He also won’t sign life saving certificates, and is  the first president since the boy scouts were formed to not do  this. In  God We Trust   Some minds  are like concrete thoroughly mixed up and permanently set   BOY SCOUTS   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  either, the first president in 100 years to  insult his finest citizens, Eagle Scouts.  John Beauregard, 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 knowledgeable 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  achievements. 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 countrys  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 their 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 certificates.  I believe if the country were to be  educated on national television 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 privilege 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.........THAT DOES NOT KNOW THE MEANING OF "HONOR"!   Don't you think it's time to get rid of  this Un-American Muslim Traitor and get a real American back to running our  country, like what we grew up with. Because I have had  enough. If you feel like I do please  pass this on. There's a lot of present and former scouts, black, white, and all colors, votes lost. Nice; real nice! </blockquote>
