Barbra Streisand: "Shut the F*ck up!" to fan

Unhinged liberal Democrat can't stand disent, but practices disent in her concerts. This gives you a picture of the extreme liberal mind.
Streisand, 64, an ardent Democrat, has used the opportunity of her first U.S. tour in 12 years to snipe at President George W. Bush, employing a Bush impersonator to sing a duet with her while blasting the administration's policies.

Not all members of her audience, who paid up to $250 for a ticket, have appreciated her politics. During a performance at New York's Madison Square Garden this week, one concertgoer yelled out, asking if the concert was a fundraiser. Streisand replied: "Shut the f--- up!"

Streisand apologized to the audience of about 20,000 people for losing her temper, but her outburst and inclusion of her political views in her show alienated some fans who have written to newspapers and Web sites to rebuke her.

One fan, Margaret Ferrante, said she was outraged to hear Streisand ridicule an audience member and any Republicans in the audience.

"She turned a display of her phenomenal musical talent into a profanity-laden attack on people who paid good money to see her," Ferrante wrote the New York Daily News on Thursday.
"I love her voice but could not in good conscience ever pay to see her perform again."

Another fan, John Culver, who attended the concert on the night of the heckler, said the man had been bothering the singer all night -- but slammed her anti-Bush skit.

"Don't bite the hand that buys your record, Barbra. We all know your politics. Shut up and sing!" Culver wrote to the Daily News.
Dan Johancsik wrote to the Orange County Register in California to say: "Subjecting loyal fans to one's own sour grapes politics is flat-out immature."
