Keepin it classy:
TUCSON (NY Times) -- When President Obama took the stage here Wednesday to address a community and a nation traumatized by Saturdays killings, it invited comparisons to President George W. Bushs speech to the nation after the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001,...
Even as it began, some conservative commentators were posting comments criticizing the memorial service for being overly partisan and more like a pep rally, and there were some boos in the hall when Gov. Jan Brewer, a Republican, spoke. Those reactions would have been hard to imagine, say, in the days after the Oklahoma City bombing....
They are Ne Kulturna! Without culture and totally uncouth.
Just when I thought the service couldn’t get any classier after those “Together We Thrive” tee shirts............
it will finally become known that the obamites controlled access to the “memorial rock concert”, and that only idolaters were admitted.
Did Giffords die? If not, why a memorial?

Exactly. This is disappointing to hear, though. I purposely turned up the volume on the TV last night to hear if there were any boos when Gov. Brewer was announced. I couldn't hear any, but I saw some of the VIPs looking up at a certain section of the crowd as Gov. Brewer walked up to the podium.
Some images from last night's pep rally, I mean "memorial service":

Now I can't say for sure that these t-shirts were from "Obama's campaign" as has been reported in some places, but just WHAT is the purpose of providing t-shirts to attendees at a solemn memorial service??
Disgusting that the SOB who sued her and the State should dare to set foot in it.
Especially to take advantage of something as sickening as this.
OMG! That last picture looks like a bunch of zombies! Seriously!
I don’t know if the families of the victims were in attendance, but had my family been involved, I wouldn’t have participated.
Especially not with the marxist in chief on-site.
And the Marxist thugs, oops I meant "Progressives," are denouncing Bohner for not showing up to get boos and harassment.
Did you expect liberals, Democrats and followers of Obama to have any class and decorum?
Notice Holder was seated right next to Gov. Brewer. I wonder... who actually planned last night's "memorial service"?
The leftists booed the republican governor at a memorial for a little girl, and we are listening to bullcrap about Obama as a uniter, and together we thrive?
Common sense, please.
Who the hell paid for these t-shirts?
Organizing for America.

Don’t you see only democrats are wonderful “public servants” whereas republicans in office are stupid racist trouble makers? The unity and tolerance are only for the left.
Also want to repeat the college president was a pompous ass kisser, going on about how wonderful and important the (democrat) speakers were.
