Girl Scouts Sleaze: Replaces "Homopunk" Rocker With Abortion Advocate

By Rick Pearcey • January 10, 2014, 09:43 AM

Austin Ruse writes at Breitbart.com:

The Girl Scouts want you to know that nothing has happened to Josh Ackley. Last month, Breitbart News reported that Ackley -- the main media spokesman for the Scouts -- was also the lead singer of a "homopunk" band, The Dead Betties, who made several controversial videos, including one where a woman is strangled and another where a young man writhes naked on the ground and appears to touch his genitals.

Within a few days of the story breaking, the Girl Scouts scrubbed Ackley from their media page, though the Scouts tweeted on December 19 that he was still around: "We’re happy to clear this up for you. Not only is Josh Ackley still employed, no one has been demoted."

"Many who watch the Girl Scouts and their leftward drift viewed the Josh Ackley scandal as merely a sideshow -- certainly an illumination into the current Girl Scout mindset, but still just a sideshow," Ruse writes. 

"The real story of the rolling Girl Scout scandal," Ruse continues, "is their attachment to feminist politics, particularly their connection to Planned Parenthood, which is the largest single abortion provider in the United States. . . .

"So, it came as no surprise that the new Girl Scout media spokesman came from the Ms. Foundation, one of the preeminent abortion advocacy groups in the country. . . . According to their own website, in 2012 the Ms Foundation for Women contributed more than $1 million to abortion advocacy."
