Hero New York City firefighter Mike Moran, who thrilled a Madison Square Garden concert audience Saturday night when he taunted Osama bin Laden with the words, "Kiss my royal Irish ass!" slammed New York Senator Hillary Clinton on Wednesday, saying she's a transparent phony.
"I think when times are good and things are going well, people will sit there and listen to the kind of claptrap that comes out of her mouth," Moran said, in an interview with number one radio talker Rush Limbaugh.
Limbaugh had asked Moran why he thought the Garden audience booed Mrs. Clinton off the stage when she tried to introduce a video clip by comic Jerry Seinfeld. The hero fireman didn't hesitate to offer an explanation.
"When things are going like this, when it's serious times and serious men who actually suffered losses and she wants to get up and spew her nonsense -- she doesn't believe a thing she says. She says whatever she thinks will fit the moment."
Moran told Limbaugh that Mrs. Clinton's phoniness is transparent. "I think it comes through. And in serious times, people don't want to stand for it."
Moran said he wasn't a hero. But instead praised the men of Ladder Company Number 3 in Manhattan, 12 of whom, including Moran's brother, perished while trying to rescue burn victims from the fortieth floor of World Trade Center Tower One.
"The captain, Paddy Brown, gave a report from the North Tower that they had 30 to 40 severely burned people that they were trying to get down the stairs," Moran told Limbaugh.
"A few minutes later, he gave the most urgent kind of message a fireman could give -- a mayday that the building was coming down around him."
Moran said the building didn't fully collapse for another ten minutes, more than enough time for his colleagues to escape certain death.
But, said the fireman, "they wouldn't leave those people."
"I can't allow myself to be compared to those true heroes," the he told Limbaugh.

Bull sh!t you &^%((*,#!@89## nothingI could imagine would be rude enough for the Bastard from Hope and his whore.Get it through your skull....they caused of this mess.
Where in the world did you hear that?
What conservatives stand for is integrity, life, America, God, individual liberties, smaller less oppressive government, pragmatism, personal responsiblity, an educated electorate, defense of America and other such mundane things.
We put up with this pig in a poke and her husband's hypocracy, lies, thefts, cheats, victimization, denigrating of our military, rapes and other EVILS while infesting the PEOPLES HOUSE for over eight YEARS!
As far as I'm concerned, this comes under the heading of conservative pragmatism. We don't hide events in this touchy feely blanket and try to pretend that evil doesn't exist in the world, it DOES exist and that's what seperates us from the left.
I don't feel any pity for her. Watching the tv, I was cheering them on. She got EXACTLY what she deserved. Class is a relative term. I thought those fire/policemen showed remarkable class by not getting up on that stage and throwing her off. not that all of them together could budge her ponderous weight or bear to touch that ugly pantsuit.
I'm no fan of Hillary but she grabbed the spotlight far less than Giuliani and Pataki did. Somehow Giuliani is now perceived as some great guy even while he was trying to subvert our laws by trying to extend his term and trying to rewrite the law to allow a 3rd term. If Hillary had been in the same situation and behaved similarly the bile here would be flowing big time.
They're all scum.
There are occasions when rudeness is a reasonable and appropriate reaction. Considering the antagonistic history Hillary has with police, it is probably a good thing there were no eggs or tomatoes available.
If Hillary had her feelings hurt, she can always go to see Rev. Sharpton and spend the day discussing how horrible and nasty and unfeeling the racist-sexist-homophobic NYPD is. She seemed to enjoy spending a lot of time doing just that before the election.
These people were booing because they were there to celebrate people who gave their lives trying to save others. Hillary represents the total complete opposite of that kind of sacrifice. She would gladly give up anyone elses life to save hers.
Exactly right. The booing should have been even louder for Blubba than it was for Ol' Crusty Pantsuit.
Can't bring myself to go to their websites.
I can't stomach them anymore
I just read your freeper profile...
You're a Watson Fellow and a recent college graduate!?
Please allow me the first to offer you congratulations and express my admiration:
FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRT!
In another instance she had the White Travel Office employees removed from their offices, put in a van and driven off the premises without any of their belongings. Then she, through her beloved Janet Rhino, had the FBI bring charges against them.
This bitch does not deserve any courtesy.
DOes it get ANY better than this??
If they had simply sat on their hands, the lefties in the audience would have filled the hall with their own applause and cheers. No one would have known that the firemen and police were not clapping like crazy.
