is what sucks. Cheering on boorish behavior sucks. I didn't like it when John Edwards was booed in Vegas. I didn't like seeing anyone say he deserved it or excuse those who did it. That was pitiful. Petty. Spiteful. Ugly. So were the suggestions that the booers were Clinton "plants".

And now Clinton gets booed in Iowa. That sucks equally. And the cheering of it here is simply pitiful. Petty. Spiteful. Ugly. And because it's Clinton the plaudits for the booing is amplified by the strong dislike/hate for her here.

Consistency is sometimes the hobgoblin of small minds, but in this case, it certainly shouldn't be.

Making the whole thing even worse, Clinton wasn't even there and couldn't confront her detractors- throw in cowardly as a descriptor of those booing.

Now we've got an ignorant childish post zipping up the 'Greatest Page'. Why? Because it bashes Clinton. Not criticizes. Bashes.

Pathetic. And deserving of nothing more than contempt both for the OP and for those who think it's just swell to mindlessly attack en masse. Group think and nothing but.
