Bet you never thought you would see the conservative American Family Association of Indiana embrace Democrat House Leader Patrick Bauer and deride GOP House Speaker Brian Bosma.
But that's what happened Thursday when the association sent out a release defending Rep. Bob Morris' comments about the Girl Scouts' alleged association with Planned Parenthood.
In the statement, they note that Bosma repeatedly -- and publicly -- mocked Morris last week on the House floor and at a political roast, including eating and giving Girl Scout cookies away and wearing a Girl Scout sash.
The Associaton points out that the Bosma-led House killed the only pro-life legislation moving this year
"It appears as though Speaker Bosma has more zeal for bad behavior than he does for doing what is right," the statement said. "Or perhaps it is just that he seems to be more interested in mocking a conservative more than he is fighting his true ideological opponents on the political left."
The Association also notes that Bauer is a political bulldog "but at least he publicly treats his members with respect in regard to their political convictions. Bosma should do the same."
