He probably is, then again he hasn't gotten the chance to do anything yet - well at least to Bush's scale.

I'm just saying still people need to make a choice whether it was Bush's own act of trying to become rich, or it was illuminati or some space aliens (Whichever floats ones boat) was manipulating the strings of the country and Bush along with his pals. Like earlier if it is the latter then we are booing the wrong person.

Hey there, I missed that part but I saw most of the inaguration.

To be honest, I think the Bush admin is one of the wors, if not the worst presidential administrations in US history.

But I was raised to never boo as it is rude and just not appropriate ever.

I remember when I was little going to a few sporting events. If I booed my mom would always yell at me for booing. She would say dont do that! its rude and it only makes you look bad because its a sign you have bad manners etc....

I must say that if I had been there I would not have booed anyone. I probably would not have applauded but I certainly would not boo.

Booing like that only makes on look incosiderate and rude. Taunting them saing "we won, ha ha" Makes one look childish and and arrogant.

There is an old saying " If you can't say anything nice, dont say anything at all"

That is what should have been done. Its alot more respectful to just sit there and do nothing than to boo.

Im willing to bet that they already know how the majority of the world feels about them and I see no reason to rub it in.

Whoever boo'd failed to realize that the whole world was watching and in a way they were representing america. We are hated enough as it is. I dont want them thinking even worse of us. They only succeeded in making Obama and the rest of his supporters (including me) look badly

I would not go as far as to say I am ashamed of america as a whole, but I am ashamed of everyone that booed.

I do like Obama as president, at least at the moment. I am reserving any real judgement(good bad or otherise) untill he has been in office for a while and has actually had a chance to do something.

I must say, I am ashamed of everyone who boo'd. If you cant say anything nice, dont say anything at all...

You know for the first time in a long time I didn't felt animosity for bush and actually felt that he like many presidents before him was just that, another president leaving the white house and becoming part of our history.

I was too emotional for anything that was going on to be mad at anybody.

Yes you are right it was not the appropriate time to do the booing, when the nation is celebrating hope.

You are right Js it was tacky.

I have to agree with you, I am ashamed of my nation for the first time unlike Michelle Obama.

That shows you how mature Obama supporters are I suppose.


wow..

Nothing shows maturity like throwing insults
