The cynic in me smells something fishy. The Girl Scouts happen to be under pressure because of their relationship with PLANNED PARENTHOOD.

Google GIRL SCOUTS PLANNED PARENTHOOD if you need more information. And find a different way to show our Troops you care....

MMMMMMMM! Thin Mints! I've got a freezer full of 'em. They are delicious frozen, in case you can't eat them fast enough. But, wait, I'm talking about Army guys and gals who've been eating chow hall food! Never mind!

The "women" in charge of GSA are lesbians. It's as bad as the Canadian Boy Scouts in terms of political correctness.

Trefoils are the only kind you can send. Everything else melts.

I'm an easy mark for the trefoils smeared with creamy peanut butter as a snack, or for munching on with a bowl of french vanilla ice cream.

they forgot to tell you that they held up the white flag long ago.

Lesbians are allowed in as Scout leaders and scouts.

Personally I don't support them. I support the troops DIRECTLY.

Gee, thanks for raining on their parade. As a Girl Scout for over 25 years (starting around 1950) we always knew there were lesbians there, but it didn't matter to us--we had fun and learned all sorts of great skills that still serve me well today. (built a fire just last night)

There are still millions of girls having fun and learning new things that have nothing to do with Planned Parenthood.

Oh, by the way, it was the place where we learned about sex, since it wasn't taught in school, and most of our parents didn't tell us, in those days. And I'm relatively normal today!!! :)

"Why would anyone want to team them up with Planned Parenthood at their age??"

Because pregnant Girl Scouts can bring in a lot more money than cookie sales do for PP. If your disgust is at me, it's misplaced. Do some homework and start to realize the sophististication of the campaign against virginity and for early promiscuity. I'm all for supporting our troops, just not through an organization that permits a stealth assault on innocence and traditional family values. And that's what's going on. Wake up and smell the napalm in the culture war....

It isn't just the association with Planned Parenthood. The "leadership" of the GSA has gone all out to promote political correctness. There are quite a few threads on Free Republic documenting this. The Girl Scouts organization you knew from 1950 to 1975 is just as different from the organization of today as is a college campus from those of the same time periods. I have a friend whose daugther is now in college who took her out of the Girl Scouts when he saw the type of leftist agenda they were aggressively promoting.
