H.M.A.S.P. -- Hockey Moms Against Sarah Palin

It probably sounded like a safe bet at the time: Self-pronounced hockey mom Sarah Palin dropping the puck amongst peers at a Philadelphia Flyers game. Her campaign manager should've been more informed about Philly fans.
Sarah Palin
Just for knowin's sake, Philadelphia fans are legendary for being the most brutal in all of sports -- they once booed Santa Claus during an Eagles half-time show. But cut to last night when Sarah skated into the Flyers' stadium to drop the ceremonial puck -- only to be greeted by a split of boos and cheers.

Politics really brings the best out in people.

16. EXACTLY DrunkenMick, she was campaigning not enjoying a night out with her kid. If there was any concern for her child, she would have left them at home. A Philly stadium is not a place to take lightly. It was a photo op combining hockey and being a mother. Duhhhh, guess this blue collar, Philly fan got the point (and threw up in my mouth a little bit) from her campaigns lame attempt to fool the public.

17. Best thing about you philly fans is watching you get beat down by new yorkers in the garden when you try and play that make believe tough guy crap.

18. The life of a hockey parent.....5 am practices, 500 dollars a year on eqiupment......Maybe Palin should talk to McCain about putting in a 500 dollar tax credit for kids who play sports to cover there costs like we get here, so more kids can enjoy hockey, very easily one of the more expensive sports (I work with kids who spend about 1000 dollars a year on sticks alone

19. Hey #3 "osama_obama":.....It is funny but I was thinking about the same thing the other day when I briefly watched her on an interview. The only explanation I have is that she is very transparent, unlike her husband, and she is always showing her bitterness towards white people and America in general

20. She's trying to incite hatred in the name of god. The woman is either mentally inbalanced or just plain evil.

21. JUST A REMINDER FOR YOU GUYS OUT THERE:

IF OBAMA WINS WE HAVE TO SAY:

GOODBYE TO OUR AMERICA'S DREAM!
AND WELCOME TO AMERICA'S NIGHTMARE!

22. It's time for Ms. Palin and her tribe to head "North to Alaska" where she can drop all the pucks she desires.

24. In response to #18 "TJ":

I have a better idea...what if Sarah could ask Obama to lend her some of the money he's received from terrorists in other countries? I mean, he has received millions of dollars and now that Acorn and all the fraud businesses he's been linked to are going kaput he will definitely have enough money left over...I mean, I don't think he is going to spend it on fixing the economy with it, ha? which it may be a good idea since he and his freaking party were the one to create the mess anyway.....but I doubt it because frankly my dear, HE HAS OTHER PLANS!

just a thought......

25. The comments on Michelle are so true. She is such an ugly angry woman (talk about lipstick on a pig). The thought of her being our first lady is just disgusting. Of course her husband is even worse. Just go to youtube and watch the 100 plus videos of him ignoring our national anthem while every other person has their hand over their hearts. They hate America. Boggles my mind that so many people are going to vote for him. Oh well, that's democracy.

26. Hey #24 "MJ":

How about sending your anti-Christ Obama back to Africa. He will be most welcomed there since is the home of most radicals and the Islam. And his wife could stop pretending that "she likes America and the white"

27. Maybe if she were truthful people would have a better reaction. If you take your kids then you should expect them to
hear some unpleasant things.

28. "They once booed Santa Claus during an Eagles haltime show." That was 1968!!! The man portraying Santa Claus was also drunk! However, it was a dumb move for the McCain campaign, a heavily democrat blue collar fan base in southeast PA. It reminds me of Bill Clinton doing "start your engines" at Darlington raceway (NASCAR) in 1992. He was booed badly.

29. it is very simple:

BLACKS DON'T LIKE WHITE...and they show it
WHITES DON'T LIKE BLACKS...but they pretend they do

it is just not a good mix. And since this country is governed by predominantly whites, is going to be chaotic if Obama wins. A lot of white people are voting for Obama out of the hatred they have towards Bush and the conservative parties. Not a good excuse as it will backfired them....but oh well, all you are adults I presume

30. I can't vote for Obama. Here's my super-shallow reason. Anyone ever see a picture of his dad? Talk about throwing up a little in the mouth. The fact his mother let that muslim thing crawl on top of her means she had to be nuts and thus unfit to raise him properly. Anyhow, my thoughts my vote.
