6. I think msnbc.com did something to cover the booing. I didn't hear it.
:(

Good to know it happened though. I'm sure YouTube will provide later today. :)

7. Time and place. Time and place.
It's inappropriate. I think BHO would agree with me.

FWIW. Not all Americans agree with us about him being a war criminal, regardless of whether or not they are ardent supporters.

10. That was the time. And it was the place
He's goddammed lucky he didn't get 3 million pairs of shoes thrown at him.

12. No. It's Barack's day. It's not a day to overshadow
the joy we feel at Barack's taking office with our feelings about Bush. Silence would have been more appropriate than booing.

11. I beg to differ and I am very confident
some families who love ones have died because of this proven war criminal would agree

13. The "people" are simply voicing an opinion
What's wrong with that??

14. Nothing. Except that it's all people will be talking about.
And, silence would have spoken much louder and not been met with disdain.

Time and place. This isn't a hockey game.

15. I don't disagree with you...
But this is a democracy where people are free to voice their opinions. And the people have spoken loudly. I'm glad Bush finally heard it from "WE THE PEOPLE", how despised he is. He certainly was shielded from it during his Administration (God, how great it is to say that!!), and I hope that he was stung, embarrassed and hurt by it. He certainly deserved it.

16. I think Bush heard from WE THE PEOPLE loud and clear on November 4.
Not to mention his 'approval' or disapproval ratings.

I am of the mind that certain ceremonies demand a certain amount of decorum. And, in all honesty, I don't think he gives a rat's ass. He already knows what everyone short of the 17% ers think of him.

He deserves to be charged with war crimes, IMHO. I don't think a handful of people booing him at Barack's inaugural ceremony did anything except look petty.

17. It did look petty. I don't disagree with you there
But it was certainly petty for Bush's Administration to not let protesters protest except in small staging areas far from the media and out of his sight during his Inaugurations.

20. Agreed. I just like to think of 'us' as better than 'them'.

24. I completely agree there. Just think people were venting a little frustration at the past 8 years.
It certainly wasn't dignified though. Crickets and silence would have spoken far louder.

36. 2 million shoes would have been nice. I like Lincoln's thoughts on
tarring and feathering: If it wasn't for the feathers I would forgo the honor. :-D

39. Nice quote

I suppose it's easy for those who haven't seen their lives go to shit under this administration to judge everybody else.

But he deserves a boo and a shoe for everyone lost in the WTC, every soldier killed in his bloody wars and every wounded vet not getting the treatment he or she needs. Just for starters...

So there!

I'll settle for a donkey kick :kick:

26. How do you get 2 million people to remain silent?
The booing was a reflex and had I been there I would have joined in.

29. I was at a public forum and gave him the finger and told him he better hide because
we we're going to send him to the Hague. Got a round of applause.

turned away from the TV, gave him my farewell.

33. Damn. Was this during his introduction?
PBS offered no crowd shot and the audio seemed lower when El Turderino slid into sight.
