Streisand Heckler A Right-wing Plant?

LATEST: The man who heckled Barbra Streisand at her celebrity-packed New York City gig on Monday (09OCT06) may have been a government stooge, the singer's publicist hints.
The unnamed man took exception to Streisand's onstage digs at US PRESIDENT George W Bush demanding, "What is this? A fundraiser?"
He later left the gig after the singer retorted, "Why don't you shut the f**k up! If you can't take a joke, why don't you leave and get your money back."
Now her publicist Ken Sunshine suggests the taunts may have been pre-planned, revealing similar heckling took place at Streisand's Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, show last week (ends08OCT06).
He tells gossip site PageSix.com, "There's something a little weird about it."

So, John Kerry is a coward, along with Max Clelend. John McCain isn't fit to be president because he was brainwashed as a prisoner of war. There are WMDs in Iraq, or not. Pedophiles are being compared to homosexuals and 40-year-old auto accidents. Habeas Corpus isn't necessary for a democracy anymore. 750 signing statements voiding legislation passed by the branch of government our Constitution says makes legislation, judges accused of "activism" if they follow the law and prescedent but rule contrary to the wishes of the Republican Party line. "Free Speech Zones" in a country that guarantees freedom of speech, and tickets for political events but if your T-shirt says the wrong thing you get kicked out. A never-ending war against a verb, statements by one branch of government saying we don't want permanent bases in Iraq while another branch is building them.I've heard it all and been appalled by most of it, but when they hire some jerk to heckle my favorite entertainer, known to be very liberal by all of her millions of fans, it is too much.I want my country back. I want those people gone from power.
