Editorial: No Reason To Flee Girl Scouts.

This is priceless. From NOLA(dot)com:
Alone in the entire country, Covington (Louisiana) moms closed down their troop after Colorado Girl Scouts admitted a transgendered 7-year-old. The withdrawal is purportedly a manifestation of Christian faith, but these sure are some uptight moms. They have nothing to fear in Louisiana, where the Girl Scout council declared in November that no gender ambiguities would be tolerated. That policy was promulgated only after the Colorado Girl Scouts accepted Bobby Montoya, and the matrons of St. Tammany asked whether a similar abomination would be permitted here.
The policy was not promulgated quickly enough for their tastes. Louisiana Girl Scout leaders felt it necessary to discuss the matter before reaching a decision, the issue never having arisen here before.
The slight delay was viewed as a sure sign of moral decay. So the troop that met at Northlake Christian School was disbanded and everyone is joining American Heritage Girls, where the word of God is paramount. And moms familiar with God's views know that he takes a dim view of the transgendered. It is not for us to question why he put them on earth in the first place.
Maybe it wasn't to join the Girl Scouts at that, and anxious Covington moms would not be alone in a preference for anatomical uniformity on, say, camping trips. But it should not be too hard for leaders to avoid embarrassing scenes. Since there is no danger whatsoever of transgendered infiltration in Louisiana anyway, for the moms to pick up their skirts and flee does look like overreaction.
The Colorado decision may just have been the last straw, however, given that Girl Scouts of America is famously subversive and left-wing. No, I didn't know that either, but American Heritage Girls would not exist if lots of moms had not decided that the Scouts had strayed from the path of righteousness. When reciting the Girl Scout promise, for instance, it is nowadays permitted to substitute another deity or concept for "God." In the depths of their depravity, the Scouts are even said to be sympathetic to Planned Parenthood.
 The stoopid, it burns, precious, yes it does.

It just gets funnier, and more bizarre from here.  Read it.

And so it goes.

  2. Thanks for the heads-up on the shirt. I can't wait.

    And you're right about the cookies. I will probably buy some anyway, to support the cause. The girls do more than the boys, at least to my mind.
