Since when are the BSA required to have gay scoutmasters?
_______________________________

That’s the issue. Since the ‘90’s the Boy Scouts have been under pressure to allow homosexual scoutmasters. Many of the United Way organizations have pulled the Scouts right to recieve donations through the United Way because of the issue. Just last year the city of Philadelphia ended a “perpetual” lease agreement on a property the Scouts donated to the city to avoid taxes many decades ago. They did this when the Scouts refused to allow homosexual scoutmasters. It’s a big issue with left wing pressure heavy on the Scouts. Romney said in that debate that all people regardless of sexual orientation should be allowed to be Scout Masters. No way I’d ever consider a man like that for the Presidency.

Everything you say is true, I know this. But Romney correctly says the BSA have the right to decide the issue. He should stopped right there and said nothing more. The BSA have taken alot of heat for taking a stand, the right one I might add. Problem is, I’m sure there are many closet gay scout masters.
