K&R for the Girl Scout cookies!!! I never bother with the boy scouts here, way too evil IMO. n/t RKP5637 Jan 2013 #3

And you post this without any comment refuting rw tripe? Lars39 Jan 2013 #4

Are refuting comments even necessary with this? WilliamPitt Jan 2013 #8

Yes, I think they are....there were specifics given in that chart that should be disclaimed loudly. Lars39 Jan 2013 #10

agreed Euphoria Jan 2013 #14

Hmm? a2liberal Jan 2013 #80

I hope they're true! When's the season anyway? tblue Jan 2013 #151

Uhm. Did you even read it? Politicub Jan 2013 #53

Did you? The language in it slants right wing. Lars39 Jan 2013 #111

Seems obvious to me that the OP is promoting purchase of Girl Scout cookies MH1 Jan 2013 #125

Presenting this right wing chart as fact does not go very far to "each one teach one", Lars39 Jan 2013 #129

lmao. You are adorable. TeamPooka Jan 2013 #157

It's all true WolverineDG Jan 2013 #173

Do you support what you posted?? Angry Dragon Jan 2013 #9

This is from a conservative page, but it will definitely make me want to buy more Girl Scout Cookies Playinghardball Jan 2013 #15

So why bring a negative thing from a conservative source here? Lars39 Jan 2013 #21

Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm..................... Isoldeblue Jan 2013 #33

I'm all for that strategy, but it should be labelled as such and not just silently presented. Lars39 Jan 2013 #34

Well, that's life...... Isoldeblue Jan 2013 #35

Sigh....Times they are a changin'....this site used to pride itself on its sourcing. Lars39 Jan 2013 #36

Sad, isn't it? "Consider the source" is not just a trite saying; it's actually important Hekate Jan 2013 #127

Agreed. Lars39 Jan 2013 #130

As a lesbian and Girl Scout -- I'm glad they posted it obamanut2012 Jan 2013 #103

Because it's hilarious? MH1 Jan 2013 #126

you see negative while the rest of us see positive. TeamPooka Jan 2013 #150

Not everyone on this thread saw it positively. Lars39 Jan 2013 #155

irony and sarcasm are lost on you. TeamPooka Jan 2013 #161

I see a lot of things. Lars39 Jan 2013 #162

I see nothing negative about it. Scruffy Rumbler Jan 2013 #175

It is written with right wing language and accusatory tone. Lars39 Jan 2013 #180

Why didnt you comment in the OP? nm rhett o rick Jan 2013 #23

Just looking at the image... It is written in a highly biased manner. TheBlackAdder Jan 2013 #11
