Mmmmm. Thin Mints. (sorry, I'm sure this won't affect the flavor of your stash. :))

The girl scouts ALLOW lesbian leaders and members. They don't "discriminate" between normal girls and bull dykes.

[petitfour]

For folks who don't want to support the GSA, they should also research the National PTA. When you join your local PTA, you also pay $2.00 in dues to the National PTA, which supports a whole lot of liberal causes. Encourage your school to sever ties with the PTA and start up a parent/teacher organization that keeps dues for the service of your school. The National PTA is nothing but a lobbying organization for socialists.

Before all of you stop buying GS cookies, stop by my house and buy some. We have over 100 boxes to get rid of!

My wife is the Troop Leader and is planning on quitting and starting an American Heritage Girls troop in May (she has GS events scheduled until then).

Mmm, thanks. I have food allergies, but I think I could make these edible!
