Obama Ignores Boy Scouts 100th Anniversary, Will Appear On ABC TV’s ‘The View’

President Barack Obama, the honorary chairman of the Boy Scouts of America, will not speak in-person before the group on Wednesday at Fort A.P. Hill in Virginia, as part of the organization’s 100th anniversary celebration. However, the president is sending a videotaped message to the scouts for Wednesday, the same day he will be in Manhattan to tape an appearance for ABC TV’s talk show “The View.”

 Obama Ignores Boy Scouts 100th Anniversary, Will Appear on ABC TV’s ‘The View’

Bob Dries, chairman of national news and media at the Boy Scouts of America Jamboree – a gathering that happens every four years and attracts thousands of scouts from around the world – told CNSNews.com that the organization was told on Monday that the president had scheduling conflicts and would not be speaking in-person at the week-long event.

The BSA had scheduled its Wednesday arena program to include remarks by the president at 11 a.m. in front of the more than 45,000 scouts who will be in attendance.

The White House did not confirm to CNSNews.com that the president would not speak live at the Jamboree on Wednesday, but reporters were sent an e-mail at 1:45 p.m. on Monday announcing that the president will be in New Jersey on Wednesday afternoon to talk about the economy before he travels on to New York City to film his appearance for “The View’s” Thursday edition.

    Did we really expect any more from this man?

  2. donkelly says:

    He missed a great opportunity to further contaminate our youth. To further his agenda, he could at least have sent his education CZAR, you know whom I mean, and where the viewpoint came from.

  3. James says:

    I bet he will attend any celebration the Hammas or any other enemy of the country throw. He is truly the scum of the earth. can't wait for 2012

  4. It's just as well. I would hate to see any boy scout subjected to his arrogance and lies. I'll bet he would attend a Muslim "Beat Your Wife Day" celebration.

  5. Rip says:

    There is No excuse, With the Helicopter that WE provide him it isn't that far from VA. to N.J. and His talk about the economy is in New Jersey on Wednesday afternoon. The BSA Event would have Him there at 11:am…………….. But IN all Fairness I have to Agree, that It would be Far better to keep this traitorous usurper piece of garbage away from our youth Use the 11:am time slot to remind the boys that the constitution needs their help !

  6. thomas says:

    This empty suit has his priorities all screwed up. He will do whatever gets him the most attention. We really must clean out the White House of these black anti-Americans.

  7. Mike Kauppi says:

    It's obvious where this Socialist's President's priorities are. That's fine….The Boy Scouts of America don't need to be subjected to another propaganda campaign speech by this ill-equipped, unqualified President. They know what he's all about, and the American people are learning rapidly, which is why his poll numbers continue to drop precipitously. His power will drop dramatically after November of this year when many complicit Democrats are thrown out of Congress, and Obama will be gone after 2012. In the meantime, pray for survival of this country.

  8. THOMAS STEWART says:

    The Manchurian Pres Obama Only Learned How To Salute 19 Months Ago, So The Boy Scouts Will Not Learn Anything From This Chi-Town Mafia Politics Spinner Liar, So Thanks For Not Talking With Real American Boy Scouts, Yippee, So Back To Your Frauds And Tax Cheats Trying To Bankrupt The USA, The Paperless Pres Obamacare Has Spoken.

  9. ron says:

    Boyscouts arn't voters -YET- he really does not care about our youth (and christian) –we can only hope and pray that those who do vote will remember in November –and vote out all these anit-christian amoral dingbats out of office and replace them with people who will put the country first —

  10. HOT COUGAR says:

    If this were a Obam Youth Group meeting you could bet your ass that he would attend.

  11. victorbarney says:

    My fellow Americans, we must understand that The Boy Scouts is an American "thing" and not well understood by forbidden foreigners(Deut. 17:15) or those with a heavy Marxist(anti-messiah) background, or is it Islamic and born where? I don't know, but I'm sure that he must of passed the background check to become President, right? Maybe America does do that anymore, do they?

    • HOT COUGAR says:

      Victor,
      Obviously not !
      Obama is living proof !

    • RacerJim says:

      Unfortunately, there is no requirement to pass an FBI background investigation (for national security clearance) to become POTUS. Even more unfortunately, although there is a requirement to be a "natural born citizen" to become POTUS everyone with a fiduciary duty to ensure that Obama met that requirement was derelict in that duty.

      • victorbarney says:

        RacerJim; I'm not sure if this is irony or what "we the people" deserve because I know that in '67-'68 when I was trained to put handle Nuclear Bombs and etc, I needed a Top-Secret Clearance to do it, when apparently my Commander and Chief didn't need one! In fact, I understand that it was the Clinton administration that opened the door to people in the 60's that could not get a clearance then, but he approved it! In fact, I just heard that he also had pardoned the co-head guys wife of the Chicago Weatherman movement for killing a cop. It looks to me that "we the people"are the dopes! I better shut up because I now hear that our Commander-In-Chief put in an executive order to murder us if he felt like it! Duh! I'm glad that I answer to a higher authority because it isn't going to help us in America, otherwise(I don't even want to go into the "us", but it sounds as though that you're one too)!

        • HOT COUGAR says:

          VICTOR,
          SIMPLE !
          OUR NATION IS UNDER ATTACK FROM WITHIN.

          • victorbarney says:

            Almost! From within and from without! This again is the Chicago Weatherman Manifesto to take over America! It was written in June, 1969, I believe. It's plan is to elect as Black President, have a economic collapse, make him dictator and he declares a holocaust on the white "men," not women, who actually voted him in office! Africa, which makes up 70% of nations in the UN now have American veto power to rule us through the same UN! Again, America is "Israel" by the seed of Joseph(Gen. 48:16), not Judah, who was never given the name Israel because it was given to Joseph's seed! PS: It was Clinton by the way to pardoned the wife of William Ayers, who had murdered a cop! Yes, Ayers and company started out all as murderers and now rule the white(irony, I'm positive) house and unless those days be shortened, I know no white man flesh well be saved! But, those days will be shortened for the elect's sake. Watch!

      • HOT COUGAR says:

        RACER JIM,
        WELL STATED !

  12. Walt Tessier says:

    Having grown up in scouting, I can certainly understand why he would not appear before the honorable BSA organizations celebration of 100 years help young boys and teenage boys grow into responsible, ethical young men. This individual that currently acts as a place holder for the President of the United States of America espouses all things dispicable to this nation and supports all things that would degrade our nation and our culture. I certainly would not recommend him as a role model for any of our young scouts, they are being taught honor, duty, responsibility, accountability and ethics, attributes for which this man is devoid of. This is certainly a sad period for our country and the God fearing citizens that call it home.

  13. Linda says:

    Because he's a showman…you must all know that by now….AND he fears the Boyscouts might upstage him……..DUHHHHHHHHHHHH

    • HOT COUGAR says:

      Linda,
      I think it is has more to do with Obama's core beliefs of what is truly good in our country and not.
      Simply put ! He is a Jerk !

  14. Carol says:

    Of course this muslim communist choose the View because those idiots are his equal which are low life worthless b-s-a-ds. The SOB is not fit to be around children!!. Thomas Stewart this low life still has not learned to salute correctly. Watch that arrogant sob when he gets off the helicopter on the white house lawn and by the way I want to puke when I see that military man saluting that piece of crap!!

  15. Bob1943 says:

    Anyone who has been, and hopefully still is, active in doing various things, e-mails, letters, posting at various websites, asking Congressional candidates at meetings etc., concerning Obama's obvious ineligibility to be president, please try to double what you are currently doing. This is the (only) issue to rid ourselves of this imposter, usurper of the presidency and his enablers, in time to save our nation..

    Please do not be intimidated or silenced in any way. Fox News has given up to the regime, it's up to us to continue to expose the truth.

    Please watch this new video, the "crazy" Reverend James Manning gets it exactly right, especially his description of Fox News and people like Hannity, Beck, O'Reilly and other so-called "conservatives" who, for whatever reason, are aiding and abeting the usurper and his minions:

  16. A_pen says:

    The BSA is an affront to Obama. He would be unmasked by every eleven year old learning the pledge, On My honor I will do my best to do my duty to God and my country…… and all those pesky values they aspire to, Trustworthy, Loyal, Helpful, Friendly, Courteous, Kind, Obedient, Cheeful, Thrifty, Brave, Clean and Reverent.

    Let's not even get into the fact Obummer can't make the BSA a perverts hunting ground like the GSA is. Oh, I almost forgot why he was not allowed to speak is because he wanted to hand out condoms before he told them how he would screw them.

    • HOT COUGAR says:

      LOL! A-Pen,
      You are on a roll today !
      Keep it up !

      • A_pen says:

        I am every day I just had a fresh cup of coffee . I am especially offended by this man Obama as I was and always will be a "scout" and his behavior falls far short of anything a true man can be respected for. We are all gifted in different ways and we should all strive to be the best human possible not the slickest trickster or conartist or any other lesser profession simply because we are well suited for the role. When we lose the desire to reach lofty goals there is no reason to not reach the lowest ones. These progressives have sought to lower their subjects simply to stand above them. They truly are despicable beings. BTW, TY for following along. I get the feeling from reading your posts the name you've chosen is a play on words not the physical brand.

  17. RSanDiego says:

    Consider it a blessing!

  18. cheryll says:

    This idiot is in the wrong profession, he should be a stand up comic. Oh, he's too lazy to stand up, he should be a sit down comic. Impeach obama, fire congress in November.

  19. Scott Mary says:

    You were expecting What? from a Chicago street hood?

  20. tallon2 says:

    The best thing the Boy Scouts could do is send their video-tape back to the White House cut into about 46,000 pieces and tell them since this was the amount [$46,000] that each of the scouts owed the government, they could use that for their debt. Take away his honorary chairmanship because there is nothing about him that is honest. He want's to be a damn movie star on tv instead of a leader of our great[at least it once was] country. THE BOY SCOUT LEADERS SHOULD DEFINITELY NOT SHOW THEM THE VIDEOTAPE!!!!!!!!! Go dowm and get a clown–that would be better than this baboon.

    • HOT COUGAR says:

      Tallon 2,
      You forgot to add Gay to the Baboon.

    • KimB says:

      While I TOTALLY agree with you. I doubt the scouts will do that. No matter who the president is they will totally respect the office and I doubt we will hear one negative thing from the BSA leaders. my 3 boys are boy scouts and plan on sticking it out to the highest rank of Eagle & to them the 100 year anniversary is a big deal and this Jamboree in Washington only comes around every 4 years. I I feel sorry for the scouts in our troop that are there and were excited about seeing Obama speak. Obama missed his opportunity! He only wants to PLAY president not BE president.

  21. Richard Hays says:

    Obama is a self centered Chicago Thug. It is good that he is not talking to our Youth. The BSA is a principled and christian based organization and parents respect that. Obama does not!

    Look at the Record.

    2011 is just around the corner. Lets clean house and vote for candidates that believe in the Constitution and will fight to preserve it.

  22. Hawk says:

    impeach him NOW..

    • HOT COUGAR says:

      Hawk,
      I would much rather see him removed from office for not being a Naturlized citizen. Then he and all his accomplices who colaborated with him in this cover up could be imprisioned and tried for their crimes.

      • RacerJim says:

        Exactly! Getting him legally declared ineligible to serve as POTUS would, first and foremost, automatically render everything he has done as POTUS null and void. It would also mean indicting everyone who had a fiduciary duty to ensure he was eligible to serve as POTUS prior to Innauguration Day for "Dereliction of Duty"….the DNC Chairman, the Speaker of the House, the Senate Majority Leader, every State's Secretary of State/Board of Elections Chairman, every Electoral College member and the Chief Justice of SCOTUS.

  23. gypsy639 says:

    Calling Obungler scum gives scum a whole new definition. Obungler is so disgustingly corrupt and slimy, the Boy Scouts should consider themselves fortunate they were not corrupted by garbage.

  24. LookForTruth says:

    B(ad) .Odor is not worthy to speak to our honorable Boy Scouts. B.Odor has nothing good or worthwhile to offer to these dear young men, so it is best he's flitting off elsewhere.

  25. Steve Dolyniuk says:

    Obama doesn't give a shit about the United States let alone the Boy Scouts. As I have said before, he is the most Anti-American asshole in the Presidents office EVER. And to make matters worse, why do the Republicans , force him to disclose his Birth Certificate & all of his records??? Vote out ALL of the incumbants.

    • Bob1943 says:

      The Republicans are now officially a part of the cover-up of the biggest fraud in the history of the world. They may be afraid to speak out, but being a coward is a sorry excuse for sitting back and watching the destruction of America to save their own worthless political hides from maybe being called a nasty name.

    • HOT COUGAR says:

      Steve Dolyniul ,
      I do agree with all that you have said except the Asshole part. I am sure you meant to say Gay Asshole?

  26. Roy says:

    The BSA should not view the recorded message of the Traitor-in-Chief. Why should they? I know everyone tries to be polite and continues to recognize tradition and common courtesies but this illegal alien and public enemy no. 1 does not deserve the recognition or the air-time. The BSA do not deserve to be submitted to the arrogant posturing and lies of the great pretender.

  27. alli says:

    Firstly I am shocked the Boy Scouts of America made him Honorary chair. Why. this man no more would be interested in anything unless he makes money. Has no interest in the country due to his religion which we are all aware is not Christian plus why should these young men listen to an idiot.The only people who voted for him are idiots and that includes many I thought to be intelligent. DO NOT JUDGE A MAN BY HIS COVER AS MANY IN COUNTRY FOOLED BY HIS FACADE.

    • HOT COUGAR says:

      Alli ,
      Well stated !
      We do not need a Gay Man speaking to the Boy scouts of America.

    i wish people would quite calling this muslin s.o.b. obama. obungle would fit him better. look bungle up in the dictionary it, fits him to a T .

    If this was a jahadist youth group old Blue Lips would be there to bow to their leaders and tell them how they can help by becoming suicide bombers and make their own bombs.Lets face Big Ears looks for attention and the scouts can't satisfy his craving for attention

  30. jim says:

    Just goes to show you how he can give 2 sh_ts about an American organization that furthers our constitution and American beliefs. He considers the boy scouts 100th anniversary much lower in importance than his campaigning on "the view". Just like he can give a rats ass on the D-day anniversary. This guy is a pure scum bag if there ever was one. To you mr president– BOOOOOOOOOOOO. You don't deserve to hold the office, you contaminate it. scumbag!!!

  31. Jim says:

    I wonder what our wonderful Senators and Representatives in Illinois think about BO not attending and not giving a rats ass about the nations boy scouts. The original helping organization. And Obama said during the campaign to give to your community . What a bullshitter and liar.

    I am a 72 year old grandmother who wants to thank everyone for their comments regarding Hussein Obama. We can't give up friends, impeachment is just around the corner. It makes me sad to know this person represents my country in the world arena. He's such an SOB – how can he look at himself in the mirror every morning?

    • HOT COUGAR says:

      He has no conscious ! Ethics or Morals.
      As well just in case you did not know ?
      Obama is most likely our first Gay President ever !
      According to Larry Sinclair .Org……
      Google it if you do not believe me.

  34. joseph k says:

    Is it true that Emperor Obama will not sign the Eagle Scout certificates? How do you pick up a turd by the clean end?

    • kimb says:

      My boys are in scouts and the 4 boys that made Eagle this year did NOT get a letter from the President only the Vice President!! I thought traditionally they always got a letter from the President. That is one thing my boys say that they look forward to is getting a letter from the POTUS! luckily they are only Tenderfoot right now and it will be a few years before they get there and perhaps someone else will be our commander in chief!

  35. HOT COUGAR says:

    Joseph ,
    I have no idea as to whether or not Gay Obam Boy refused to sign The Eagle Scout Certificates.
    But you are correct in that Gay Obama Boy is in fact a piece of shit.

    It all makes sense now as to why they support Obama with such a passion.
    LOL ! He is one of them !

  40. guest says:

    I love this site. The bulk, I'd say 98% of comments here are of one collective mind. God and Country.
    Of course the False-Prophet-in-Chief won't go to the Boy Scouts Jamboree. They carry way too many American Flags there!!

    HURRAH FOR THE BOY SCOUTS OF AMERICA!!!

  41. This fiasco is getting worse by the minute. EVERYTHING HE DOES IS BASS ACKWARDS!

  42. Homer says:

    Let me tell you something, this is a blessing to the Boy scouts of America. I'd rather have a blank certificate than have the usurper's name on any certificate that I earned! This man is in an office that he did not honestly earn. he was appointed by the powers that be! I'd be asg=hamed of a man who holds his crotch when it comes to saluting the flag! No keep that phony signature! I'll have someone w/some respect sign it!

  43. William L. Sasman says:

    Why turn down a visit to woopie for some scouts? Our present leader cares nothing for americans. The chance to get on the view makes him think that he can spread more of his crap better. Anyway the view will be reached by air force one so he rather spend big on a no sense trip as many of his others. The boy scouts really don't need his face or lies anyway.

  44. PrivateCitizen101 says:

    Please, don't show the tape to the boy's. We all know it will be Oblame-o explaining why he couldn't be there. Then, he will just take the opportunity to talk about himself for the remainder of the tape. Don't put the Boy Scout's through THAT!

  45. Jimmy says:

    Is this the person you want arround your little boys???
    http://beforeitsnews.com/story/51/828/Washington_

    You might consider the real president McCain or even Palin they are actually citizens, or perhaps Chuck Norris an actualy man.

  46. kimb says:

    Does this surprise anyone? He's a total narcissist!!! Anyone who writes a biography before he does anything and thinks people might be interested is totally delusional! He become POTUS without doing anything and Then… he gets the Nobel Peace Prize, AGAIN before he does anything! Apparently he gets the perception that he shouldn't have to do anything and we will just elect him AGAIN. This 100 year anniversary is a BIG deal and for Obama to totally DIS the boys scouts is just another slap in the face to the American people and the future of our country. You know those boys that went (some from my boys' troop) were so excited to actually get to see him speak in person! What an honor it would have been for some of those kids. I hope America elects a President that actually likes his country next time!

  47. NeverAgain says:

    I admit I do not approve of Obama, but my brother is a VERY active boy scout patrol leader and he was unable to attend the Jamboree, but some other boys from his troop did. Personally, even if I prefer MANY others to be in the seat of power in our nation, I would have liked him to have had the experience of listening and then deciding for himself reffering to a direct speech from the President. It would have been good for the boys to discusstogether and would have actually made them more mature. It also would have been a good display of encouragement to them boys, even if all he said was "woohoo Boy Scouts, keep it up!" That would probably be the sum of what was said on the video anyways. I know not many others will agree, but he SHOULD HAVE spoken to the boys.

Speak Your Mind
