I don't believe the few people in that vast audience who reacted to the question were booing the serviceman, but rather the question.
The U.S. military's transformational policy concerning homosexual servicemen is a volatile and divisive issue that is in the forefront of the news as we speak.
It was uncouth to publicly voice that displeasure over this question being asked, but it is not the travesty you would make it out to be and not.

Richie....I am sorry but on this we are going have to disagree. I think it is terribly wrong to boo an American soldier serving our country in Iraq. That to me is plain and simple.... Whether the soldier is gay, straight, white, black, man or women....they deserve our respect. This soldier was NOT respected.
No amount of spin can change that....
