First they came for the thin mints…

Shorter Indiana Bob Morris (R-Dipshit): Girl Scouts Turn Girls into Whores and Lesbians

by ABL 2.0

First they came for the thin mints…

This is preposterous:

INDIANAPOLIS – A Fort Wayne lawmaker’s rant against the Girl Scouts went viral Monday after he called them a “radicalized organization” that supports abortion and promotes “homosexual lifestyles.”

Rep. Bob Morris, R-Fort Wayne, sent a letter to Indiana House Republicans on Saturday explaining why he was the only member in the chamber not to sign onto a resolution last week celebrating the 100th anniversary of the Girl Scouts.

...................................

Morris said he did some Web-based research and found allegations that the Girl Scouts are a tactical arm of Planned Parenthood, that they allow transgender
females to join, “just like any real girl,” and encourage sex.

Morris also said the fact that first lady Michelle Obama is honorary president “should give each of us reason to pause before our individual and collective endorsement of the organization.”

They are researching only the right wing links, which as we know are not exactly accurate

7. That's the equivalent of the Wikipedia game of clicking on links to get to the page on Hitler.

Apparently the religious right's equivalent is Planned Parenthood.
