Romney in 1994 said that children should be allowed to participate IN the boy scouts regardless of their sexual orientation. That’s a different matter than allowing a homosexual to be a leader.

Completely wrong. Where did you get that ridiculous spin?

It's better to make up lies about things that Romney hasn't publicly stated and admitted to.

The question spoke to membership, not leadership, and the answer spoke to participation, not leadership.

However, someone has pointed out to me that adults to “join” the boy scouts and therefore are considered “members”. I was thinking of “members” as being the boys who are part of scouting, not the adult volunteers.

The membership form seems to indicate you can be an adult member without being a leader.

But the point wasn’t that it was limited to boys, but that the question and answer did not deal with leadership.
