Texas Gov. Rick Perry will be among the speakers at the "Stand with Scouts Sunday" nationwide simulcast event to support Boy Scouts of America's membership policies on homosexuality.

Perry, a recipient of the Distinguished Eagle Scout Award, will be joined by Tony Perkins, president of the Family Research Council, the organization that's hosting the Stand with Scouts Sunday event, along with John Stemberger, Eagle Scout and founder of OnMyHonor.Net, a coalition of BSA parents and scouting leaders, who are asking members of the national council to vote "No" on the BSA's resolution to lift the ban on openly gay membership.

Too bad Rick Perry was labeled as an idiot by the media. I guarantee you he would have done better than pro-queer Willard Romney. Anyone think conservatives would have stayed home if Perry had been the nominee. Not on your life. This is a man of integrity and honor, and he damn sure would have never caved in to the queers of America.

Romney didn’t cave to the homosexuals, he truly believes in their cause, and has never wavered in his support of homosexualizing the Boy Scouts and the military over the last 20 years.

Any scout volunteer who has spent serious time on boy scout outings would NEVER support allowing homosexuals into scouting. The chances of serious behavioral problems would increase 100% or more, in my opinion.

The very fact that the national council is even supporting a resolution to allow openly gay scouts indicates a lack of judgement and experience with boys and scouts of all ages. Somehow greed and corruption has crept into the ranks of the national council, IMO.

God Bless Governor Perry!
