Hillary Clinton Heckled in Chicago
2008 presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton was heckled by a crowd of high school and college-age students in her hometown of Chicago yesterday, with ABC News reporting that security guards eventually "dragged some of the protesters out of the auditorium."
The former first lady was onstage only a few seconds when the crowd erupted with shouts of "Troops out now! Troops out now!"
As anti-war leaflets poured from one balcony, umbrellas were unfurled from another displaying the message "Out of Iraq."
Mrs. Clinton initially tried to bargain with her critics, pleading, "Give me a chance and I'll address that if you'll then be quiet."
But as the heckling continued, security guards pounced on at least two protesters and dragged them away.
After delivering her prepared remarks, Mrs. Clinton returned to the subject of Iraq.
"I disagree with those who believe we should immediately pull out," she told the crowd. "And I disagree with those who say we should stay there forever."
Then, looking pained and closing her eyes briefly, the former first lady said: "It would be wonderful if we could turn the clock back – but we cannot."
Q: Do you support the war? A: The president lied.
Q: What is the Demorats alternate plan for Iraq? A: The president has no plan.
Q: Should we pull our troops out immediately? A: Yes and no, depending on whom we are speaking to.
Q: Do you support the troops? A: Yes, they are worn out and broken.
Quick, call the ACLU! She's repressing free speech!!!
Bwhahahahah!
It smells. Just like everything else about the Clintoons.
Sorry Hillary... nobody's advocating that!

hahaha
No one, that I know of, is advocating that we stay there forever. Just more BS from the wife of the BS master.
That's right. Once we finish fighting a country, we leave. Just ask the Japanese and the Germans.
She's in a political painted corner. In order to get the nomination, she must say what the Moonbats want to hear. To get the Middle America vote she must at least sound sane.......
Hitlery speaks out of both sides of her homely face. I don't think that even the lefties believe her for a minute.
She needs a great big cream pie right in her shnozz while on camera. I'd pay to see that.

LoL. Bunch of dirty stinking hippies. We got the same ones here at my College. One of the "pacifist" bastards even egged Arnold when he came to speak.
Who else will run? Kerry won't stand a chance again, they hate Lieberman, Edwards looks like Chucky, and no one lese has any star power. She still has to win in 2006 right? Maybe she will lose but I am not sure if NY can get anyone and the money to beat her in ny.
"loose/loose" -- too loose with the English language, I say. Lose the nonconformity.
This type of thing is probably set up by the Clinton people as a way to make Hillary look moderate by comparison to these nuts, though in fact she is their ideological soulmate.
doh. I actually cut and pasted that from a friends comments on another forum. He needs to learn better spelling.
btw... internet spelling nazi's are out of style.
