In his speech at Saturday's annual Human Rights Campaign fundraising dinner, the President gave the smack down to those cowardly candidates from the last Republican debate. “We don't believe in the kind of smallness that says it's okay for a stage full of political leaders — one of whom could end up being the President of the United States — being silent when an American soldier is booed,” Obama said. “You want to be Commander-in-Chief? You can start by standing up for the men and women who wear the uniform of the United States, even when it's not politically convenient.” (via.)
During his first interview in nearly five years, Dave Chappelle talks about bulking up and why he gave the silent treatment to a crowd in Florida last month. Turns out it wasn't the first time he went quiet on a whack audience. (via.)
Celebrity Buzz Beyonce and Jay-Z got booed at the Met Gala red carpet for not stopping long enough to take pictures. Ugh, paparazzi are the worst. She obviously had a hard time walking in her dress, so she just wanted to get out.
Sarah Palin was met with a chorus of boos Saturday night at a hockey game in Philadelphia. The “Hockey Mom” was in town to drop the ceremonial first puck at the Philadelphia Flyers' season opener, but this town doesn't take too kindly to strangers. These are the same fans who threw a rain of batteries at J.D. Drew and hurled snowballs at Santa Claus. So, you've got to wonder, what were Palin's handlers thinking?
