Experiencing cognitive dissonance are we? I hear like 1 or two people TOPS who boo out loud in the swarm of people applauding, which is expected with ANY political entity and celebrity, not everybody is loved, some moreso than others. Anyways, GTFO with your Fox Newsesque propaganda. (edit: DISREGARD THAT, I CAN BE A JUMP-THE-GUN ASSHOLE AT TIMES)

I definitely hear a lot of very loud and long "ooooooo"s in the background. I guess those are boos.
At least I could hear this one, I couldn't for the life of me hear any of the boos that Miss California got when she said those anti-homosexual statements.

And this really isn't surprising since Missouri is a red (Republican) state.

People are finally realizing that his talk and campaign promises had zero substance which is disappointing since so many of us were hopeful.

But without googling, can anyone name his #2 campaign contributor?

And no (in case you think I'm a mindless Repub) McCain wasn't any better of a candidate. He was a doddering old fart who should wander off in the woods and never return.

Ok, what you heard may have been a tiny bit of booing, but the majority of the people were applauding.
Anyone who didn't applaud clearly voted for McCain, or is a country bumpkin who voted for McCain.

I hear alot more clapping and cheering then booing which is very faint. Of course there's always going to be some who don't like a certain person.

You sir, are correct. Doesn't matter which side you pick, the majority of ill-informed Americans will always pick the 'lesser of two evils' in their minds. Here's a nice lengthy quote from one of George Carlin's routines that sums it all up nicely.

George CarlinThere's a reason that education sucks, and it’s the same reason it will never ever ever be fixed. It’s never going to get any better, don’t look for it. Be happy with what you’ve got. Because the owners of this country don’t want that. I’m talking about the real owners now, the big, wealthy, business interests that control all things and make the big decisions.

Forget the politicians, they’re irrelevant.

Politicians are put there to give you that idea that you have freedom of choice. You don’t. You have no choice. You have owners. They own you. They own everything. They own all the important land, they own and control the corporations, and they’ve long since bought and paid for the Senate, the Congress, the State Houses, and the City Halls. They’ve got the judges in their back pockets. And they own all the big media companies so they control just about all the news and information you get to hear.

They’ve got you by the balls.

They spend billions of dollars every year lobbying to get what they want. Well, we know what they want; they want more for themselves and less for everybody else. But I’ll tell you what they don’t want—they don’t want a population of citizens capable of critical thinking. They don’t want well informed, well educated people capable of critical thinking. They’re not interested in that. That doesn’t help them. That’s against their interest. You know something, they don’t want people that are smart enough to sit around their kitchen table and figure out how badly they’re getting fucked by a system that threw them overboard 30 fucking years ago.

They don’t want that, you know what they want?

They want obedient workers, obedient workers. People who are just smart enough to run the machines and do the paperwork and just dumb enough to passively accept all these increasingly shittier jobs with the lower pay, the longer hours, the reduced benefits, the end of overtime and the vanishing pension that disappears the minute you go to collect it.

And now they’re coming for your social security money.

They want your fucking retirement money; they want it back so they can give it to their criminal friends on Wall Street. And you know something? They’ll get it. They’ll get it all from you sooner or later because they own this fucking place. It’s a big club and you ain’t in it! You and I are not in the Big Club. By the way, it’s the same big club they use to beat you in the head with all day long when they tell you what to believe. All day long beating you over the head with their media telling you what to believe, what to believe, what to think and what to buy.

The table is tilted folks, the game is rigged.

Nobody seems to notice, nobody seems to care. Good honest hard working people, white collar, blue collar, it doesn’t matter what color shirt you have on. Good honest hard working people continue, these are people of modest means, continue to elect these rich cocksuckers who don’t give a fuck about them. They don’t give a fuck about you. They don’t give a fuck about…give a fuck about you! They don’t care about you at all, at all, at all.

And nobody seems to notice, nobody seems to care.

That’s what the owners count on, the fact that Americans are and will probably remain willfully ignorant of the big red, white, and blue dick that’s being jammed up their assholes everyday. Because the owners of this country know the truth, it’s called the American Dream, because you have to be asleep to believe it.

There will always be people who boo the president, even if his approval rating is double that of the last guy.

The clip is fun to watch but the topic utterly useless..... I really didn't hear ANY boo (as in the "booing sense"), everybody's cheering and maybe yelling "wooooooh" or something.

What a load of drivel!

What are you coming up with next? Michael Jacksons body moving in a helicopter.

this is it. This world relies on money. Money reigns everyone in a age of capitalsm. You have money -> you have power!
Obama is a good face to advertise a perfect president - but do you know who's controlling him?
