Hillary Booed at McCartney's Twin Tower Relief Concert [Free Republic Plug!]

Hillary Booed at McCartney's Twin Tower Relief Concert

New York Senator Hillary Clinton was roundly booed at former Beatle Paul McCartney's Twin Tower relief concert, held at Manhattan's Madison Square Garden Saturday night.

The embarrassing moment came as Mrs. Clinton introduced a short video clip from stand-up comic Jerry Seinfeld.

Though the former first lady has tried to capitalize on the Twin Tower tragedy, thrusting herself before one TV camera after another in an effort to connect with average New Yorkers and advance her 2004 presidential ambitions, McCartney's concert showed the effort still needed more work.

One eyewitnesses to the scene reported to the web site FreeRepublic.com that Clinton "was booed so loudly, she had to yell into the mike to be heard."

Another estimated that "90 percent" of the crowd jeered the former first lady.

Her husband, the former president, who was also present, got a much warmer reception.

Just thought I'd post this to plug Free Republic, and slam Hillary a little bit while I'm at it.

Hillary booed? What's happening in NY? I thought she was a "real New Yorker." I hear Beezlebubba showed-up. Must that man grab every spotlight in the universe?

I'd settle for just the Hillary part.

Richard Gere said something about using taking the revenge energy and doing something positive with it, and he was booed, too.
They made a mistake inviting the heroes de jour (the firefighters and policemen) to this concert.

Carl, Carl, Carl...you mistook the turning down of the audiences microphone (ie booing) for a warmer reception for bubba. He's an idiot as well and they showed a fireman vigorously shaking his head in disagreement when bubba said they accompanied him to OKC, See an unedited copy and judge for yourself.

Oh, everything you say is soooooo true. Why can't the "good" people of NY see the error of their ways? What do us rubes back in fly-over country need to do to make them understand?

It's on at 2pm EST tomorrow. Now the real corker will be whether the boos are edited out or not.

Gotta love it. Hey, Hillary, they call that a "Bronx cheer."

No doubt some of those booing were the brave NYPD and others who Hillarious has dissed over the past two years and whose terrorists (e.g. FALN) Billybob pardoned.
