Great job! The news people seemed to be trying to trip you up and you did a great job sticking up for the BSA. You did much better then I would have done.

Congrats. I wish I could catch the interviews however the Gov’t is pretty good at blocking all video sites.

Wow, thank guys. You’re too kind. I could have made my answers shorter, but I was trying to bulldoze my way through their efforts to shape my comments. I have a better idea how to handle myself if I ever get another chance to do a live interview. I need to be more lively for one. Shorter answers. I was afraid of them trying to distort my position so I was a little defensive, but I think I could be more relaxed in the future. If this is the cap to my blogging career then I don’t think I did badly so I’m content.

Outstanding!! You did an excellent job of making your point clearly and quickly (given the short window of time). No small feat to appear on two cable news shows, generally on opposite ends of the political spectrum, and make a great showing on both! You represented BSA leaders very well!

Great job!

Watching and listening to the interviews you have done, I am impressed how well and eloquently you put across your points. I think the news people were surprised that you agree with the policy!
It will be interesting to watch how this policy pans out within the BSA and to see if it crosses the Atlantic to the UK.

All the best

Nick
