Where does the great orator stand? I see that President Obama is encouraging the Boy Scouts to embrace the homosexuals into their organizations. How sick is this? Homosexuals don't need to be around children regardless what Obama thinks. He must really owe these people a lot. With all the problems we face in this country, we sure need to concentrate on something more important.

I think Obama's ethics are mixed up. We hear of the ethic committees charging others in their ranks for lying to Congress. There is a law forbidding people from lying to Congress. However, there is no law to prevent Congress from lying to us taxpayers as lawmakers do daily.

Leave the Boy Scouts alone and try to straighten out our politicians. We need a recall law badly in Illinois and in Washington, D.C. This way we could possibly get rid of a few long-term deadbeats we have in politics.
