PUBLIC RELATIONS DEBACLE AFTER SEN. HILLARY JEERED AND BOOED BY HEROES

Senator Hillary Clinton's inner circle is furious at MIRAMAX king Harvey Weinstein after the former first lady suffered through a public relations nightmare during Saturday's AMERICA: A TRIBUTE TO HEROES concert in New York City.

Hillary Clinton was jeered and booed by thousands gathered at Madison Square Garden as she took to the stage -- unannounced -- to introduce a movie clip.

VH1 cameras captured firemen and police heroes wildly booing Clinton, who attempted to raise her voice above the shouting crowd.

"Get off the stage! We don't want you here!" yelled one New York City police officer just feet from the senator.

Anti-Clinton slurs spread and intensified throughout the Garden, with many standing near the stage lobbing profanities.

Event-planner and close Clinton friend Harvey Weinstein was visibly shaken as he heard the crowd erupt with boos and jeers, according to an eyewitness.

The junior senator from New York ending up giving the shortest presentation of the evening, clocking in at under 20 seconds.

"How could we not know this would be the wrong forum for Hillary?!" shouted one confidante. "These are cops and firemen who listen to right-wing talkradio. They still think she killed Vince Foster, for Christ sake!"

Other New York politicians received warmer welcomes during the 5-hour concert which featured Paul McCartney, Mick Jagger, Elton John and others.

Former President Bill Clinton, who took the stage minutes after his wife, worked over scattered boos with talk of the rescuers' heroism.

Following the Clintons, James Taylor soothed the heroes with an acoustic FIRE

Wrong, The audience blames the Clintons for killing hundreds of their brother officers.

Their message to Hillary?

Thanks, you psychopathic rodent, you pitiful lawyer excuse for a humanoid.

You emasculated and corrupted the INS, CIA, Department of Justice, and FBI. You sold all of our nation's nuclear and missle technology to the highest bidder.

The United States of America is the WRONG FORUM for Hillary.

Ah! There it is... the left-wing blame game. That's right Hillary. Blame the heros of the day. You'll never hold a candle.

We could have guessed, and some did, that she and her minions would blame the booing on the VRWC as usual, and talk radio! Couldn't be the cops dislike her for her vicious stand against them, oh no, because that would make this her responsibility!
Hubby Bubba just had to get up there and make his usual, " I was President for 8 years" speech, as if we could forget!
Just thought of something, maybe they weren't really booing, maybe what they were really saying was, "Shoo-we!" I mean, how many times can that woman wear that pantsuit?
