FROM THE LITTLE MAN IN THE BIG OFFICE TO THE BOY SCOUTS


The story you heard yesterday about President
Obama refusing to sign Eagle Scout Awards is true.
He won't sign life saving awards either.
Every President since 1912 has been the honorary
President of the Boy Scouts of America.
President Obama refused that honor.
Did you hear anything about the Boy Scouts 100th
Anniversary? Why did the press ignore it?
Let's see, they promote honor, integrity,
putting others first, love of country and of
course they believe in God.
Not much press coverage on this story, the first
president in 100 years to insult his finest
citizens, Eagle Scouts.

John Beaurguard, CEO of the South Texas
Council of the Boy Scouts of America joins us just
after 7AM.

David Haynie has two sons who have achieved the
rank of Eagle Scout.

Dave Hiser's son is working on his Eagle Scout
award now.

This is the E-mail Linda Thacker, sent to Glenn
Beck and I forwarded to Glenn's producer Adam.



Dear Mr. Beck,


On March 24, 2009 I had the honor of attending my
Grandson, David Osborne's Eagle Scout Court of
Honor. I imagine you have attended one of these
wonderful ceremonies. I also feel confident that
you are very knowlegable of what it means to have
earned the status of Eagle Scout. Our entire
family is so very excited and at the Court of
Honor we were all just beaming as our wonderful
young man was honored for his acheivements. After
the Court was closed David's leaders pulled him
aside and explained to him that they regretted to
have to explain to him, as sad as it is, that his
certificate was different from others they had
presented because his certificate did not have the
signature of the President of the United States ..
They explained that Obama does not support the Boy
Scouts of America and therefore does not sign the
Eagle Certificates. To date I believe there may
be as many as 10,000 of this countries finest
young men who do not have the signature of the
president of the country they have taken an oath
to respect and serve on thier Eagle Certificate.
To my knowledge Congress chartered BSA in 1916
part of which the President of the United States
is the Honorary President of The Boy Scouts of
America and President Obama is the first sitting
president to personally refuse to sign these
certicates. I believe if the country were to be
educated on national televison of what the Boy
Scouts of America stands for they would join those
of us who already know, and would be as outraged
as we are!


Also, your good friend Jim Lago was also in
attendance at this Eagle Court of Honor. I had
the priviIege of speaking with him this morning on
his radio talk show here in Corpus Christi and
shared with him this same information. He was
equally alarmed to say the least.


This information should ignite in every parent the
urgency to instill the great values held by the
Boy Scouts of America in their young men for the
cause of maintaining this great nation. We must
stand united. With appreciation, Linda Thacker,
grandmother to eleven of Americas finest future
citizens, David, Erikka, Adam, Ryan, Hailey, Tygh,
Mana, Gerritt, Maya, Ezra and Lynden Osborne.

So, that's the story thus far, calls have been
made, citizens are angry, especially the parents
of Eagle Scouts.
Wouldn't it be wonderful if ex-president Bush
announced, he would be willing to sign all Eagle
Scout Certificates for as long as President Obama
is in office?

We have a very small man in a very big office.
