Michelle Obama, Dr. Jill Biden Draw Boos at NASCAR Event

First Lady Michelle Obama and Dr. Jill Biden were grand marshals at today’s NASCAR season finale at Homestead-Miami Speedway, appearing as part of their charitable campaign to support military veterans and their families.

But their benign, bipartisan cause wasn’t enough to prevent public fallout from the nation’s polarized political climate as they were introduced before the crowd.

ESPN video from the event documented loud boos from some in the stands as the announcer named Obama and Biden, seconds before they delivered the “most famous words in motorsports,” telling drivers to start their engines.

Look dissent is patriotic, so if they're offended by jobs bills or the killings of Osama bin Laden & Moammar Khadafy, they're totally within their rights to boo the wives of the Prez & Veep. Or maybe they take Mrs Obama's war on obesity as a personal affront. But show a little class, folks. If the cause is supporting the families of the military, I think we can all pull together on that one.

sadly, I wasn't surprised at the childish behavior of some people. In fact, I knew it was coming as soon as I saw the women had been chosen as Grand Marshalls.

Republicans just don't like strong, democratic women. We are threatening.

Yeah, you DUmmies are real upper-crust.  Hypocrites.

Republicans don't like crazy and ugly.  We are scary.
