Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton has signed her book, "Living History," for "probably 10,000 people by now," she said Thursday, calling the response "extraordinary." "Some have already read the book and loved it," she said by phone from Washington, "or they've related to parts of it, or they support me politically, or they think this is a way to meet me."

Friday night at 7, the former first lady appears at Huntington's Book Revue to sign books. "I try to at least look at people," she said. "I give people five or six or seven seconds to say something. Some are tongue-tied, some have a whole speech prepared, some give me letters."

She's surprised, she said, that "I have not had more" negative comments, though she always has a few protesters "who show up at everything I do. ... There's one man in a devil costume. He's been following me for three years. Maybe he'll show up in Huntington."

Next thing she'll say little green men from Mars take her to visit Eleanor Roosevelt on the weekends.

Glad she's noticed.

Five or six seconds, eh? What a caring individual.... /s

"He's been following me for three years. Maybe he'll show up in Huntington."

And yet another lie. For pity sake. He's been following her for more than three years. She was just leaving with all the silverware from the WH 3 years ago.......

Nice of Newsday, the Pravda of Hempstead, to give Hillary some nice advance publicity for her book signing. How this is "news" fit for a newspaper to print is interesting to ponder, but since I don't believe a word they print, it's neither here nor there.

The woman really shouldn't be allowed to do interviews YOU KNOW! She doesn't know how to relate to the "little people" and it shows!

The devil is out to get ya Hillary! LOL! How proud the DC freepers must be!

The people who would give her the negative comments won't spend the money to buy her book or waste time in line for an autograph.

"I give people five or six or seven seconds to say something.

Queen Hillary giving people a little time to fawn over her greatness. I am beginning to wonder which Clinton has the bigger ego.

for "probably 10,000 people by now

huh, I didn't know she had that many people working for her....

"I try to at least look at people," she said.

I'm really touched by her nobility and respect for common humanity. Geez, Her Majesty deigns to at least look at people. What a gal. And her critics call her frosty and condescending!?! /sarcasm

Ahem...

Please FReepmail me if you want on or off my infrequent ‘miscellaneous’ ping list.

[Paul Atreides]

Gimme an F!

Gimme a U!

[TheEaglehasLanded]

The devil is just admiring the work of one of his home's future inhabitants.

[ILBBACH]

And what, exactly, is wrong with little green men from Mars?!

[Howlin]

He's been following me for three years.

She's lying again. She damn well knows it's been longer than that.

She's surprised, she said, that "I have not had more" negative comments

She needs to go on another "listening tour."

[Howlin]

LOL!

[TontoKowalski]

Huntington? Isn't that the home of the infamous Greg Packer? I wonder if we'll see any quotes by him in the Times?

[Fred Mertz]

Who is that devil?

[Howlin]

She doesn't know how to relate to the "little people" and it shows!

She once actually said that you could tell a person's economic position by looking at the teeth.

Snotty bitch.
