JOHNSTOWN - Television news anchor Chris Matthews is a Boy Scout for life, or rather a Life Boy Scout, and he can prove it.
“I was Life, I'll be glad to show you my documentation,” he said, holding up a number of merit badges during the press conference for the 39th Annual Greater Johnstown Partners for Scouting Harry E. Mangle Memorial Dinner.
Matthews, widely known as the host of “Hardball with Chris Matthews” on MSNBC, was in Johnstown Thursday as the dinner's keynote speaker.
The fundraising event also honored Concurrent Technologies Corp. President and CEO Edward Sheehan Jr. as the recipient of the Penn's Woods Council's 2009 Distinguished Citizen Award.
While meeting with the press before a private reception, Matthews took time to reminisce about his experiences in Scouting, his relationship with Rep. John Murtha and how President Barack Obama was handling his first days in office.

Question: Why did he abandon the ideals of the Boy Scouts? He abandoned his country’s ideals!
I would check to see if he was ever a Boy Scout and if those badges are really his. It might humilate him. I smell rat and he smells...
Wasn’t Chrissy Matthews a girl scout?
.
Or, does he just think they SHOULD accept the Gay agenda per Scouts?
Questions that should be asked and answered; given that he showed up. . .
No, no, no. Chrissy was waaaay more Camp Fire Girl material than GS.
How are his liberal bosses at MSNBC going to take this?
The Boy Scouts are personas non grata to liberals.
Life Scout is a RANK, not meaning a “Scout for Life”. It is two ranks below Eagle Scout Rank. Holding up Merit badges means nothing if he wants to prove his Scout Rank as a YOUTH. He needs to find his rank certification card showing when he was advanced to Life RANK.
Means nothing if a person doesn’t live by the Scout Law: Trustworthy, Loyal, Helpful, Friendly, Courteous, Kind, Obedient, Cheerful, Thrifty, Brave, Clean, Reverent, which are high moral standards. Sorry Chrissy, you failed, turn in your Life Scout RANK, we don’t want you embarrassing us.
Former Scout/Scoutmaster
OOPS Life Scout, ONE rank below Eagle Scout. too early.
We don't need no steenkin badges.
Actually, more like a Brownie.
Chris Matthews ...aka Mr. Tingles Up Leg For Obama ... shouldn’t be allowed anywhere near Boy Scouts.
If there was a Brown Nose and Bullsh** merit badge, I’m sure old Chrissy would have it ...
Looks like he’s hitting the rubber chicken circuit before running for PA senate - how else to explain?
Why was he there? Looking for a “date”?
What the hell is Chrissy doing among Boy Scouts? He outed himself months ago; he shouldn’t be anywhere NEAR them.
admitting to being a Boy Scout is the kiss of death in a liberal race, unless you campaign by denouncing them
My cousin attorney and unapologetic BS leader found out his BS membership was grounds for local libs to deny him a chance to ever be a judge
Nope, just a very big sissy boy.
Two things, do ya think chrissy matthews got regular ass whoopins in school by the girls?
Would ya bet money that chrissy matthews has had a homosexual affair?
Hmmmm! Was he in the Order of the Arrow?
That might explain it all.
