Happy 100th Anniversary, Boy Scouts!

Quite a milestone, isn't it? Not every day a venerable staple of society like the Boy Scouts turns 100.

So, seeing as Our President is the Honorary Chairman, he's going to show up and say a few words, right?

Wrong:

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.”

(emphasis mine)

Priorities!
