Indiana lawmaker says Girl Scouts promote Planned Parenthood

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — An Indiana lawmaker has accused the Girl Scouts of being a radical group that promotes abortions and homosexuality.

The Girl Scouts flatly deny Republican Rep. Bob Morris’ charges.

Morris, of Fort Wayne, told The Associated Press that people should not accept the 100-year-old scouting organization as a benevolent group.

Morris wrote a letter to House Republicans Saturday saying he had found evidence on the Internet that the scouts are a “tactical arm” of Planned Parenthood.

Planned Parenthood issued a separate statement calling Morris’ charges “woefully inaccurate.”

Morris’ stance became the butt of jokes inside the Indiana House Tuesday. Speaker Brian Bosma, a fellow Republican, joked that he bought 278 cases of Girl Scout cookies and spent much of the day distributing Thin Mint cookies to lawmakers.

Santorum's misogynistic rhetoric, along with that of his allies, is turning the Republican party into a joke. What will these people dream up next? PUH-LEEZ!

Of course it's true. The girl scouts are Muslim midgets and are part of the conspiracy that started in Kenya fifty years ago with plans to overthrow the United States. Thank God the teabagger/republicans are on the job. They'll save us from the girl scouts.

Yes,
Nancy Pelosi indeed does say that the Girl Scouts have ties to many valuable organizations such as Planned Parenthood:

I would think every parent would want their young daughter to thoroughly explore all means of appropriately expressing their sexuality not only vaginally but through kissing, touching, licking, sucking and, when the time comes, obtaining contraception through PP. You just can't make some of this stuff up.
