America Hater Booed at College Graduation

I must admit I kind of enjoyed reading this:

Utah State University's 123rd commencement ceremony Saturday, featuring keynote speaker Danny Glover, will likely be remembered more for the actor's controversy than his celebrity.

During the color guard presentation of the American flag, a spectator yelled across the Dee Glen Smith Spectrum, "Put your hand above your heart, Glover!"

The five-time Emmy nominee told The Salt Lake Tribune after the ceremony that he doesn't typically cover his heart during flag ceremonies and he meant no disrespect.

"I was listening to the national anthem and paying attention," he said. "I probably wasn't the only one in there who didn't put a hand over their heart."

The intermittent booing throughout the graduation, which was largely overpowered by clapping and cheering, didn't appear to rattle the stage and big-screen star. In his public comments and actions, Glover never acknowledged the behavior dozens of fresh graduates called "stupid," "rude" and "disrespectful."

I'll bet if the speaker had been Karl Rove and the protesters from Code Pink the whole tone of the story would have been different.

Glover has never met a communist he didn't love, and yes, this is rude behavior on the part of those booing, but I can't help but enjoy seeing the left get some of the treatment that's usually reserved for conservatives.
