These arrogant lowlife assholes who Bush calls his base are beneath contempt. There's simply no other (or cleaner) way to describe them.
Audience boos as Bush offers best wishes for Clinton's recovery
HOFFMANIA NOTE: Jeebus, in another case of peeing their pants in front of Karl Rove, WNBC changed the entire headline and story. Thankfully, CBS-TV in NYC still has it here.

President Bush on Friday wished Bill Clinton "best wishes for a swift and speedy recovery."
"He's is in our thoughts and prayers," Bush said at a campaign rally.
Bush's audience of thousands in West Allis, Wis., booed. Bush did nothing to stop them.
Bush offered his wishes while campaigning one day after accepting the presidential nomination at the Republican National Convention in New York. Clinton was hospitalized in New York after complaining of mild chest pain and shortness of breath.
UPDATE: In another case of revisionist history, the
White House web site is reporting it thusly:
"En route here we just received news that President Clinton has been hospitalized in New York. He is in our thoughts and prayers. We send him our best wishes for a swift and speedy recovery."(Applause.)
Ah ha. In the Bush administration, "boo"s are now reclassified as "applause." I got it.
