THIS is what the GOP-e wanted to elect for President.

Tell me again how Romney was that much different than Obama.

Next Saturday will mark the official end of our involvement with BSA. We will present my son with his Eagle Scout rank that he earned last December, just before we switched over to Trail Life USA.

It’s sad to see one of the most important and respected organizations for young men to commit suicide.

I am happy that I lived in the true Norman Rockwell world during the mid 40’s through the late 60’s. The world was a much more decent place back then and individual responsibility ruled the day.

Now, look at the vast wasteland of irresponsibility we now live in today.

What was the poison that killed it? Compromise and Political Correctness. Will it ever be revived? NOT A CHANCE IN HELL!

My unsolicited $0.02?

I didn't pull my kid out of scouting when all this nonsense came about last year. I figured (correctly) that he would look at it as a punishment - even if it wasn't - and I thought that it was wrong to punish him for the actions of a few idiots at the top of the scouting food chain. Instead, I got *very* involved with the pack, figuring that if it turned out that there was a problem, I'd be aware of it and could easily deal with it.

Instead, I shouldn't have bothered worrying. The pack membership dropped by half, almost overnight. Frankly, I doubt that there will be a pack next year, there just aren't any kids participating. I don't know if parents are pulling them out, or the kids are dropping out. I'd guess that it's about 50-50.

I wrestled with my decision on this matter for a long time. And, I damn the gays for forcing people to make decisions that frankly, should never have needed consideration in a rational world.

This is not the America that I grew up in. Not even close.

Why is a 17 yr old even gay or straight? Am I so old that I can remember a time where sexuality was not part of being a teenager? I mean, it really wasn't. Even dating was a kind of courtship, not a booty call. It is so terrible that this has to be a problem for the scouts.

"Morally straight" means refraining from sexual activity. How about "openly moral" for a change?

As with most libs, they demand A, and when you give them A, they then demand B. They will never be satisfied until the Boy Scouts are destroyed.

The answer is to never give in, even a little bit.
