If I have a son someday, remind me to tell him how much he does not want to join Boy Scouts. From Harper’s weekly review:

The Boy Scout National Jamboree was held at Fort A.P. Hill, Virginia. The Senate passed the Support Our Scouts Act of 2005, guaranteeing the Boy Scouts the right to use federal land whether the organization discriminates against atheists and gays or not. The Senate also noted that holding the Jamboree on a military base gave U.S. soldiers the opportunity to practice the “preparation, logistics, and leadership” needed in combat.

Check out this creepy photo of Bush speaking at the Jamboree with a giant ARMY balloon in the background. Pretty blatant. And just how offensive is that balloon with the head of a Native American chief? Ugh.
