    So true!

    I wonder exactly what the guy was thinking?! What was the point? Its a WDW attraction not a political forum.

    Disrespectful, rude, setting a bad example, and inconsiderate of others...hey, probably the same guy who plops himself down smack in the center of the row at the 3D shows and refuses to move. Or the guy that jumps in line in front of you then lets 20 of his friends and family go ahead, or...the list goes on. Some people just go about ruining things for the rest of us.

    I'm in the minority cause it wouldn't have bothered me. Well, okay, a quick boo would have made me snicker, but I wouldn't want someone talking over the entire attraction. I only go on it to take a nap.

    The last time we went to Disney my youngest was 2 and she sat quietly through the entire show!! Goes to show the mentality of that man was younger than a 2 year old!! I can not believe adults can be so rude around kids.... I certainly hope he did not have any of his own!! I am sorry you had to deal with that... it is a great attraction and such a shame you didnt get to hear all of it. I can not believe a cm did not ask him to leave either... there was a man when we were in there who had a light on his camera and a cm came right over and asked him to turn it off.

    I think it says a lot about a persons character to do something so rude and immature. Everyone has presidents they aren't too fond of, but do we set around booing them? How foolish. Sounds like he went in for just that purpose and frankly, I would have ended up saying something if I'd been close enough. Also, what a person thinks of an individual president is their own opinion, but the office itself deserves a great deal of respect and that seems to be something some do not understand. Can you imagine if we all sat booing the presidents we didn't like?

    This poor behavior was an example of the need of the least intelligent members of our society to publicly display their ignorance.

    The offender should have been removed from the theatre.

    When will people learn that they can't behave the same way in a theater (Disney attraction, movie, or other) that they do in their living rooms?! I agree with the poster who said that this person showed a very bad example while ruining the show for others. I wonder if the CM's were too surprised or weren't sure how to correct the man without making a bigger scene?
    I like to imagine that there is a special bubble around Disney World where there are no politics... just happy times for guests.

    I believe there was something that happened, not to the extent of this, when I was there once. I believe there was a boo from one man, then a cheer from the other. But that was it. It was after the speech, and they stopped.

    Whether or not you agree or disagree with any president, it is uncalled for and rude to disrupt a show of any kind, no matter where you are.

    All this man proved is that he is inconsiderate and rude. I bet people weren't agreeing or disagreeing with his view, they were more upset that he did it, rather than what he said.

    Chances are this wasn't the first time this happened.

    This is lame at best. Once again, this is a story about a brunch of "ONEers" who don't understand how to act at WDW.

    Sad, they spoil the show for everybody.

    I have never seen this before. Certainly is rude by anyone's standards.

    I agree that this is not surprising. In this day and age there are plenty of rude people in all parts of the political spectrum. This is rude, boorish behavior, whether it is directed at George W. Bush, Bill Clinton, or Calvin Coolidge! Why does everyone seem to think that their freedom to express their opinions includes being disruptive in an inappropriate location? Tsk, tsk, tsk!

    Dunno but there's perfect vacation spot for those people. It's called "Universal Studios" and "Six Flags"!

    At the end, those people will not understand the magic... and it will be their loss.

    I cannot believe how people act in public sometimes. It's like those people that feel they are specially entitled beyond other guests. I can't tell you how many times people have stepped right in front of my 4 year old at the last minute at a parade and when I ask them to move they tell me that they paid to come here and they aren't moving . It's so disappointing. Why can't people just act appropriately in public?

    I am sorry, this was extremely rude and disrespectful. I know in America we are blessed with the freedom of speech. But, please be considerate of others during the show.

    Now that would have been funny!

    Although I have wanted to boo, I would never let my disdain for a politician ruin someone else's viewing of HoP. I keep it in during the show, then give my family an earful when its over. In fact, I usually skip this attraction because it brings up feelings and who wants to be angry at WDW? I don't know why someone with so little self-control would even go into the HoP. He must have known that W was depicted in the show, why put himself and the other people in the theater in that position?
