Palin Gets T.O. Treatment from Philly Fans

The Philadelphia fan is notoriously extroverted when it comes to voicing displeasure. The city's brand of sportsmanship was on full display on Saturday night, when Sarah Palin was invited to drop the puck at the Flyers-Rangers game. Despite being America's favorite hockey mom, the VP nominee was greeted with cheers similar to those when Dallas Cowboy Terrell Owens takes the field in the City of Brotherly Love.

For fun, see if you can pinpoint the moment when the music is cranked up to drown out the adoring crowd. Our calculations have it around 14 seconds in.

That is just plain rude. Whether they like her or not, a little common courtesy should be displayed; they gave their city a bad image.

Common courtesy? Oh you mean like the courtesy she shows Obama with the countless attacks and refusal to acknowledge any wrongdoings in Alaska. Right? Lets not forget this is at a competitive sports arena, what did she(or you for that matter) expect? It's not a rally filled with supporters, true sports fans can see through the bs since they have to deal with sports owners/coaches bs all the time. Its up to them whether they cheer or boo and its obvious Philly hockey fans don't believe in the so called 'hockey mom'.

I laughed at the "common courtesy" remark too, especially taking into consideration Sarah Palin's reaction to a couple of fellas being assaulted at one of her rallies. When security stepped in to protect them, this "hockey mom" who seems to be deserving of "common courtesy" suggested that security bring them closer into the middle of the crowd instead of removing so they could "learn a thing or two" from the rest of the crowd. So tell me, how do you reconcile being offended at people booing her at a hockey game while she's calling for her rally supporters to ASSAULT - I mean "teach a thing or two" - those who disagree with them? Sorry, I think she's lucky that the only thing that happens to her is that she gets booed. Considering the example she keeps setting, it could be a whole lot worse!

Philadelphia has a ratio of 5 to 1 of registered Democrats to Republicans. The last time Philly had a Republican mayor was 1952. It was only natural that they were going to boo Palin. John McCain has as much chance of winning Philly as Obama does of winning Wassilla, Alaska.

What do you expect Mare, when a high percentage of hockey or sport fans for that matter would rather seeing fighting than the real sport being played anyway; they wouldn't know 'class' if they fell over it.

Liberals and socialists are Godless, depraved animals. Why would you expect them to possess, have, or display any type of intelligence, integrity, decency, or morality?

You really haven't stopped to comapre the economy between the two. We middle class black/white will all be better off under Obama. McCain is so stupid that he thinks everyone should be rich as Cindy, not him. Without her he is nothing. Poor feeble guy, who just barely totters around. Did you see his tounge stuck out after the last debate???

Get real. This GOP administration and Sara Palin in particular have made him unstoppable. Unfortunately, she's probably got the taste of notoriety and will no doubt be back to bore us again in 2012. God forbid!
