Re: Have we discussed this?
I read this yesterday. I hurt my eyes, they rolled so hard (hey, maybe that is what is wrong with my eye).
I keep trying to decide what I find most offensive, but I just can't single one thing out.
i don't even know what to say about that article. Now the one thing I know about Bob Morris is that he is an insufferably misogynistic prick. i'd go through and highlight some of the more offensive quotes from the article, but there are just so many.
i definitely want alison in the girl scouts.

I did a small amount of Web-based research
I find this hilarious. I googled it! It may not be good enough for teachers all around the country, but it's good enough for our legislature!

The Girl Scouts totally taught me how to give BJs. Now I'm always prepared!
You're right Cali. How dare we show our daughters female role models of all types!
Girl Scouts played a huge role in my youth, so if I ever have a daughter I would encourage her to join.

Lordy. Grow some balls and stop lurking. It's like stealing from the internet. Jesuschrist. -- AudreyHorne
I hate love and marriage. I got married so I could destroy these things from the inside. - NoisyPenguin
It's a good thing my circle of trust is as giant as my vagina. That only leaves a couple people out. - Cali
You know what the Girl Scouts taught me? To take an empty plastic milk carton, fill it up with water, take an old pair of nylons, put a bar of soap in the nylons, tie the nylons to the milk carton, set it out in the sun, and voila, you can wash your hands with warm water while camping.
Those damn, dirty feminists taught me how to be clean.
I make jokes because it really, really scares me.
I said on Twitter the other day that it all reads like the prologue to a dystopian YA novel.
no, i agree here. especially when you see the panel testifying to congress about BCP is all men.
They took out the hydrogenated fats and replaced them with aborted fetuses. That's why they're more delicious this year.

Campfire singalong w/Nov, okla and winged.
I saw this the other day and intended to bring it here and forgot. There are so many things here, I don't know where to start.
I chuckled at this in the Chicago Tribune article...
Morris' comments were the butt of jokes inside the House on Tuesday, with Bosma spending much of the day handing out Thin Mints to lawmakers.
I'm concerned enough to take off work to go protesting next week.
GS taught me to use a tampon for timber/kindle when you need to start a fire (no lighter fluid allowed!)
I agree with Nov. It also pisses me off that with all the issues in this country that THIS is what politians are wasting their time on.
Also, I had a thin mint frappe the other day and it was amazing so I love the Girl Scouts and all their crazy feminist agenda pushing.
Whenever I see a young guy saying sh!t like this, I want to go to the National Ladies Convention (every woman alive is in attendance, in theory), and stand up in front of everyone and shout:
"Which one of you is fukcing him??? Who is it? Show yourself.
Oh, you, there. You sleep with this prick?
STOP IT. Just stop it now. What were you thinking??"
"As of page 2 this might be the most boring argument ever. It's making me long for Rape Day." - Mouse
I was a Girl Scout. I was even one in high school. Evie would be allowed to join baby Girl Scouts if that was a thing. Will isn't allowed within 100 feet of the Boy Scouts.
And yeah. I'm with you Nov. It scares the shiit out of me.
I bet her FUPA's name is Shane, like the gunslinger/drifter of literature.--HappyTummy
They have to be ashamed of themselves. You can't take a man honestly who comes home from announcing nonsense like this. I mean really.
Look keep your crazy down there please. The other day some nutcase in parliament started to bring up giving fetuses rights. Scared me.

I'm on your couch...curled up into a ball and rocking back and forth.
I saw this headline on Facebook and didn't read the article because of the inflammatory headline. Now I'm glad I did.
I'm balled up with you both, in a snuggie, on my laptop of course, fighting with high school people on FB who think Santorum is a fine candidate to lead our country.
That article is certainly sobering.
And enraging.
