A QUICK THOUGHT ON "BOY SCOUTS"

As I read the sad, infuriating, and disappointing news of yet another Republican leader who can't seem to keep his pants on, I remember with regret the odd way in which some Republican commentators and activists dismissed Governor Romney with vaguely denigrating words like "squeaky clean," "Boy Scout," or "nerdy." That's a rather silly way to describe a man who has lived a life of real integrity and raised a family that has consistently displayed the same kind of faithfulness. Perhaps now, as Republican after Republican immolates themselves on the pyre of their own selfishness and sin, the Governor can receive some long overdue respect for living his values.
