This whole booing thing is getting out of hand


Oct 24, 2012, 2:03 PM

Now sites that see tons of viewers, like Drudge, are running this story. While booing during an oath of enlistment is certainly in poor taste, people are going to read the headlines and just assume 80k people at Clemson are booing the President at our military appreciation day. It sounded to me like maybe less than 5% of people there were booing, and the booing they were doing wasn't even close to what you would see if an official missed a call. I wish President Barker would have just ignored it instead of sending out an email. IMO, it was definitely in bad taste, but it definitely wasn't worthy of making national news.

Yep. Perfect example of the Streisand effect, as someone pointed out yesterday.

Red necks, White socks and Blue ribbon beer

The rest of the country may think that we are a bunch of hicks in SC, they might even correctly assume that many of us don't like Boo-bama, but I bet money none of them think that we don't America, guns, momma and all other things sacred like the Army. Anyway, when did SC ever give a rat's a$$ what the rest of America thinks about us. Screw them. If you don't share in that mindset, you are not a real Southerner, you just live here.

I agree with everything expect for the beer part

I have matured and gone from Blue ribbon beer to good craft beers!
