Now it's Catholic Bishops going after Girl Scouts

I hope you bought a s***load of cookies from them in their 100th year,
because now it's Catholic Bishops who don't like some things the Girl
Scouts do:
The Girl Scouts of the USA are now facing their highest-level
challenge yet: An official inquiry by the U.S. Conference of Catholic
Bishops.
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.
Is it possible Bishops are trying to gin up the conservative vote over
this? They've shown little hesitation to act in an overtly political
manner, and even though they still manage to get some things right,
their overall record leaves something to be desired, especially for
those who profess a love of God and a profound connection to Jesus.
It sounds to me more that the Bishops are adopting the Tea Party
mindset that it's "my way or the highway." If that's the choice, then
I'll support the Girl Scouts over U.S. Catholic Bishops any day of the
week, and twice on Sunday.

AND we are over in China saving a man
who is confronting the government about
their wholesale state sponsored abortions.
Fucking hypocrites.
