The Boo Heard 'Round The World

So, the people in the Mexico City audience who gave Miss USA a hard time were really angry about... immigration reform?

News reports are claiming that when Rachel Smith was soundly booed during the interview round of this weekend's Miss Universe pageant, the crowd meant to express its anger toward the United States -- not Smith herself, who was already having a bad night after tripping in the evening gown part of the competition.

Pageant co-owner Donald Trump offered this analysis: "I don't think they are booing because of Rachel. They are booing because of the immigration policy."
