Yet another reason to be ashamed to be from Ohio

http://www.wkyc.com/news/news_fullstory.asp?id=17354

CINCINNATI -- An alternative to Girl Scouts is gaining popularity across the country.

Mothers and daughters say they're unhappy with the policies that the Girl Scouts organization promotes, including accepting lesbians as troop leaders and banning prayer at meetings.

Some, including members of a troop in Texas, are turning to a Christian group called American Heritage Girls. A Cincinnati woman founded AHG in 1995.

end of quote

yet another pathetic idea from Ohio. I am beginning to wonder just what state I am living in. It is hard to believe but we were among the first states to remove anti sodomy laws in the 1970's. Now we are a disgrace.

1. But you have Dennis Kucinich

He reminds me of my favorite Minnesotan, Paul Wellstone. Both inspired speakers.

2. No,

The biggest reason is Bob "I talk with the biggest shit eating grin on my face at all times" Taft, who turned his back on one of the largest gay communities in the nation (Columbus HUGE scene) and was supportive of one of the worst pieces of anti gay legislation in the country.

He is a dick with ears, and trades hugs with Wally "I will deliver Ohio to Bush" O'Dell, (diebold)

5. He actually spent taxpayer money to get his face plastered on

tourism TV ads. For a casino. (hint - there are no casinos in Ohio).

This is harped by the afternoon post-Rush-partum host, who cannot see that when he says that Bob Taft had four years, screwed up the state, said "Give me four more years and I'll fix what I effed up", he is also explaining why we need to get rid of Bush, whom he loves.

3. Here's the good news:

The little fascists' moms and dads will have to build or rent camps, design and construct their uniforms, support an office system for membership crap, and subsist on private funds only. I hope this little stunt bankrupts them!

I can't wait for their cookie sale! I don't buy cookies from fascists!

4. This is the correct answer. However, what do you want to bet these

little tykes get a little "faith-based funding"?
