I assume that if this week's project is successful, you'll be off for a couple of weeks?

[hellinahandcart]

This is a very long-term project. Phase One sure is a lot of work, though. ;D

[JLO]

Thanks as always to all of you who get out there! I immensely enjoy the after-freep posts and pics. Wish I could be there, joining in.

I also enjoyed watching you on Fox news today, Kristinn, and of course, I didn't see any protesters on mainstream channels.

[kristinn]

Thanks for posting that. It's good advice, isn't it?

[kristinn]

There's a huge difference between carrying a sign that says "Bill Clinton's an Asshole" and the Osama sign. I'm sorry you're still carrying a grudge three years on.

[Cyber Liberty]

I'll always carry a grudge against snobs who treat good, hard-working people like teeny-tiny children, then go out and defy their own preaching. No, there is not much of a difference between Dasshole and Piece of Ass, at least not to unsuspecting pedestrians in the city.

You, yourself have done a pretty good job of proving that you think any demonstration you're not involved in is vastly inferior to your own self-greatness. Once in a while, I still peruse the FRiva report thread to pick up your pieces of wit. Manoman you hate FRN!

The day you apologize to Brat, and she accepts, I might start thinking of you as a regular person.

[kristinn]

I'm sorry for hurting Brat's feeling. That wasn't my intention.

You want to call me a hypocrite, fine. I'm not going to change your mind on this. But there is a difference.

Clinton apologist Joe Conason said, "He's a horse's ass" about Raoul to a group taking pictures.

I am curious about one thing - how does a snake wear kneepads? Conason's about the only one I know who can pull that off.

[Cyber Liberty]

Oh, I see a difference all right. Your sign was put out for thousands to see, and ours was out in the desert just for McCain and Daschle to see.

But we will never see eye-to-eye on the fine points of protesting. You're just wayyyyyyyy too smart for this cowtown desert rat from flyover country.

I made the Chicago Tribune and the New York Sun, plus a blog put up by one of the people who stopped to talk to us.

[firebrand]

You go, girl!

[Cyber Liberty]

Whoohoo! Way to GO!

I hope they spelled your name correctly. Always make sure of that....

[AlwaysFree]

GREAT JOB!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You guys are fantastic.

[firebrand]

They did. The Tribune truncated my quote so that it was fairly meaningless, but Alicia Colon in the Sun did me justice!

[Sabertooth]

Outside the museum, two FReepers (Doctor Raoul and firebrand) stood across the street greeting the celebrants with this reminder: a large sign that said, "IF OSAMA WAS A PIECE OF ASS, CLINTON WOULD HAVE NAILED HIM.

"If Osama was an intern..." might have gotten more play in the mainstream.

Ain't that the point?

[Sabertooth]

Once in a while, I still peruse the FRiva report thread to pick up your pieces of wit.
Manoman you hate FRN!

Haven't read those reports. What's to like about the FRN?

[Cyber Liberty]

A better question would be, "What's to hate?"

[firebrand]

Under the headline "Clinton supporters throng bookstores as memoir hits shelves," yesterday I was in the Kansas City Star, the Chicago Tribune, the Columbus (Georgia) Ledger-Enquirer, the San Luis Obispo (California) Tribune, the Biloxi (Mississippi) Sun Herald, the Macon (Georgia) Telegraph, the Myrtle Beach (South Carolina) Sun News, the Bradenton (Florida) Herald, and the Pioneer Press (Minnesota).

Plus Alicia Colon in the New York Sun did a cute little paragraph about my sign, also yesterday. Unfortunately, the Midwest reporter cut my quote in the middle so that it sounds inane. The quote went on to say that probably most of the people in line were planning to sell their books on e-Bay.
