GRAND RAPIDS -- Former Massachusetts governor and Michigan native Mitt Romney said Thursday night it "breaks my heart to see this state having so much difficulty in so many places." Romney, speaking to hundreds at the Boy Scouts of America Gerald R. Ford Council's Building Character Celebration Dinner, said he has a better idea for leadership. "I'm convinced that if Boy Scouts were running things here in Michigan, you'd be a lot better off," Romney said to hefty applause at DeVos Place, 303 Monroe Ave. NW.

That was kinda dumb remark since the Republicans have taken over Michigan government.

Now if only we could whip the RINO out of our governor.

Q: What’s the difference between government and Boy Scouts?

A: The Boy Scouts have responsible, adult leadership.

.

I made it to Life before enlisting at 17.
My son is a 1st class, ready for Star at the age of 15.

He has plans to make it all the way to Eagle.

Scouts have proven leadership training that has stood the test of time in bringing about a stronger America.

That explains why the Dim’s are so scared of them.

Not only a moron but a coward. So what if he mistakes one rank from another. Just correct it. Its not like your talking about something important that people would doubt your integrity on ...like murdering innocent babies before they are born.
