Well here is a remark that has to make any Clinton fan smile.
“I
thank her every time she sings ’Evergreen’ for me at political events,”
said former President Clinton, who called Streisand to the stage and
handed her the award.
These were President Clinton's
words in tribute to Barbra Streisand as she received the Chaplin Award
at Lincoln Center. Everyone who is anyone was there.
April 23, 2013
Bill
and Hillary Clinton dined with industrialist Len Blavatnik and
hedge-fund manager Richard Perry. Goldman Sachs Group Inc. President
Gary Cohn left his seat with Anchorage Capital Group LLC’s Kevin Ulrich
to visit at their table.
The gathering last night on the promenade
of the David H. Koch Theater rounded out a Film Society of Lincoln
Center tribute to Barbra Streisand as the recipient of the 40th
anniversary Chaplin Award, named after its first recipient, Charlie
Chaplin.
I could not agree more with this remark!

"Ever since I can remember, people have been calling me bossy and opinionated," Barbra Streisand told a crowd at Lincoln Centre on Monday night. "Maybe that's because I am. Three cheers for bossy women!"
The
crowd, which included Bill and Hillary Clinton, cheered for pretty much
anything connected to Streisand all evening as the star of song and
screen was honoured for her film career with the 40th annual Chaplin
award from the Film Society of Lincoln Centre.
