Once in a while The Editor goes through a period where he mostly makes sense, sometimes for up to almost a month. But then he does something that reminds me how ideologically buffoonish is his world view. This is one if those times.

He started this thread, wherein he posted Obama’s video message to the Scouts on their 100th anniversary. In the video Obama has nothing but praises for the Scouts and tells them that they are America’s future leaders. Watch for yourself:

Something in that two minutes of unadulterated praise sets The Editor off, because he laments that Obama thinks the Boy Scouts are like the “Cuban Red Scarves.” I guess it’s my lack of age, but I don’t even know what those are. I’m guessing it’s an evil Communist parallel version of the Boy Scouts, but instead of earning merit badges they kill puppies. Oh, and they all have goatees because they are EVIL.

Look, I’ll admit it wasn’t the most exciting speech in the world. But really, is there anything to complain about? How was it un-American in any way? Can’t the AMG universe refrain from complaining about Obama even when he says very nice things about a favored organization? I swear, if Obama went to the Editor’s house and mowed his lawn and then cooked him a BBQ, we would hear the next day how the smell of cut grass interfered with the flavor of the chicken.

There is nothing they won’t complain about.
