Michelle Obama and Dr. Jill Biden were the grand marshalls of the last race of the NASCAR season yesterday at Homestead Speedway in Miami and in a super appropriate move, a significant amount of the audience booed. However, they were with a veteran and his family as part of an initiative called Joining Forces which aims to support military families, so I guess maybe it’s possible some NASCAR fans were booing veterans. Hard to tell sometimes.
However, guess who thinks booing spouses of politicians and veterans is acceptable behavior?

Ha! Good, she deserves a hot dog upside the head also.
OMG…the incredible lack of class and rude, boorish behavior is ridiculous. What is WRONG with people these days? And we wonder why kids act like they do. Look who they have for role models.
LOL, if anyone was dumb enough to think they were booing the Vet, then they are as dilusional as this pathetic attempt at mud-slinging journalism.
Good to know they took time out from intimate relations with their relatives to boo the First Lady.
You are right Sue, role models like Michelle Obama are absolutely terrible! LOL

You are a Failboat. Go occupy a writing workshop or something.
@Derek: Failboat? I don’t even like the water all that much.
Oh, I get it. Sail rhymes with fail, and “fail” is what people say now when they’re out of ideas or clever insults. I see what you did there.
Only IGNORANT people would boo our First Lady. Jon Justice is exactly who I thought he was…lost ALL respect, not that I had much. Time to be more respectful and civil in this country, it’s really not that hard…I do it daily…
“…lost ALL respect, not that I had much…”
“…Time to be more respectful…”
“…I do it daily…”
umm, ok…
Is it really all that surprising that nascar fans don’t like the Obamas? If you think they were booing the vet, you are clueless.
