Borders ran out of his "The Assassin: A Novel" before Col. North and Neil Cavuto arrived. Then, about 45 minutes later, before they arrived , the store announced that they had more copies of his book to sell.
Neil Cavuto was the primary speaker, when they arrived. He apologized for arriving late, and then Col North said a few words. Neil said they needed to start signing books and Col. North waived me over to the table to start the signings.
I was the first to have my books signed by Col. Oliver L. North. I was extremely honored to shake his hand and thank him for his service. The news camera was there and there were more people than I could count, buying his book.
As I walked away from Oliver North's table, I noticed three 'Useful Idiots' with small signs taped to their chest and back. They were quiet and skillfully placed to be a backdrop for the camera.
Someone later said that they were paid to show up at this event. They also said that they told the camera man that he needed pictures of the numerous military personnel in uniform getting their books signed by Col North, and that their choosing demonstrators as a backdrop was why that CBS, ABC, and NBC wasn't allowed on their home TVs (banned through family profiles on cable or satellite preferences). They said that they asked the camera man what his company's ratings were compared to FOX, but the camera man didn't answer. Well, a great time was had by all, and I was really surprised how tall and large Mr. Cavuto was, but both men were very polite, and very engaging with the crowd.
Ya'll should've been there. But there will be other book signings.
