Loading ...What the hell in in the water in Waco, texas? I’ve always felt that 
forcing girl scouts to meet a cookie quota was a sort of sick kind of prostitution. But now some families are boycotting Thin Mints and Do-Si-Dos and other Girl Scout cookies. Troop 7527 is down to just two members after the other girls were withdrawn by their parents. And Brownie Troop 7087 is no more.
The furor was started a few weeks ago by the leader of the anti-abortion group Pro-Life Waco, who sent out e-mails and ran ads on a Christian radio station urging people to boycott Girl Scout cookies because of the “cozy relationship” between the Girl Scouts and Planned Parenthood.
Parents were upset to learn that the local Girl Scout organization had given a “woman of distinction award” last year to a Planned Parenthood executive. And they were disturbed to find out that the Girl Scout organization has been giving its endorsement for years [little slow on the uptake] to a Planned Parenthood sex-ed program.
Here’s my favorite quote: “You’re telling these girls to raise their fingers up to pledge to honor God and country, and yet you’re handing out materials saying homosexuality is OK,” said Brownie leader Donna Coody, who disbanded her five-member troop.
The Waco-area Girl Scout organization has been putting its name and logo on brochures for the Planned Parenthood sex-education programs but said it does not contribute any money and does not send girls to attend. Some 400 to 700 fifth- through ninth-graders attend the half-day Nobody’s Fool conference in Waco each July. The program never mentions abortion, according to Planned Parenthood. The youngsters receive a book with chapters on homosexuality and masturbation, as well as illustrations of couples having sex, people examining their naked bodies and a boy putting on a condom.
Since the Mormons have taken over Boy Scouts I don’t think we’ll be seeing the same uproar from recycle can collections. But Christ - those boy scout / girl scout summer camp get togethers must be a blast to watch!
Can anyone explain to me how the Boy Scouts can fund itself without having to meet a “cookie quota” yet the Girl Scouts act like the entire organization will crumble tomorrow (sorry) if YOU PERSONALLY don’t buy 4 boxes crappy cookies? Funny enough, I just happen to have a box of Caramel DeLites here. Let’s see . . . Serving size, 2 cookies. 140 Calories, 6g Saturated Fat. Lets see, multiplied by 7 servings per box = hmmm, that’s odd, it equals “I’m a fat-ass.” Check out the nutritional information for all Girl Scout Cookies.
Do you want a real treat? Wanna get back to the spirit of what Girl Scout Cookies were originally all about? Try The Original Home-Baked Girl Scout Cookie. This is the original Girl Scout Cookie from back in 1922. They are a sugar cookie cut into trefoil shapes (like the Girl Scout emblem), and sprinkled with sugar crystals. Try this - bake-em with your daughter. If you really want to have a heart-to-heart and piss off the folks of Waco - make ‘em penis shaped.[What Do YOU Think? Comment on this Post!] [Testify!]
