Gimme a break. Exactly how many "republican/conservative/libertarian" folks does he really expect were in the audience at the friggin' VMAs?
1-800-888-WAAH
i doubt that you would have found too many republican bush-supporters in the crowd, those people were more likely liberal democrats than conservatives, so please don't tar us with the brush you mean to use on them.
Oh shut up.
I don't think they were being booed by Republicans.
I also would question the author's presumption to say anything on behalf of the entire political right.
glad to see YOU haven't gone soft ; )
You don't speak for me, pal.
Are others not allowed to show their distaste for the Kerry girls(?) public support of their father?
Oh, wait...tolerance only goes one way.
By the way tomas...you're name is missing an H
Now why does he assume anyone who booed MUST be a conservative? Conservatives generally don't hang out at the MTV music awards.
*snort*
They were bein' booed by the musicians and their guests.
Very few Repblicans among musicians at the VMA's.
So, in essence, they were being booed by their own party.
Surely you jest. You don't really think that the people in the crowd doing the booing were members of the political right, do you? Please. As if MTV music video awards shows are havens for the VRWC. Get real. The crowd was made up of a bunch of alienated young people. I doubt that many of them will vote for W. They just don't like adults or authority in general. They would have booed pretty much anyone.
For that matter, their booing might have been a leftist criticism of Kerry for being too pro-war. The notion that this was a bunch of country club/junior leaguer 'rightwingers' is downright silly.
Thankee. :) And out of respect for xsmommy, I am taking ever bit of willpower I have to avoid making an obvious naughty joke. ;)
I don't. But Mike Ditka does.
Tomas B Phillips, Philly's biggest Girly-Man!
Oh, but this is wrong. According to CNN it was because the audience saw pictures of the Bush twins they were booing, or maybe they didn't boo at all. At least that's what the (doctored) re-run of the show appeared to show.
Mr Philips is off message. /sarcasm
They weren't booing because it was political. They thought the older Kerry daughter was going to show her boobs like she did at Cannes, and they were screaming "NOOOOOOOO!!!!"

And To Alexandra and Vanessa Kerry, I say, "BOOOOOOOO! BOOOOOOOOO! BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!"
THAT is bad...
