Hillary: I've Gotten Used to Being Booed

Hillary: I've Gotten Used to Being Booed

Since launching her bid to become New York's senator, Hillary Clinton says she's been booed by crowds so many times that she's now gotten used to it.

Asked about an incident where she was booed off the stage at Paul McCartney's Oct. 20 concert to honor firefighters and police killed in the Twin Tower attacks, Mrs. Clinton told the New York Times Sunday Magazine, "I've gotten used to being in situations in political life, either vicariously or on my own, where that just happens sometimes."

Clinton described the humiliating heckling episode as "part of the healing process" in the wake of the World Trade Center attack.

"(The firefighters and cops) can blow off steam any way they want to," she added. "They've earned it."

The former first lady has also been publicly booed at New York City's St. Patrick's and Israeli Day parades as well as at her own New Year's Eve Millenium celebration on Washington, D.C.'s Mall.

Clinton campaign biographer Beth Harpaz, author of the book, "The Girls on the Van," recently told Fox News Channel's Bill O'Reilly that Sen. Clinton hasn't attended any funerals for constituents killed in the 9/11 attacks because she's afraid she'll be booed.

And while she wasn't heckled or jeered during her first visit to Ground Zero on Sept. 14, one on-the-scene source told NewsMax.com that firemen and cops refused to shake her hand.

The Times profile also revealed that Mrs. Clinton's obnoxious eye-rolling during President Bush's address to Congress just days after the 9/11 attacks was more typical than previously known.

"Her aides insisted it had nothing to do with the president," reported Timesman Frank Bruni.

"But when I later saw her at a Senate budget committee hearing, she silently and reflexively shook her head and rolled her eyes almost every time one of the economists who were testifying mentioned Bush's tax cut."

The first time she was booed it was after she had sex with Bill.

That woman has no shame, absolutly NO SHAME.

It's impossible to shame a sociopath, like her or her "husband".

Kind of like how a pig gets used to living in its own filth.

It seems that people just don't understand Hillary. She is a very ambitious woman. When she was young, women were not largely accepted in politics. She chose Bill Clinton as her "horse" to ride to power. She was the power and intelligence behind him and as such, she ignored his sexual abberations. When her "horse" had run his course, society had proceeded to the point where a woman could make it in politics so she ran for senator. This is an intelligent, amoral, ruthless woman. In her search for power she will trample over anyone she can.

Time to post again the story of the Arkansas victims---and how they created another---they are all sick people.

"I MISLED PEOPLE" Time.com 8/98.
SPECIAL REPORT AUGUST 31, 1998 VOL. 152 NO. 9 WHEN CHELSEA CLINTON WAS SIX years old, her parents used to make her cry in hopes that they could make her tough. Dad was in the middle of an especially ugly re-election fight, his enemies were drawing blood, and so they all tried a game at the dinner table------ THE REST OF THE STORY

This woman is a true street fighter. She has no conscience, no morals, the ends always justify the means, and everybody is expendable. She needs to be fought in kind.

Does this scripture in the Bible remind you of someone?

"Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;"

I Timothy 4:2
