Obama: Boy Scouts Should Expose
Homosexuals to Opportunities

Cybercast News Service, by Susan Jones

Original Article

Posted By:KarenJ1, 2/4/2013 1:59:28 PM

One day after President Obama said "yes," he thinks the Boy Scouts of America should admit homosexuals -- to expose them to "opportunities and leadership" -- dozens of conservative groups are running a newspaper ad, urging the Boy Scouts to "show courage" and "stand for timeless values." The 41 conservative organizations, in a full-page ad in Monday´s USA Today, said it would be a "grave mistake" for BSA to change their longstanding policy against having openly homosexual Scout leaders or Scouts. In a Sunday interview with "60 Minutes"

He´s so ignorant he doesn´t even realize the significance of that statement.

Yes, they would certainly be exposed to opportunities. That´s the problem.

Why stop there? If homosexual males are entitled to "opportunities and leadership" with little boys, where is the "fair shot" for heterosexual males eager to take little girls camping?

What a fool. Allowing homosexuals as scout leader guarantees that the BSA will be sued and end up paying out millions to molestation victims just like the Catholic Church. But maybe that´s his plan. Destroy anything valuble and traditional in this country.

It would surprise me if they are able to buy any kind of insurance coverage involving sexual misdeeds.

Anyone remotely paying attention knows *exactly* what the ´gay lobby´ would expose the BSA to...

So Obama is advocating what...a trade off? We´ll expose you to the skills needed for survival, and GLSEN will bring the HIV?

Wise up adults - 15 years of preaching ´gay is normal and healthy´ has the CDC reporting currently the *only* demographic where HIV is still on the upswing - is the 1000 adolescent and young adult males contracting HIV *monthly* these days.

And Obama wants a merit badge for ´alternative sexual lifestyles´? As if.

The Scouts are poised to forfeit everything they stand for in the name of ´acceptance of perversion´.

So much for the ´honor´ bit...

More opportunities for the families of molestation victims to sue the BSA?

More opportunities to decrease BSA membership even further?

If the BSA goes this route, I do believe there will be another organization that will take over the high moral road of scouting and it won´t take long either. Most of scouting is sponsered by churches that don´t pay lip service to God.

I was thinking along those same lines, #18. My former Scoutmaster husband is wondering why no pressers/public statements by Church-sponsored troop leaders and District Councilmen. Their silence is not a good sign. The initial news was "leaked" to see the reaction, after all. We are about to see which Churches pull out of BSA immediately upon this vote going against us OR which ones make excuses, dither, etc.

Agree with #20. they ought to establish their own organization.

Most people seem to forget that part of the First Amendment is the RIGHT to association (to form associations), meaning in part that no-one has the right to force anyone to join or to force an organization to accept people´s whose goals and views are antithetical to the organization´s.

This sounds like the dream-come-true of NAMBLA.

Please, Boy Scouts, protect these young men.

Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell´s campaign has contacted the FBI after a recording of a private strategy meeting was published Tuesday in a liberal publication, claiming the campaign was the victim of "Watergate-style tactics" to bug the office. Several snippets of the audio from the February strategy sessions were published Tuesday by Mother Jones magazine, along with a lengthy article. The recording, obtained from an unnamed source, included McConnell aides discussing ways to politically damage actress Ashley Judd, who at the time was talked about as a possible McConnell challenger.

Lord Bell said: "It is with great sadness that Mark and Carol Thatcher announced that their mother Baroness Thatcher died peacefully following a stroke this morning."

Having been education secretary, she successfully challenged former prime minister Edward Heath for her party´s leadership in 1975.

One of the first political issues negotiators must tackle in crafting an immigration reform bill is among the most important: what to name it. It’s a decision that will bruise egos, create legacies and deeply affect subsequent messaging battles. “Every time the bill is mentioned in the press, you either have a brand that´s positive or a brand that doesn´t mean anything or even hurts you,” said Frank Sharry, the executive director of the pro-immigration reform group America’s Voice. The wrong name, he warned, could doom a good bill. “If there´s not a

HARTFORD, Conn. -- With time running out on the chance to pass gun control legislation, President Barack Obama on Monday warned Congress not to use delaying tactics against tighter regulations and told families of the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting victims that he´s "determined as ever" to honor their children with tougher laws. Obama´s gun control proposals have run into resistance on Capitol Hill, leaving their fate in doubt. Efforts by Senate Democrats to reach compromise with Republicans over expanding required federal background checks have yet to yield an agreement, and conservatives were promising to try

Don’t hide behind a procedural action to prevent a vote. That’s the wrong thing to do, and that’s how the president clearly feels.”

There was growing buzz over the weekend that a bipartisan agreement on gun control — a deal that would expand background checks — could hit the floor as early as this week. However, any deal could be derailed by the looming threat of a Republican filibuster involving Texas Sen. Ted Cruz. With Cruz standing proudly in the way of any gun legislation, Democrats are trying to make him pay a political price — and even a couple of high-profile Republicans are questioning his tactics.

The case of a same-sex Connecticut couple accused of repeatedly raping and abusing two of their nine adopted boys is headed for trial. Married couple George Harasz and Douglas Wirth of Glastonbury were supposed to be sentenced Friday in Hartford Superior Court under a plea deal, but instead withdrew from their agreement with prosecutors. The men had already pleaded no contest in January to one felony count each of risk of injury to a minor — a reduction from even more serious charges related to sexual assault....

More than six months since Ambassador Christopher Stevens was assassinated by terrorists in Benghazi, the Obama administration is still trying to keep a lid on information about the attack. Congress and the American people need to know what happened the night of Sept. 11, 2012. Who did the killing and what was their motive? Why wasn´t help sent? And why did the administration lie about who was responsible? Members of Congress have asked hundreds of questions at hearings conducted by several investigative committees, but many of the most significant have been left unanswered.
