I'm just not hearing all that much booing.

I watched this last night on C and L, and was not satisfied with the amount of booing. I think its a prime example of American apathy. I would have booed the shit out of that asshole! Fuck em!

We need to impeach him, and send him to GITMO to experience waterboarding 24/7 until 2009 rolls along.

Some people still like the guy (not me) and it's more than you think. I mean, either that or the crowd wasn't that drunk yet.

I hate to be the one to say it, but that motherfucker has a pretty decent throwing arm for a 60-year-old (or whatever he is now).

They weren't booing, they were yelling "Buuuuush!"

some boos. not nearly enough. DC sucks.

and the DB announcer just blithely soldiering on, protecting his job, being a "professional", tossing out meaningless compliments about asshole's throwing arm. who the fuck cares.

There just aren't that many boos. Interesting how they bring up 9/11 at the end of the clip on ABC-owned ESPN. ABC, the network that brought you the docu-drama completely re-writing the events that led up to 9/11 (Clinton was responsible) on the fifth anniversary of 9/11. I don't know if anyone noticed but there was a feature on GMA Friday on whether being gay was nature or nuture.

There are still a lot of people who have respect for the office and won't insult the officeholder to his face.

The Washington Post is reporting (in a couple of columns) about Bush being booed by a majority of the people in the stands.

I think it's harder to hear the ultra-rich in the skyboxes ...

ESPN did everything they could to block it out, like what WWE does when the crowd boos a wrestler they're supposed to cheer. But the booing was clear and evident watching on the tube.

Are they saying Boo, or Boo-urns?

I swear I see a flicker of self doubt at 0:57. Priceless.
