First of all, to prevent the flamings, I should say that I am a strong conservative, and my number one issue is the life issue and so I am not at all a supporter of the Clintons etc.
That being said, I thought it the height of rudeness for these firemen and policemen to boo and yell at the Senator this weekend. It lacked dignity and class. I thought we conservatives were supposed to stand for such things, or perhaps this is just what we say, but do not practice.
I wonder what Burke et al would have said about this conservative embrace of very questionable manners.
The policemen and firemen should have just done nothing when she appeared on stage, no clapping, no booing, the silence would have expressed the same thing, but in a much more dignified way.
What choice does she have?
And just maybe some of those police officers and firemen remember HER supporters spitting on them during one of her infrequent and handpicked campaign stops.
They might also remember she declared the police officers in NYC who were later ACQUITTED guilty.
Or they might remember that she AND her husband freed OTHER terrorists!
This is a war between right and wrong make no mistake about that. The left has to be exposed for what they are, i,e; Anti-American, Anti-Freedom, Anti- Individualism.
Wake up and start booing the bitches both male and female!
Then we can go back to being gentlemen and gentlewomen WITH gentlemen and gentlewomen.
I am a recent graduate of Claremont McKenna College in Claremont, California, where I studied Classics and PPE (Philosophy, Politics, and Economics). This year I am a Thomas J. Watson Fellow studying Catholic and Islamic culture in Europe, North Africa, and the Middle East.
I am a traditionalist Catholic who believes that Masses should be in Latin, Interleague Baseball games abolished, and that Evelyn Arthur St.John Waugh is the greatest writer of the century. I also support the idea that while style is not everything, it is indeed something!

Scum do not deserve respect.
Heres your man
They might also remember she declared the police officers in NYC who were later ACQUITTED guilty.
Or they might remember that she AND her husband freed OTHER terrorists!
I know, I know. I guess that "love your enemies...do good to them who spitefully use you.." (something like that) makes me soft sometimes. I think that doesn't mean "be a doormat" which she would gleefully make out of her every political foe.
I can admit when I am wrong. (I just don't need to very often, lol)
And I know we are suppose to be better than they are, and we hate it when they do it to us, but I swear, it just made my dang day when they booed her because it proved what we here at FR have said all along: her audiences and her interviews are handpicked and she is NEVER around the great unwashed masses that could/would ask her questions about every "scandal" she has been involved in.
At last, she was in a situation she could not control -- and see what she got -- DISAPPROVAL.
I loved it! They humiliated US for eight years; their turn! Think of it this way: he SHOULD have been removed from office, but since he wasn't, public humiliation and exposure works for me!
She needs to know what people think of her.
major laughing occurring here! :):)
No problem, been there, done that. I keep hoping that I am post menopausal, then I would have a reason why I am so lame brained and a B!T@H at times. hehehe
