a) dont tell me how the scouts should excercise their religious freedom. They can interpret christianity however they want

b)thats irrelavent

bro

I'm not your pal, friend

a) its kind of hard to interpret direct commandments straight from the horses mouth. all that preaching tolerence, and hanging out with whores and tax collectors. TAX COLLECTORS. If jesus can put up with hanging out with TAX COLLECTORS I think you should be able to stand having a few faeries in your little club. With those fruity little kerchiefs they make the scouts wear its no wonder the faeries wanted to join in. :rolleyes:

b) is it?


Seriously dude if you just don't want queers in your club, just say "we don't want queers in our club." Its really quite simple. And you can't get in legal trouble for it because youre a private org.

At a Glance

Boy Scouts 837,628 As of Dec. 2009
43000 is not even a drop in the bucket, and some were from other countries.

I guess the 100 year jamboree wasn't very important to them or you.
The only thing about it that is important to you is just another winger chance to take a shot at Obama. There are far more important things he's screwed up to be pissed at. This is just not one of them.

Obama can't be everywhere all the time. He can't please all the people all the time. I bet the Boy Scouts took it better than many of the adult posters here.

Isnt that what they said?

The B.S.A. said nothing negative about the President and his agenda.

5% seems like a decent amount to me. Especially given the economic climate right now. But no, it wasnt important to me. Im not a scout. It shouldnt have been important to Obama either. As you say, theres more important to things to be pissed at. He just spends a lot of his time doing anything but being President.

Oh... yeah will that was 2008.

Fear not... it will be back again come 2013.

:rolleyes:

Yes, clearly they were expressing their deep insights into modern US politics and weren't in any way reflecting the wishes of their parents and the right-wing media.

aaaahh so now we do care about the BSA and what they said, were doing there or weren't, what happened to whatever, hey they are just the BSA, whats the big deal? ....what a riot. A soon as some see a chance to splash some ridiculous shit on them, they care...

I don't really care that he didn't show up but are people really saying "The View" is more important than the BSA?

No, what they're saying is that one didn't preclude the other. The decision to not attend the Jamboree had nothing to do with the taping of the View.

yup, true no view, he went to a campaign donor function(s) . Hob nobbing with the editor/publisher of Vogue is oh so, hauteur couture and sooo there darling.......he just had to do it. It was a no brainer.

Said it from the git go, he went to be among his people and was exactly where he should have been and feels comfortable as opposed to hanging out with the Prols......
