Is it too late for Gates to get his colleague Eric Holder enrolled in the Boy Scouts?

I can’t imagine what it would have been like to not have been involved in Boy Scouts.

As a youth yes. As an adult leader no, but I doubt he could pass the adult leader traing requirements.

Voila!
You nailed it!
The problem with Mr Gates.
He is still a boy scout loyal ,obedient, brave, clean ,reverent to Bush, Obama, Stalin, Hitler, Pol Pot, Whoever.
He never became a Man.

SandRat, love your posts.

I’d feel more buddy-buddy with Gates had he enlisted, earned the rank of PFC and at least run a patrol in enemy territory.

Semper Fi, SandRat.

I was just thinking that exposure to that Boy Scout honor and integrity might help Mr. Holder do a better job running the Justice Department.

It would be an anathema to his ego flowing in one ear and out the other without meeting any resistance.

And the Scouts are still “don’t ask, don’t tell”. We should have found some other Eagle Scout to be Secretary of Defense, this one is clearly devolving.

Ya, I’m surprised to see anyone in authority in our gov’t praise scouting. Because of their stand on homoseuxal leaders, the Boy Scouts have been condemned by the left.

Yes, Homosexuals founded the boy scouting units in Germany. It is why homosexuality became the “national vice” and, of course, united the SA Brownshirts which also embraced Hitler.

It is so great that the real men have not allowed homosexuals to infiltrate the Boy Scouts in America. I know a few have snuck in to sodomize the boys but for the most part their leaders have been very vigilant, indeed, and are fighting the culture that wants to normalize pederasty again like in ancient pagan cultures.

It is the only group I donate to.
