Ish: I have looked but can find nothing to corroborate your allegation the United Way is paying for attorneys to defend those who aided and abetted the 9/11 terrorists. However, the Supreme Court "affirmed the Scouts’ right to set standards for leadership within their organization. This apparently infuriated the politically correct cultural elites. Almost immediately, the anti-Scout campaign was launched, with the Scouts being branded as intolerant." So do the United Way's actions demonstrate "politically correct eliteness"? Why should politics play a part in compassion. Do donations come with strings attached? If it came to a vote, would more people be in favor or against the United Way's stand against the Boy Scouts?
