The front of the line couldn't see my sign because of the trees and BUSHES, so I decided to walk on the sidewalk across from the line.

You planning anything for the Moveon.org parties this weekend? As for me, I'm going to cause some mischief of my own. BTW, everyone is invited to Buda for Budafest this weekend. I'll be working one of the booths Saturday or Sunday aternoon.

Good grief! Doesn't this woman ever (go to) work? I mean, she's a U.S. senator but how many days this past year has she actually been at work in the Senate? Are senators allowed unlimited leave of absence?

I was nervous being there alone but these people were much nicer (well more restrained) than the anti-war people.
When I got to the corner, Drewsdad drove by. I waved and decided to walk to the front and wait for him. As I walked up to the 1st parking space, that car left and I stood in the spot to save it for Drewsdad. Of course, he was no where to be found and everyone wanted that space.
I just kept saying I was saving it for my friend and looking around the parking lot. He did finally drive by again and got a choice place.
We decided to continue on the other sidewalk. As we were walking a couple others joined us and a guy came by to to confront us. One of our gals started a little upset, but I have done this before and regreted it later. So he asked why we were against the Clintons so much. I answered calmly that I REALLY resented the fact that they took campaign money from the communist chinese and gave up our nuclear secrets. He agreed that was a really bad thing. Asked if I had proof (I forgot to site the Cox report) but we moved on and had a very nice discussion.
In the mean time the rest of the freepers decided to move to the corner and wave signs at both the line and the cars driving by. Plus it was in the sun!!!! He walked with me and we talked some more. Parted friendly.

Get in line to sign her book, and leave her a bottle of shampoo, and a Spring 2004 Plus-Sizes catalog from J.C.Penney.

So sorry I couldn't make this--woke up with sore throat, etc etc. I'm really waiting for the others to chime in here to add to the report, but it sounds like you did a good job, MS BL!

Does she ever see her "husband"?

Sorry I started so short, but I had typed alot and then lost it. When I started over, I decided to get the thread up and then continue.
We were joined by about 10 or so. I thought a good crowd for those who work. Of course, Hillary had hundreds, but where do they get the money to buy the book?
The list was (and I know I will forget some)
Drewsdad, Gracy, Don Z and Mark - a lurker(from the Liberty Caucus, DWills who brought her daughter, her daughter's boyfriend and a young girl from Guanna (spelling)
Jennifer-a lurker, Rebecca a big troop supporter and my mind is a blank from there. Please sign in!!! We should have taken a list but didn't. Bad Bat Lady!

I remember another book signing a few months ago that a freeper attended and got in line to buy a book..
When she, (the freeper), got to Hillary the freeper asked the witch who's' picture was on the front cover? It didn't go over well with the B%$ch!

Wasn't that "Hillary's Lovely Logs....er, Legs?"

Does she ever see her "husband"? It is funny you asked that, Don Z asked me ..."so what is Bill doing now?" I said I guess just screwing around.
He was asking about my hubby Bill, not Hillary's hubby. Just wanted to let you know that the Bat Lady's hubby was at work!!!

This has to be the longest book-signing tour on record. We in NY State want to know when she's actually going to do something about unemployment here.

I don't remember all the signs we had so please chime in on those, but they were good.
At about 10:30 the word went out that Hillary was coming. The police had the street blocked off and we looked up the street we saw some SUV's. I turned to the people in line and screamed that I TOLD YOU SHE WOULD BE LATE, SHE IS ALWAYS LATE, SHE KEPT THE TROOPS WAITING AND THEM WAITING AND HAS NO RESPECT FOR THEM BY BEING ON TIME.
She turned the corner, right by us and was on our side of the car. She just started waving at US. We waved back. Funny that she didn't read the signs!!!!
Just goes to show that Hillary doesn't pay attention to the little people. Even if they are in line to buy her book.
When they pulled into the back loaking dock....must be something funny here.... she got out of the car and turned right toward us to wave again. The people in line were pushed back and on her side of the street so none of them could really see her, so she was waving at us again.
I remember reading a Hillary freep last night that they yelled LIAR LIAR PANTSUIT ON FIRE every time the door opened, so I screamed that so that she would know that we were everywhere she went!

The People in line were pretty calm until we started chanting and then they chanted back. couldn't understand a word that they said so hope they could understand us.
Some were:
We believe Juanita
My book is missing the chapter on Juanita
Scrap the bottom, vote for Rodham
Stop hillary, do it for the children
Pardons for sale, get them while they are hot.
Rodham Hood, takes from the public and gives to herself.

I had a good idea for street theatre and could educate the crowd at the same time. But it really needs a bullhorn.
Since Hillary said "I don't remember.... I don't recall" 127 times under oath, I thought of make a list of 127 questions yell out the questions and have either a blond freeper say "I don't remember.... I don't recall" after every one. Or all the freepers could yell it. It could be very effective.
I only came up with 60 questions but if you would like to do this at your freep, let me know for the questions I came up with. I will have to email them to you. I don't check my freepmail often, so need lead time.

Mrs. Clinton, where is your husband?
I don't know.
Mrs. Clinton, when was the last time that you and your husband were in the same state?
I don't recall.
Mrs. Clinton, how many soldiers, in Baghdad, were happy to see yourself?
I don't know.
Mrs. Clinton, when was the last time you felt pride, looking at the American flag?
I don't recall.

Those are all great posters! I especially like the CLINTON legacy one, but they are all really good. I truly admire the dedication of all those who freeped those morons who not only wasted their money to buy Hillary's propaganda, but waited in line to do it!!!

I had a great time. We had up to 20 folks out there at different times taking on close to a thousand Hillary fanatics who started gathering at 6AM. We gave several interviews and had photographers and TV cameras all around us. You saw the AP photo at the top of post #15. Gracey brought her large CLINTON LEGACY:NATIONAL INSECURITY banner and we had lots of great signs.
You saw my pics in post #15. I was trying to get one of Hillary as she drove by waving and smiling at us, but for the some reason my camera didn't turn on(must be a built in protection feature).
I enjoyed the chants the best:
Hillary knew but she could not recall
Hillary for Mayor of Tikrit, Iraq
Hillary and Saddam, now THAT's the ticket
Bill deserves another term
Why do they buy Hillary's book?P.T. Barnum knows
Never trust a Clinton with national security
Hillary brought in cold and windy(20-35MPH) weather, so I favored staying at the corner where the sun was shining. We had several exchanges with the Hillary Fan Club and hopefully, we educated a few of them. I really appreciate The Bat Lady saving the pole position parking lot for me after touring the parking lot and not finding anything even in the 4-story parking garage.
Great Work Heart of Texas FReepers and others who made it out.

Gonzolo Barrientos drove right by us and Glen Maxey walked past us. We had a lot of vehicles go by us. Some gave us the finger, some a thumbs up, and there were several smiles as well.
One man came over near the end of our FReep and asked why we opposed Hillary. Someone mentioned universal health care, so he responded that he didn't have health coverage. He then told us that he was a lawyer, and someone countered that he must not be a very good lawyer. That set him off enough to stop back by later in his Jeep blocking traffic just to talk to us.
There were a few other memorable people, but overall they were much better behaved than the Chicken D and Albuquerque Turkey defenders.

My husband just came in and asked who I was talking to. I told him "The Austin guys. They were freeping Hilary at a book signing today". I continued with " I wish I could have gone but I had to work. Why do I have to work if Hilary doesn't?"
He responded with "because you're not a senator"

Western NY voted 50/50, so we didn't elect Hiplary. And we had NO help from the GOP to change those numbers. Maybe next time they'll realize they could at least take this area.
So tell it to the libs in NY City, huh? Drat it all, you insulted me.

This is absolutely great -- I love the running commentary that makes everyone keep scrolling down to read the next segment and the photos and signs are fantastic. Hillary waved because she didn't see any "Devils" in the crowd!
Bill and Hillary have their schedules down pat. He was in DC at the Brady Gun Control celebration while she was at fundraisers and booksignings on the left coast and in Texas. They have it timed so they almost never have to bump into each other.
I noticed that Hillary went in the back door again today -- Bill did that last night, too.
Great job Heart of Texas Chapter! FReep On!

Please, I meant no offense! You gotta remember we rural-Texas types in the Panhandle haven't a clue about how many people actually live in NYC! (Nor do we understand WHY they even want to live there!)
