    An Obama at a Nascar event, what could go wrong?

    What's next, Bush at the NBA all-star game?

    Meh. In my opinion, the gravity of this news is equivalent to if Barbara Bush were to be booed at a Phish concert.

    So what do a NASCAR race and a Phish concert have in common? You'll never find me at either one.

    Not a conservative but I've never really had a problem with reactions like this.

    No big deal IMO. I bet she has gotten "booed" by folks elsewhere too.

    Not a big deal, but classless nevertheless.

    Show of me a video of republican first lady getting booed. What has Michelle Obama done to them? Talk about lack of respect. Total lack of class but that's to be expected from a Nascar event.

    LOL, dude, the Bushes got booed unmercifully at the 2009 inauguration. Probably a dozen other places and events before and since then. They were unpopular, but they got good at avoiding places where they knew the crowd wasn't on their side. That, or they'd just pre-screen the crowd and kick out any unfaithfuls.

    NASCAR is a complete joke regardless.

    That was when Mr. Bush was around, I`m sure his wife did not get booed when she was at an event by herself.

    She was introduced separately, and was resoundingly booed, IIRC.

    I think it showed bad taste to boo the first lady.

    NASCAR'S fan base is typically white conservative bubba types. of course she was going to get booed. who is shocked? who is surprised?


    hell, they made a big deal about Toyota being in NASCAR, despite being the only car manufacturer to build their car in the United States.
