@coldjoint,
That really is some new machine. You must be moving up by going down.

The ongoing right wing attack on the Girl Scout organization has flared up again.
0000000000A few hours after Fox News’ Todd Starnes endorsed a boycott of the Girl Scouts, Fox News’ Bill O’Reilly complained on his show about the “homosexual overtones” surrounding a Girl Scout spokesperson.
"During the controversy over Chick-fil-A’s stance on gay rights issues, Fox News pundit Todd Starnes said that people boycotting the restaurant chain are “un-American” and warned that “the days of persecution are upon us.”
But apparently boycotts aren’t “un-American” as long as Starnes supports them, as today he endorsed the Religious Right boycott of the Girl Scouts over bogus accusations that Girl Scout cookies fund Planned Parenthood."
In 2012, even the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops entered the fray.
00000"At issue are concerns about program materials that some Catholics find offensive, as well as assertions that the Scouts associate with other groups espousing stances that conflict with church teaching. The Scouts, who have numerous parish-sponsored troops, deny many of the claims and defend their alliances.
The inquiry coincides with the Scouts’ 100th anniversary celebrations and follows a chain of other controversies.
Earlier this year, legislators in Indiana and Alaska publicly called the Scouts into question, and the organization was berated in a series aired by a Catholic broadcast network. [In 2011], the Scouts angered some conservatives by accepting into a Colorado troop a 7-year-old transgender child who was born a boy but was being raised as a girl.
Some of the concerns raised by Catholic critics are recycled complaints that have been denied by the Girl Scouts’ head office repeatedly and categorically. It says it has no partnership with Planned Parenthood, and does not take positions on sexuality, birth control and abortion."
Comedy Central quipped:
000000000“Don’t be fooled by those cute little outfits or merit badges. The Girl Scouts aren’t just selling you a pack of cookies – they’re selling you a pack of lies, with a light coating of toasted coconut communism. Why do the Girl Scouts teach survival skills? It’s clearly an attempt to build some kind of liberal tween militia. Volunteering and ‘helping’ others? Just another strategy to mobilize the working poor and other key Democratic voting blocs.”

Anyone who would make a statement like that says a whole lot about being owned.
Indeed! Whether you meant what you wrote or not.
@panzade,
The RC church further warns that, in defence of church teachings, they are willing to forgo having these captive groups of young children close at hand, ummm errrr, on church property.

Again Frank? Do I have to tell you again that what you choose to read into what I say means nothing. Your liberal bullshit thinking and lock step replies satisfy your needs not mine. And have no meaning to me except for the fact that it proves exactly how far gone you really are.
I am not "gone" at all,CJ...I am right here.

I did indeed say a whole lot about being owned.
YOU, CJ, are owned by Barack Obama and Hillery.
They are just lending you to me right now.
