The guy wearing the devil costume out on Pennsylvania Avenue yesterday was adamant.

"Enter the bookstore and take two steps down — morally and socially," he hollered into a bullhorn.

The mannerly crowd outside Trover Shop Books on Capitol Hill gazed back at him, clutching precious orange vouchers that proved they had already paid for "Living History," Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton's new memoir.

Well, we could just sing "ding dong the witch is dead"...but then, that's not true (unfortunately) and well, we might be viewed as REALLY radical extremists forumlating a plot of murder, and I don't want to be put in the same class as the Clintoons. :oP

This article appeared in the Washington Times today on page 4. It is accompanied by a photo of the guy in the devil costume and clearly shows his sign: HILLARY, NO PARDON ON OUR DEAL! The message was hard to miss.

The DC Chapter protest garnered the first five paragraphs of the article and one of the last three paragraphs where the devil's other message was reported: I SOLD MY SOUL TO HILLARY. We got our points across.

The protesting left used to own the streets and the use of street theatre tactics. We have been using costumes, wit, sarcasm, chants, facts, and spirited debates effectively since 1998. When those on the left can't fight the facts and win debates, they always fall back on insults, curses, hand gestures and the politics of personal destruction against their perceived enemies or opponents.

I don't believe those on the left really think we look silly or stupid; I do believe that they are furious that we are using their tactics to such advantage against them while being effective and having a great deal of fun at the same time.

Frankly, I'd rather walk three blocks up the street and see the Cubs than see Hillary, too.

Any extra tickets?

I just had a TERRIBLE thought.....what if Hitlary is throwing out the first pitch at the Cubs game????? OMG...we have to find out....we need to be there to initate the boos!!!! It is rather close.....

On another note, I told my daughters about going to FReep the Hildabeast and they are really excited and ready to draw their signs up. :o)

FF said he'd rather go to the Cubs Game than FReep Hitlary with us....and I said Wrigley Field is really close to where we're going to be, and then it gave me a daynightmare that she might be going to Wrigley and throwing out the first pitch.

From the looks of her schedule..My guess it is a morning event because she has a book signing in California later that same day! She has gotta leave ASAP.
