Boos for first lady Michelle Obama were heard amid the roar of engines before the start of the Ford 400 at Homestead-Miami Speedway.
The boos could be heard as Obama and Jill Biden, wife of Vice President Joe Biden, were saying, "Gentlemen, start your engines" to begin the race Sunday, the South Florida Sun Sentinel in Fort Lauderdale reported.
Obama and Biden, grand marshals for the race, were invited to NASCAR's final event of the season to bring awareness to their Joining Forces initiative, which supports military families.
The women had addressed the drivers at a meeting before presiding over the ceremonial starting of the engines.
"I know this is a big day for all of you so we're not going to take up your time because you need to be focused," Obama told the drivers. "We just wanted to stop by and say thank you. NASCAR has just been amazing in terms of its support not just today, but every day, of military families."

Used story title.
Stand up and turn your back.
A stony silence is worse than a boo. Moochelle went there to get a specific photo-op, and she got exactly what she wanted.
We will see more and more of Mooch in the coming year. Polls show she is more popular than Bark and they will use her for what ever they can get.

...and if bad men do nothing, then good triumphs!
Tractor trailer or wide load racing?
George Lucas threatened copyright litigation.
My thoughts exactly.
What is it? When the flak gets heaviest, you are over the target....would have been disappointed in my NASCAR friends with any other response...
They knoo the Moo would get the BOOOOOO.
And that’s a BOOOO for the BOOOOs at George W. BOOOOush at O’BOOOmmer’s initiation!
they were yelling boo and moo to the commie foo.
Exactly...using our brave troopers as tools...disgusting!
IBTL!
I booed her and I was 1000 miles away listening on the radio!
I wish she’d be booed every time she shows her white hating self.
“This is all just way too noisy. Jill and I think next year everyone will be driving Chevy Volts.”
Boooooooooo!
And continuing disrespect for the Flag and the blood of righteous heros who bought it...despicable people!
