The basic philosophy of the Democrats and other socialists is that government should do more, and more, and more. Now thet they have been elected, people are expecting them to deliver on their promises. Unsurprisingly, the Dems are failing - they can't even pay for the stuff they are already "giving" people, and the National Debt is skyrocketing as it never has in the nation's history.
And most ironically, it's not conservatives who are heckling them. It's their own base - the people who believed their promises and elected them on that basis.
It's never easy to be a liberal. And when you finally get elected as one, and people then expect you to come through with the Big Government you promised... it gets REALLY hard.

Pelosi Heckled At DC Event Over Lack Of Federal Funding
June 08, 2010
Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi is heckled by Code Pink at an event in Washington, D.C.
"We supported Obama, we supported you, now 21 states are begging for money to help us save the community," a woman screamed at Pelosi.
"You have made your point," Pelosi said in an attempt to quiet the protesters.
An aide informed her that they are "throwing stuff."
