In fairness, I think you are talking about two different things. The discussion was about Hillary's facial expressions at Bush's first speech after the 9/11 attacks, not her appearance at Madison Square Gardens. I haven't seen that myself, but have heard comments about it.

Ah - that will be a memory I shall cherish forever. And did you see this? 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. When 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 said 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 said. "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,"
