Only after he realized it was getting away from him. You could almost see the “OMFG! WHAT has She been DOING?!” in his eyes at that particular campaign event.
Apparently, even conservative media outlets and groups are condemning the candidates for not addressing the booing, or even acknowledging Stephen Hill’s service. GOProud and Log Cabin have put out statements as well. It’s kind of sad to see those two groups beating their heads against the Tea Party wall like this, though. It’s like “African-Americans For The KKK” or “Jews For Aryan Nation” or something.
Straw men have no race nor color. Your response is invalid.
I’ll give you an e-cookie if you can find any post of mine where I’ve referred to anyone as a ‘traitor’, a ‘terrorist’ or insinuated that a Democrat/liberal leaning person “hates America”.
Eh, just shows that people are happy to stay second class citizens as long as they are promised tax breaks.

Tax breaks that, statistically, aren’t even likely to directly effect them.
“Chickens For Colonel Sanders”
But the second class citizens aren’t even being offered tax breaks, this go around.
Heh, reminds me of those Foster Farms commercials where chickens are trying to fake being Foster Farm Chickens so they can be considered good enough to be slaughtered and packaged?
Hey, I never said they’d get them, I said they’d be promised them.
Vote for me, and free oral sex for everyone*!

Well, this is mostly a somewhat liberal board.
But, here you are!
He’s a victim! Poor guy! Just another conservative victim! Why can’t they just drag homos behind their trucks without libruls being so intolerant?

I didn’t say anything about you condemning Democrats or liberal people in general as “hating America”. I’m saying that if during Democratic debate the audience boo’d a currently serving soldier you would be criticizing them and the fact that none of the debaters said anything about it. Am I wrong?
I don’t know about OMG - but I certainly would have been someone disgusted by the behavior of the audience. I would have attributed it to the general attitude of anti-military sentiment that I heard from Democrats on campus when I wore a uniform.
So I see myself in this. I am disgusted. I am hurt. I am angry. As someone else said, bigotry outweighed jingoism in the audience, and nobody on the podium said a damned thing.
I am so fucking done with my former party.
You don’t chastise the people you’re auditioning for.

I agree. As a fiscal conservative I hate the fact that the current Republican party caters to the social conservative idiots that infest the party. I would love to be able to proudly vote for a Republican, unfortunately, I cannot in good conscience. The party has been turned over to the fucking idiots and I have no choice but to oppose them. As much as I dislike Obama and feel he has squandered his presidency, I have no choice but to vote for him against whoever runs against him.
Do we have links to any of this stiff? If we can verify it them I’m all for a “I applaud the conservative madia” thread.
Plus I’d really like to read the articles and I can’t search at work.
I wonder if they’ll take the opportunity to also boo an Air Force vet when Rick Perry is finally forced out of the closet.
Was there anything similar for the “Let him die!” comment, or is it just this one that was bad because they flubbed their obligatory fellating of the military?
