LOLOLOLOLOL Alert: Clinton Pitched Fit Over Hillary Boos

Clinton Pitched Fit Over Hillary Boos

Ex-president Bill Clinton pitched a fit backstage at Paul McCartney's Twin Tower benefit concert Saturday night after his wife Sen. Hillary Clinton was roundly booed by the audience.

Clinton "was very vocal and pointed backstage in his displeasure about the reception for Hillary," reports New York Daily News gossip columnist Mitchell Fink. He was "not happy," Fink added euphemistically.

The ex-president became "vocal and pointed" after Mrs. Clinton was nearly hooted off the stage by concert-goers who apparently resented her attempt to horn in on an event that was staged to honor firefighters and policemen who had perished in the Twin Tower attack.

"Thank you -- thank you for being here tonight," Mrs. Clinton shouted as she struggled to be heard, before introducing a video by stand-up comic Jerry Seinfeld.

Some in the booing crowd no doubt recalled that at Hillary's nominating convention last year, Clinton-backers spit on five members of an Albany Police honor guard as they marched an American flag into the convention center.

Two months earlier, Mrs. Clinton had branded as "murderers" four New York cops who were later aquitted in the accidental shooting death of Amadou Diallo.

The sour reception mirrors the welcome Mrs. Clinton got from cops and firefighters just two days after the attacks, when she accompanied President Bush to Ground Zero in lower Manhattan.

"The cops and firemen couldn't wait to shake Bush's hand," one eyewitness told NewsMax.com exclusively. "But when Hillary came by, everyone just stood there with their arms folded. Nobody wanted to shake her hand. It was embarrassing."

The Daily News mention of Mrs. Clinton's humiliating concert reception was the only mainstream print coverage of the incident.

WABC Radio and nationally syndicated radio host Don Imus, however, did replay clips of the crowd booing Hillary from the original VH1 cablecast.

Don't forget the next segment, when x42 was talking about FDNY going with him to the OKC bombing, the camera panned to a firemen who said, "No we didn't." ROTFLMAO!

You think this has something to do with it? (rhetorical question) Hillary's people think it's because the audience of police, firemen and concerned citizens listen to talk radio... lol.

Even though she cut her speech short, it still GALLS me as to WHAT she DID manage to say......

"Thank you -- thank you for being here tonight," Mrs. Clinton shouted

Errr, excuse me, WITCH CLINTON, but this is ABOUT THEM......not YOU!

She spoke as though everyone was there to honor HER!

BOOOOOOOOOO! BOOOOOOOOOO!

Is it time yet to dust off that old joke about King Willy tossing HRH over the rail at the first game of the season? Punchline was:

No. I said throw out the first

PITCH!

Gotta love them New Yorkers; when they get things right, anyway.

I wonder how many of the police officers and fire fighters were aware of H*****y's recent arrogant attempt to evade the airport security check point, and the fact that a cop was injured in the process? I wonder if that incident had anything to do with her reception at the concert?

Gee, where was Beelzebubba's concern for his dear wife when he was out boinking everything with a y chromosome?

Uh, women have two Xs. Men have XY.

Wanna try that again?

Last night, Drudge did say she was supposed to go on longer. He also said that the whole place was shaking from the booing.

The point the Clinton lovers miss when insulting the heros for their behavior ( which was correct) is that a major part of the evening was also to honor the firefighters, police and EMT's fallen comrades. The word honor has no meaning to the Clintoons, and the audience was just reminding them of it.

I hope they treated this spoiled narcisistic teenager the way all spoiled temper throwing children should be treated.

Sir, how dare you insult spoiled narcisistic teenagers everywhere. I do hope that you will repent of your faux paus.

This is EXACTLY why they don't make themselves available to the general press and public.

Exactly! That's why she chose her TV appearances so carefully before her election.

Did you know that last week when she was on Hannity & Colmes, she said she wouldn't come on there if Sean asked her ANY questions?

Sean would chew her up and spit her out.....heh heh. I'd also LOVE to also see O'Reilly interview her. Gawd, that might be good pay-for-view. LOL!

Yes, we are all laughing now, but mark my words...the liberal media will use this incident to slowly begin tarnishing the heroes...check the Salon story and the email reported by Drudge...they are already spreading the story that the police and firemen were drunk and disorderly during much of the show..."rowdy white Irishmen"(read: racist white trash)...it's just a matter of time folks, so grit your teeth and get ready. There are NO heroes to the liberal media EXCEPT for the Clintons.
