Did you know that women that have been involved with the girl scouts as children are more likely to be community leaders, be involved with charitable organizations feeding the poor and helping the sick? Did you know that they have a lower chance of drug use, teen pregnancy, or dropping out of high school? Did you know they are more likely to go to college, and are more likely to achieve high paying jobs when they grow up? In other words, they are more likely to become the kind of citizens that conservatives and liberals alike would want.
My daughter has been involved in scouting for some time. She has learned circuitry, first aid, and yes, responsibility for the poor. She can camp, cook out doors, apply CPR, build a rocket, and do so without damaging the natural environment around her. She cares about those around her, she is an "A" student with colleges already picked out. She sings Christian Christmas carols at old folks homes. And, she is not alone. Millions of young women every year are taught how to work together, how to help those less fortunate, and how to support each other: all without an ipod in their hands. Thats right... the scouts I know can make it through the day without "angry birds!"
We should be making these support groups MORE available for parents but this is the organization that the GOP and now the Catholic Church wishes to destroy...

Now I have no doubts that somehow, in their twisted minds, all of this helping the poor stuff is evil. And the good Lord knows that we just cant have females thinking for themselves, becoming leaders, and shaping the world for the better (even by GOP standards).
So if there was any doubt about "the war on women" you can be assured. It is alive and well. And they are striking at a bunch of kids that sell cookies! A call to arms against this socialist anti-christian mob of middle to high schoolers.
What in the &%$$ are they thinking? Do they even read the Bible? Or do they just use it to throw at kids?
