This Day in History: Shocked and Appalled
Thirteen years ago today, Booster Gold stood in front of the nation and accused the United States government of failing to protect its citizens in the pages of Haven: The Broken City #5.

Booster's been doing this sort of grandstanding for years. He might not be a politician himself, but he loves the spotlight as much as any Senator. Stick a microphone in his face, and he'll talk 'til your ears fall off.
Over the years, we've seen him call press conferences to denounce Superman and praise Manhunters. By comparison, publicly accusing the U.S. Commander-in-Chief for ignoring an alien invasion is practically patriotic.
