I just read up on this. Tillerson was in favor of the membership change and spoke in favor of it.

Huge strike against him.

I left BSA and took my whole troop to Trail Life USA in January 2013.

I see you’re a Levin listener. So which picks do you hate and why?

So you think he’s going to be promoting a gay agenda throughout the world? Is that a real concern...

Yes, the “rumor” being reported is that Tillerson will be SecState and Bolton will be his DepSecState - just keep your fingers crossed and PRAY!

BTW I’ve been listening to various speeches and rountables Mr Tillerson has participated in on youtube, and I am mightily impressed ...

once again, PEOTUS Trump is thinking “outside the box” and lightyears ahead of everyone else ...

... man I gotta take a break from all this WINNING, I can’t take any more ....

“Trump has gone a bridge too far here picking a career corportist to head State...”

State, and Commerce, and Education, and EPA, and Labor...

I’m sorry, but it’s very very bad.

Less than 24 hours after the volunteer delegates voted to change the BSA’s membership policy for youth, Tillerson addressed a large room full of Scouting volunteers and professionals at the closing general session of the BSA’s National Annual Meeting.

I realize you have your feeling hurt because Cruz didn’t make the cut but how about just watching instead of whining.

So far Trump has picked outstanding people.

And KGB Vlad decorated him with a medal. This guy is DOA in the Senate. Seems Trump really wants to have a food fight with the Senate. The question is, why?

Yeah, the cheap labor express corportist heading the LABOR dept. is juts a brilliant stroke. LOL. I’ve been with Trump since the “Mexican rapist” speech but he’s pulled off a couple of avoidable own goals here. He can do better.

It’s what Trump promised. He said all along he would choose “killers” from the private sector.

On the bright side Tillerson does have vast experience bribing tin pot dictators and filling their coffers.

This is Trump's tool to dismantle the anti-American state department. People don't go from an engineer to CEO in something as complex as the oil indrusty without being smart at every level. Trump will hammer and cut state until they put America and Americans first.

Sort of like Trump donating to everybody to get zoning permits and things when he needs them? I don't fault Trump for that. And being consistent, I don't fault Tillerson either.

The Labor Dept pick is the only one that I can tell is definitely a Cheap Labor Express guy.
Everybody tells me not to worry, he’ll toe the line, we’ll see.

Absolutely. But United States Senators are not. And Trump needs 50 of them to confirm his pick for Sec. of State. Right now that is extremely doubtful.

Yes, and with JOHN BOLTON as his Deputy in charge of running day to day operations at STATE!!

Bolton is a big positive.
