You have to be a loser and a coward to disrespect a Medal Of Honor winner!!!

[DemocratSinceBirth]

You embarrass me. You embarrass my party. You embarrass yourselves.

[TNProfessor]

1. They are losers. Total fucking losers. nt

[Blaukraut]

2. They really should pick their battles more wisely

[hrmjustin]

3. They should be removed.

[BooScout]

4. Exactly!

They can protest in the street. Preferably in the gutter.

[MFM008]

5. Thank you

They have sacrificed nothing.

[BeyondGeography]

6. My daughter's there and says it was the CA delegation

Damn west coasters.

[Barack_America]

7. God damned hippies shouting down our bluster!

Let's just say Allen's speech was not my favorite, and I'm puzzled why anyone on DU would disagree with, "no more wars".

I really don't recognize this place most days.

[BeyondGeography]

8. He was a little too intense, IMO

I would have preferred he face the crowd on his own and not have all those folks on stage taking undeserved hits from the crowd.

[Barack_America]

9. I would have preferred a speech more in line with Obama's foreign policy.

And a bit less like his predecessor's.

[JustinL]

14. +1000. Obama's speech was beautiful and inspiring.

Leave the jingoistic bullshit to the Republicans.

[MelSC]

10. It's disrespectful

How is that so hard to understand? It's in poor taste. Wrong time, wrong place.

[David__77]

13. Political winds blow in different directions at different times.

This election season will end.

[auntpurl]

19. It wasn't aimed at you, or most in that hall. nt

[leanforward]

11. "my thoughts and prayers are with them"

My position on booing the Medal of Honor soldier is STFU. You honor those folks. To me, the booers deserve mandatory public service at Arlington. Visit the Tomb of the Unknown. The MoH winners have gone thru hell. The soldier on stage lived. What about . . . . ?

[Johnny2X2X]

12. They can join Westboro Church

It's the same mentality. They think that they are right and being right means you don't need to respect anyone or anything.

[democrattotheend]

15. Wasn't John McCain a medal of honor winner?

I would have no problem booing him.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

16. No. Bob Kerrey is the only Medal Of Honor winner to have served in the Senate since Reconstruction.

I would boo John McCain in a New York minute, but not when he is discussing his military service.

[democrattotheend]

17. Ok, fair enough

I would not boo John McCain discussing his military record. I would boo when he talks about the president "making us less safe" or any of that other BS he spews.

[Scurrilous]
