Strange the reaction in Boston. The outpouring of kind words has been astounding. It seems odd because he was a tried and true libertarian, which is almost the exact opposite of a democrat.

Brudnoy was impossible not to like.

He was nice to everyone, always patient, funny, witty and urbane.

David Brudnoy supported having those addicted to Homosexuality hold leadership positions in the Boy Scouts. By that measure he was indeed a spokesman for the cult of homosexuality agenda so he would be popular in Massachusetts.

I was asked to be here tonight in part as a signal of the Boston Minuteman Council's cold war with the national Boy Scouts of America headquartered in Irving, Texas. I say cold war because there is no shooting, no shouting, just a tough disagreement separating the national organization, which demands a cruel discrimination doing nothing but enshrining a bigotry, and the Minuteman Council, which last year, in its policy of nondiscrimination, signed by Brock Bigsby, declared as unacceptable "bias, intolerance, and unlawful discrimination" in serving thousands of youths "without regard to color, race, religion, ethnic background, sexual orientation, or economic status." In joining councils in New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Philadelphia, San Francisco, and Minneapolis - my natal city - the Council in Boston, my adopted city for 40 years, said forcefully that it will not judge the worthiness of a boy to share in the remarkable experience of scouting on the basis of what his sexual orientation is or may be, nor the competence of an older boy or man to be a leader, on the same irrelevant criterion.

He was an institution here. He did not make many/any enemies. He was friends with most in the media. The reaction cannot be that unexpected.
