Sarah Palin Booed at Philadelphia Flyers Hockey Opener … Don’t Worry Sarah, They Booed Santa Claus Too & Injured Football Players

The City of Brotherly Love huh?

The City of Philly has still never learned any lessons from that fateful October day in 1999 when a city lost its collective soul.

The City of Philadelphia shows once again what it is made of. Last night at the Flyers home opener, Sarah Palin, Willow and her 6 year old daughter Piper were resoundingly booed by the Philadelphia Flyer faithful. So much for class and respect. However, what exactly did anyone expect? It’s Philly, as Hot Air states … at least she made it out alive. Any one knows who has attended a sporting event in Philly and rooted for the away team knows they are taking their life in their hands.

Honestly, what would have anyone expected from Philly fans who in the past booed Santa Claus and threw snow balls at him?  However, nothing was worse in the history of sports fans than the disgusting behavior shown by Philly fans when  Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Michael Irving suffered a neck injury in old Veterans Stadium. The Philly fans actually cheered as Michael Irving lay motionless on Veterans Field.

“I couldn’t believe they cheered when Michael Irvin got hurt,” said Donovan McNabb, the team’s No. 1 pick who was nearly booed off the stage by Eagles fans attending the draft. “You don’t know what to expect from them.”

Many fans in the crowd of 66,669 cheered when they realized Irvin was hurt, and again when paramedics wheeled a stretcher onto the field. Many also cheered respectfully when he was placed in an ambulance, but the damage was done.

“Some people need to grow up and find some inner peace, because there is no peace in watching somebody suffer,” said Irvin’s teammate, Emmitt Smith.

“This, in terms of bad taste, was as bad as it gets,” said Mayor Edward Rendell, an avid sports fan.

We are reminded by The Gateway Pundit that all week we have heard liberals and the MSM talk about how mean Republican campaign stops have been.

The New York Times wishes to make excuses for the rude or boorish behavior of Philly by stating that the appearance was not appropriate. Funny, politicians go to sporting events all the time and the fans whether they support the candidate or not at least act with some class. I do not remember the NASCAR crowd acting with such ill-mannered behavior. If NASCAR fans had ever booed Obama and his children the MSM would have called them racists and a modern day lynching.

While Philadelphia fans are known for not being shy about voicing disapproval, the question has been raised — including by me in an earlier version of this post — whether the appearance was appropriate at a sports event like this.

I do have to take exception and question the McCain/Palin campaign as to what the hell they were thinking in having Sarah Palin with her two daughters go into Navy Blue Democratic territory like Philly where their fans have always been nothing short of rudely insane. Did they think Sarah was gong to be cheered?

MSNBC: PALIN DROPS PUCK TO BOOS, CHEERS

NYT Pulls Misleading Account of Palin Puck Dropping Ceremony

The boos may have been exagerated; however, there were still boos.

In her original post Zinser exaggerated the boos by the crowd, attacked Flyers owner Ed Snider for inviting Palin to the event and appears to have fabricated the discomfort felt by NHL players Scott Gomez and Mike Richards.

That account has since been changed. Somewhere along the line Zinser gutted the original article and replaced  it with a new one that came a bit closer to reality.

Sarah Palin Knows How to deal with Moonbat Heckler … Bless Your Heart … “My Son is Fighting for Your Rights”

Sarah Palin handles a heckler with all the grace of a pit bull wearing lipstick. Check mate moonbat.

Think Sarah Palin cannot handle herself on the campaign trail? Think again as she puts a protesting heckler in his place. For those who wish to express their freedom of speech rights, Republican VP candidate Sarah Palin reminds all who exactly should be thanked for our unalienable rights. Americans best never forget who it is who makes America free as … Freedom is never Free.

Funny, the national MSM did not seem to want to cover Sarah Palin skillfully handling a heckler with grace. I wonder why?

Mr Obama has said that US troops in Afghanistan are “just air-raiding villages and killing civilians”.

AP BREAKING NEWS: Sarah Palin is a Racist … AP Decries Palin Comments Against Obama are Racist

You know you are a racist when … you criticize any thing regarding Barack Obama. The MSM that cried wolf … Remember when the media actually cared about investigative journalism rather than running cover for a political candidate?

So now the Obama water carrying MSM is calling Sarah Palin a RACIST! AP says that Sarah Palin’s comments regarding Obama and domestic terrorist Bill Ayers are racist. UNBELIEVABLE. Welcome to the wonderful world of bias, partisan politics journalism in the United States where any one who makes an assertion or comment against Barack “The Chosen One” Obama is branded a racist. How dare Sarah Palin question Obama’s ties to an unrepentant terrorist.

Watch the Sarah Palin video at the Gateway Pundit.

By claiming that Democrat Barack Obama is “palling around with terrorists” and doesn’t see the U.S. like other Americans, vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin targeted key goals for a faltering campaign.

And though she may have scored a political hit each time, her attack was unsubstantiated and carried a racially tinged subtext that John McCain himself may come to regret.

Michelle Malkin, no truer words have been said … “Putting the “Ass” in “Associated Press.”

The liberal media would have everyone believe that there was no relationship what so ever between Obama and Ayers. How could they allow such knowledge to the people, that would be damaging to Obama’s candidacy. However, as Protein Wisdom points out there is plenty of evidence and references Stanley Kurtz and Steve Diamond, two of the only journalists actually interested enough to look into the relationship, Also HERE and HERE.

Stop the ACLU spells out the ridiculousness and absurdity of AP’s assertion. BTW, was this AP article news or an opinion piece? Sarah Palin questions Barack Obama’s close ties with a domestic terrorist, not because of Obama’s race. Palin is questioning his judgment.

Can Sarah Palin Debate … WOW, You Betcha!!! Palin-Biden VP Debate … Frank Luntz Focus Group Palin Landslide, MSM (CBS & CNN) in the Tank for Obama

 Sarah Palin … SHOCK AND AWE AT THE VP DEBATE! There is a reason why America likes her …

As Michelle Malkin states … Sarah is the real deal, SHE ROCKS!

There were those that questioned whether Alaska Governor and Republican VP candidate Sarah Palin was up to the challenge to debate a 30 year seasoned politician like Joe Biden who was had two Presidential runs of this own. Could Sarah Palin debate … YOU BETCHA!!! It was Sarah being Sarah. This is why Sarah Palin is a star and the LEFT is afraid.

 Peggy Noonan on Sarah Palin: “She Killed”

There is a reason why Democrats, the Left and the MSM want to destroy Sarah Palin and all she stands for. It is because she resonates with every day Americans and is the anti-Washington DC insider. She speaks to Americans as an American, not as an elitist politician. Sarah Palin is the Democrats worst nightmare now and into the future. She is a star on the political stage and the LEFT cannot stand that she is a Republican.

Transcript of Palin, Biden debate

Watch Frank Luntz and his focus poll of undecided voters and what they had to say. The focus group went overwhelmingly for Sarah Palin. The focus group felt as if she was one of them. They thought she was informed and likeable.

Frank Luntz even stated at the end that the reaction to Gov. Sarah Palin’s debate was so positive that we should watch the polls in the upcoming days as there will be a shift … GAME ON!

However, CBS and Hot Air states that CNN are reporting in their polls that Biden won. Sorry, I do not buy it. The MSM has been so in the tank and looking to depress the Republican vote, I cannot take a poll seriously that so many so-called “uncommitted” voters saw that debate as a clear Biden win.

Forty-six percent of the uncommitted voters surveyed say Democrat Joe Biden won the debate, compared to 21 percent for Republican Sarah Palin. Thirty-three percent said it was a tie.

The Gateway Pundit has some great pre-debate footage and material. Even better post-Debate post … Monster Rally Greets Palin Like a Super Bowl Champ After Debate!  Sarah Palin takes St. Louis.

Many of the pundits even the Obama camp said that Palin did a good job; however, Biden won of substance. Really, Biden won on substance? Too bad much of what he said during the debate was just plain factually incorrect. OK, he lied! Carl Rove states that Biden was wrong 16 times during the debate.

Watch the debate for yourself and decide …
