Chart from...http://hotlineoncall.nationaljournal.com/archives/2010/03/sports_viewers.php

Just another example of heartlessness by the same demographic.

I didn't hear any booing in the Hockey PSA.
"GOP Debate Audience Members Boo Gay Soldier" sounded like all of two guys; hardly enough to condemn the entire republican party as homophobes.
I also applaud the effective use of the death penalty.
The final video is labeled "Tea Party Fanatics. . " I don't care to even watch it.
What was your point anyway? That liberals are caring, nurturing individuals and conservatives are mean, selfish cold blooded killers?

Oh yeah, enjoy the WNBA.

He just neglected to give a link to the story...

There's no need to recall the litany of criticisms aimed at Philadelphia sports fan; cheering injured players and snowballs at Santa have long passed the point of cliché.

The fact is that Philly fans will never get a break because of that perception. For example, if a few of them boo images of rival players on the arena scoreboard, and those players happen to be in a public service announcement about the fight against cancer, well then the Philly faithful must just be classless right?

Sigh.




Women's tennis!

Wow you must really be worried about the second term given recent polls and media criticism of our leadership. Maybe another speech in southern black reverand style will give those numbers a boost as apposed to articulate grammar speaker he uses when talking to the white upper class libs. Works for hillary and her husband.

Yea its going to get real interesting next year. How are the lefties going to explain it when all of us Southern white male tea party clansman rednecks vote for the "Actual" black candidate. Herman Cain. Oh thats right he is not worthy of being black like our half black dear leader is because he is not down with the struggle like Obama is.

Yea...sorry for my mistake. I saw the video and not the story behind it. That is why I asked "I wonder why?

The Boos were just a few "Rabid Fans" who probably missed the point of the ad.

I am just so sick of the hate and bile that is being championed lately.

Be nice!
I'll try too.

Hey Union Man, honest error.

That graph you showed on the attendance at sporting events is interesting though. Who'd a thunk that WWE and monster trucks skewed left as the left are often accused of being elitists? I'd also expect minorities to be underrepresented at these shows.

I go to the local college men's basketball games and gave no thought to the political leanings of the crowd although Fresburg leans right. I did go to one of the women's games and that crowd just did have the same "feel". I bet it would have polled just as the chart suggests. Again, interesting stats.

You ain't seen nothing yet. 0 has a clean crisp $1 billion dollar bill burning in his pocket to spew against his opponents. 2012 is going to get really ugly.

I'm convinced that all political spectrum "parties" have their own set of "durp durps" that give them a bad name. It only takes one bad apple to spoil a bushel... BUT that doesn't mean the entire bushel is rotten. : )

At least you were man enough to admit the mistake...let alone apologize for it. To that I say, thank you. A lesser man would not.

Philly fans ROCK! They booed the 3 Philly rivals in the ad. Show the same add with Chris Pronger at Chicago during a Hawk game and see what happens lol. Where is that darn puck anyways?

"GOP Debate Audience Members Boo Gay Soldier" sounded like all of two guys;

Yeah; it's OK if only two guys boo a US soldier who puts his life on the line to defend their freedoms. I guess it would be OK if only two guys burned a US flag at their National Convention, too.
I don't give a flying f*ck if he's straight, gay on even neutered; he is a member of our military and deserves respect for his Service. That is just plain wrong; and to dismiss it as only being a couple of guys is also wrong.

If you think 'health' care will be more compassionate under Obama, you are sadly delusional, and havent read the bill.
Un plugging grandma is just the beginning - ask yourself the hard question - WHY does a national health care cadre need to be ARMED and respondant only to the president? Why do you need to sign an asset forfeiture and disclosure form upon inpatient admit, in the advent of a lack of 'state approved and validated' advance care directive - what is the governments rule/roll in your care....

Go read it, its only 2600 pages.
I am betting you really love the EEOC compliance for health care delivery disparities and rationing - I hope you aint white.

(PS if you are not responsible to care of your own health - why is it my responsibility? I am so sick of 'for the good of all' always coming out of my pocket'

Crusty, what I am dismissing is that the actions of two dickheads in a crowd being an indictment of the entire group. I don't recall any conservatives spitting on returning vets and calling them baby killers.

Coast Guard member spit on near Occupy Boston tents
Updated: Friday, 14 Oct 2011, 8:53 AM EDT
Published : Thursday, 13 Oct 2011, 10:13 PM EDT


The Coast Guard in Boston confirmed that a woman in uniform was harassed and spat upon near Occupy Boston protesters.

The woman was walking to the train and said protesters spit on her twice, called her foul names and even threw a water bottle at her.

Now, the Coast Guard is warning all staff working on Atlantic Avenue to avoid those protesters while in uniform.

I wish I was there when someone spit on any member of the Military. I don't give a damn what their political orientation is.
Wrong is wrong.

I thought it was pretty obvious they were booing the question, not the soldier. I didn't like the question either but I liked the answer.
