Bill Stands Down Heckler

Just got a report in from Jonathan Kaplan of the Portland Press Herald. Apparently Bill got heckled at a Hillary event and, well ...

A lone heckler calling on Sen. Clinton to “end the war” in Iraq interrupted the beginning of Clinton’s speech.

“Would you like to make this speech?” Clinton said. “Sir, this is not your event, this is for Hillary.”

When he said that, “the war is still going on,” Clinton responded, “That is because George Bush is still fighting it.”

The crowd erupted in cheers and shouted down the heckler, who was escorted out of the building by a single police officer.

I'll get the link when it goes online.
