I can't watch. I hate booing, but then some people do deserve it more than others.

I'm with you, Margo. Can't stand the guy, but it doesn't take too much courage or personal integrity to boo when part of a large crowd. I hate when it happens to anyone... one of the things I hated about Fenway is when people would boo Buckner as a Yankee.

Considering that Americans tend to be relatively well-behaved in terms of not booing people -- especially the president -- I think that's pretty significant.
Besides, the way the administration is going, pretty soon the only way you can safely express your opinion is going to be as part of a crowd. |

Every person on the planet could boo Bush and Co. and the administration's response would be dismissive: "So?" |

And David Broder would write a column on how it was bad for the Democrats. |
