My grandmother was a big believer in the girls and boys clubs of America. She supported them for many years.

She would be so disappointed in them now.

I wonder if this will cause AG to tone down their response to customers. You can read one of their responses on this thread.

Outstanding way to take a stand.

A Catholic school in Waukesha County is the first non-profit group in the nation to cancel a coveted American Girl Fashion Show amid concerns that the Wisconsin-based doll company behind the show gives money to a national girls organization that presents abortion, contraception and a lesbian sexual orientation as acceptable.

I expect the school will be sued over this. Probably pro-bono by the ACLU.

"We are profoundly disappointed that certain groups have chosen to misconstrue American Girl's purely altruistic efforts and turn them into a broader political statement on issues that we, as a corporation, have no position," the statement says. "The American Girl brand exemplifies the values of wholesomeness and responsibility that we would expect any organization to commend."

Just heard similar clap-trap from Walgreens. Pretentious, insincere, and empty language many Americans, thankfully, can see through. In their arrogance, the only discomfort they feel originates from their pocket-books. I'm pleased to oblige them with such discomfort.

"I Can" program the doll and clothing company launched Sept. 19 to encourage girls to follow their dreams and to raise money for Girls Inc.

How about a "I Can't" program for the 20,000,000 girls who can't "follow their dreams" because they were killed by abortions?
