    Oops, that should read ... "maybe the IRS will do an audit on everyone at that race" ...

    The pay back for booing. Now, I don't have any "dog in this fight", I am a registered Republican.

    Ya know I don't really care one way or the other when it comes to politics as its all rigged anyway, But they were doing a good thing and these people Booed them. Ya know if those people had sons or daughters like me in Afghanistan and hadn't heard from them in Months they may feel different when the Presidents wife is trying to help feed the families that have lost someone.

    But at what cost? It ain't cheap parading the First Lady around like that. How much did it cost to bring her to the race vs. how much was raised for the cause? Why don't they just spend the money on food instead of on political showmanship?

    I bet they would have raised more money passing around a tin can with a sign on it after you figure in costs.
     
    old-school and American-Trucker Thank this.

    Low class? If they wanted to "support the troops" they could be talking about how everyone in Washington could give up their high salaries, and extra benefits so that our boys (and girls) overseas could have more of the things they need.

    shes just lucky the grandmarshalls are too far away from the stands to get hit with beer bottles. Her and her little husband have dont NOTHING good for this country. And NASCAR fans tend to be Hard Working American Citizens not snoby rich people who dont care about anything other then their bank balance......she picked the wrong sport to visit

    Like I said...'Low class'....

    My worst enemies wife could show up somewhere in public to give a speech, and I'd extend to her nothing but grace and respect...

    Class...either you have it or you don't...

    Just because they did not vote for him, does not give them the right to not respect the office.

    The same was said for those that did not like Bush or the others.

    On the other side, who really cares what Nascar thinks.
