Boy Scouts can’t have military support
“The Pentagon has agreed to warn military bases worldwide that they should not directly sponsor Boy Scout troops, partially resolving claims that the government has improperly supported a group that requires members to believe in God.”

What a joke! The Pentagon didn’t even put up a fight on this one. As I have learned in the past few years, Republicans aren’t fighters at all. It’s “Rule by layer” now. How is it that the ACLU has become such a powerful entity that no one even questions them? Just what has the country won in this election? Where is the “cashing in” that Bush claimed he’d do? Just as I’ve felt for a long time, I sure don’t like the Democrats of today but it’s getting harder and harder to tell the difference anymore.

What get’s me is that most Marine basic training programs that I am aware of involve loyalty to God, Corps, and Country. Has the first one been removed now? And another thing: THE PEOPLE HAVE SPOKEN!! America stated in this election what they want for this country. I’m getting tired of hearing people argue that a majority of America also voted to maintain slavery at one time. What does that mean then?! That the people aren’t capable of voting for anything anymore? That was then, this is now. Holding to that argument means that you don’t think that the general public is able to make a decision on their own… Sounds a lot like some pretty bad dictatorships I’ve seen in the past (and some still today).
