NEW YORK (AP) -- For the physician in Illinois, the attorney in Kentucky, the arts editor in Oregon, their Eagle Scout medals were treasured reminders of youthful achievement. Yet each is parting with his medal out of dismay over the Boy Scouts' recently reaffirmed policy of excluding gays.
###
In contrast to Obama, Republican candidate Mitt Romney does have a public position on the Scouts' policy -- he politely disagrees with it.
Back in 1994, during a political debate in Massachusetts, Romney said this: "I support the right of the Boy Scouts of America to decide what it wants to do on that issue. I feel that all people should be able to participate in the Boy Scouts regardless of their sexual orientation."
A Romney spokeswoman, Andrea Saul, said in an e-mail that this remains Romney's position today.

“If these people feel so strongly about the issue..they should start a parallel boys club that accepts gay leaders and kids and others who wish to join.”
They can call it the ‘Boys Scouting Boys Scouts’...or the ‘Dung Punching Boy Scouts’...and each campout a different boy gets to sleep with the leader...or maybe we can just call it ‘The Happy Valley Boys Club of America’.
And the ‘leader’ who subverts the most boys gets to sleep with Romney...’cause Mitt says it’s ok...
But not until after the election...we would not want to give the MSM a ‘real’ issue...
And no, I did not forget the /s tag...that this is not.
... i.e., "Democrats."
That is curous, and I would be interested in what the results of the IP addy check would be. Throwaway handles just to stir the pot?
Expect lots more wierdness between now and November.
Like the nic. Something startle you, are are you the one doing the startling? ;)
I have been off FR and out of politics for about 11 years now. I have dedicated my. Life to Christ and Christian ministry. I have been reactivated do to my alarm over the policies of the Obama administration. I’m confused and a bit frustrated that the threat is not obvious to all. Fight to oust Obama or you lift the hemlock to your countries lips.
Sorry. I have principles.
You, presumably, have some of your own as well. You adhere to yours; I'll do likewise, to mine.
We hear the same thing every four years from the RINO establishment and their supporters.
The very definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a new result. The RINOs insisted that we had to vote for their liberal nomine or the country would not survive. All we got was bigger, more intrusive, more expensive government.
The RINO establishment treats conservatives worse than Democrats treat Black Christians. Yet they expect us to vote for their liberal candidates. Well, they went to that well once too often.
Im resigned to the fact that we are going to have a statist president. But it will not be because I voted for a statist. I will not vote for a pro-abortion, pro-amnesty, anti-Second Amendment, pro-homo marriage, and pro-homo military, pro-socialized medicine candidate of any party.
Youre free to have different values. I dont judge you for supporting those things with your vote. It isnt my place to judge you. It is my responsibility to vote for someone who holds the same values as I do. That is what I intend to do.
When you fight for Romney, you fight for DEATH PANELS
and ObamaCARE and TAXES and gay marriage and TARP
and improper executive authority.
Romney is the KING of DEATH PANELS .. and therefore
you support him, right?
I plan to vote for Romney, as will all of my family and 99% of my friends. Does that make us Romneybots or does it just make us anti Barry Soetoro the Marxist pig?
Sounds selfserving and disingenuous.
Mr. RomneyCARE created death panels, gay marriage,
AND ObamaCARE and has NEVER said otherwise.
Mr. RomneyCARE will not even ADMIT what he did.
Sounds selfserving and disingenuous.
LOOK HOW HAPPY Mr. RomneyCARE was imposing ObamaCARE.
Have you ever seen him this happy???????
YOU understand his imposing ObamaCARE?
Tell us please, Judge.
YOU understand why he ignored the Mass. Constitution
to impose gay marriage?
Tell us please, Judge.
Tell us why you believe a proven liar, Judge.
Over 50,000 Boy Scouts earn the title “Eagle Scout” every year, but the Democrat newsrooms need only a small handful to push the cowardly scumbag Mittens to the left. They will do this on each and every issue, and the cowardly, unprincipled Mittens will happily oblige until he is maybe just a hair to the right of Ubama. It’s ‘Kennedy/Romney 1994’ all over again.
If you can handle it, Google the old Kennedy/Romney debate videos from 1994 and be ready for a very painful experience. Watch Mittens try to out-liberal Teddy Kennedy and please the Democrat newsrooms. Watch Mittens fade from early frontrunner to landslide loser in a real hurry. Of course, I am pretty sure you will be able to see the replay this Fall in the Ubama/Romney debates.
The scumbag “moderate” Mittens will find a way to lose the race, count on that. In any event, Mittens will never get my vote.
What kind of “judge” could you possibly be?
You ignore facts. Even when they are before you.
You support perjury by Mr. RomneyCARE.
Even when evidence is brought before you
that he lied repeatedly.
And YOU demand others believe him?
You support Mr. RomneyCARE’s
tendency to pick DNC judges, and then you
mislead about it. Right from your own keyboard.
America cannot afford disingenuous officials or judges,
“Judge”.
Judge
