You guessed it! Rack another one up for the ACLU.

WASHINGTON - The Boy Scouts' Jamboree, held every four years, is an epic event for bucolic Caroline County, Va.

Held at Fort A.P. Hill for 25 years, the event more than triples the county's population, bringing 40,000 Scouts, leaders and staff together for 10 days of sports, conservation activities and the construction of a tent city so elaborate that military officials compare it to a refugee camp.

The jamboree is also an important event for the U.S. military, which has been supporting it since the 1930s with contractors, 1,500 troops and $2 million a year in Defense Department funding. However, that relationship is coming under scrutiny.

A federal judge ruled late last month that the Pentagon funding is unconstitutional because the Boy Scouts are a religious organization, requiring Scouts to affirm a belief in God. The case was initiated by the American Civil Liberties Union.
Can you image if "God" was replaced with "Allah"

Not only would the ACLU not touch it with a 10ft poll but Muslims would declare Jihad of fatwa against us.

Good job ACLU! That will certainly learn us. Honestly, how can these ****** sleep at night? BTW, anyone catch my Revel quote thread by chance? Just wondering...

The ACLU is a bunch of idiots, but somebody explain to me the reason we spend $2million a year for Boy Scouts to go camping together? :huh:
