So 6 months later they are going to ignore a 2 year review to a President and one of his interest groups that hate the Boy Scouts and have cost them to spend millions to defend it in court. This President couldn't be bothered to make the Centennial of the Boy Scouts a few miles from the White House.

ruling out any changes despite relentless protest campaigns by some critics.

How many of these critics were parents eager to have their sons raped. And, how many of these critics were homosexuals eager to sodomize young boys?

This was not a good election for the Boy Scouts, both candidates wanted to homosexualize them, Romney has promoted it for almost 20 years.

I just emailed their leader at Wayne.Brock@Scouting.org

Calling is better, but if you can’t call, you can email. If possible, do both!

It looks like the BSA outwitted the leftists this time by going around the leftist infiltrated national board. There are at least two leftist moles on the national board that need to be replaced asap.

Speaking about the leftists on the board -I had a wild thought the other day when considering how the leftists had gotten this far by infiltrating the BSA national board and it came to me that perhaps it was one or both of these leftists that was behind the released information pertaining to the so called 'BSA perversion files' that were trumpeted all over the leftist media recently as a way to discredit the national BSA leadership.

I wonder?

None of this is about tolerating homosexuals in the Boy Scouts. There are, and have been, gays in the scouts since I was a kid and there are gays in the scouts today.

I sent this to the BSA this weekend...

We had our Klondike Derby this weekend and I was around a lot of adult scout leaders. Not surprisingly, the gay ban was on most people’s minds. I can tell you that there were THREE very vocal proponents — two of which were our scout master and assistant scout master. Many parents were unhappy with this strong support but felt that voicing such concerns would stigmatize them.

Personally, I am disappointed that an organization built on a strong value system has put find raising above those values. I think you are doing this all wrong.

First, stop talking about this. Do not respond to questions and do not make statements. Second, instead of chasing the wavering supporters, promote the solid supporters. Include a list of scout friendly merchants as part of your parent communications and encourage scout families to support these friends of scouting. Scouting families buy a lot and should be seen as something to be wooed.

I’m concerned that the BSA is the next JCP. Penny changed their values to woo an attractive demographic. The attractive demographic would never patronize JC Penny, so few new customers were gained. The wooing process chased away a lot of customers who were offended by the changes and JCP now has no customers.

Just last fall senate and presidential candidates lost elections after campaigns distancing themselves from values voters — democrat voters didn’t believe them and republicans did.

The BSA is (was) an organization based on values. It’s OK if people who do not like those values do not support us. It’s not ok if the people who like those values do not support us.

Check the date, FReepers. This isn't a done deal. Scouts is still considering allowing homosexual leaders. Please call and respectfully disagree.

“With the country moving toward inclusion perversion, the leaders of the Boy Scouts of America have instead sent a message to young people that only some of them are valued all of them should be protected,” he said. “They’ve chosen to teach division and intolerance one of America's fundamental liberties - Freedom of Association.”

Why must Socialists inject sex, warped or otherwise, into EVERYTHING? Particularly when it involves kids who are really too young to even give it more than a passing nod; kids who have a narrow window of time to enjoy other things in life - before they have to grow up and take on huge responsibilities in life? - Obama seems to be obsessed with warped sex; but even he still likes to shoot hoops and tap the golf balls much of the time.

The BSA is a private organization and can play by the rules it chooses.

Personally, I think that if a group believes there should be a scouting organization that welcomes homosexuals, they can start their own such organization. They can call it the Rump Rangers and invent a whole new set of merit badges, for all I care. They don't need to wedge themselves into the BSA.

This is an old article.....And it looks like the Scouts have changed their mind since then.

When one endorses sanctions or subsidizes poor behavior you get more poor behavior. Kudos to the BSA for recognizing and encouraging the best behavior.

RE :”NEW YORK (AP) — After a confidential two-year review, the Boy Scouts of America on Tuesday emphatically reaffirmed its policy of excluding gays, ruling out any changes despite relentless protest campaigns by some critics.
An 11-member special committee, formed discreetly by top Scout leaders in 2010, “came to the conclusion that this policy is absolutely the best policy for the Boy Scouts,” the organization’ national spokesman, Deron Smith, told The Associated Press. “

Good, they recently sent me a note thanking me for my Dec 31 donation. I was hoping it wouldnt be my last

Un mentioned was the mandaory Youth Protection program that is required for all BSA leaders to protect scouts from the sexual predators.

The amount of time and of money spent to protect boys is extremely great and should be unnecessary. In a previous age, the predators would be beaten to pink pulp. That policy might be necessary again. Screw around with the boys and you may not walk well again. The legal system has failed and the tyrannical lawyers that run it for their own benefit should be bypassed untill they get their priorities straight.

Also to mention that when a Boy Scout earns the rank of Eagle they do not receive a signed (autopen) congrats letter from the President. I got mine in 1979.

I never could understand why this was even an issue. Sexual deviancy, no matter if wanting to sodomize boys or sheep or dog or goats, would be tolerated by an organization that works with children. How in our world can someone be called anything but sexually deviant that does such a thing and still expect to participate with children?

Why don’t these pedophiles start their own politically correct and tolerant scout troop? They could name it AAA Anal Army of America!
