I agree wholeheartedly with Coulter that the hecklers are simply democrats who have no ability to have a debate. This kind of behavior is rude and uncalled for, even if you dont like someone. Were they protesting outside things would be different, but they disrupted a speech others wanted to listen too. As usual the minority terrorizes the majority.

University campuses are the most notorious places for such activity (on both right and left). Indeed, I had the pleasure of seeing some brave souls heckle both Prime Minister Chretien and Prime Minister Mulroney at various university lecture halls. Both Prime Ministers stopped their speeches and walked out due to the level of razzing they were receiving - and to the cheers of the audience. First time in my life that I actually felt like I lived in a democractic country.

Democracy doesn't provide any kind of 'right' for the partisan media or political elites to lecture their messages directly and without interpretation or interruption. It is a democratic right of the people to treat such politicians with contempt.
