I would like to apologise for taking so long to write this report and getting the video out. I was trying out new video compression software which wound out being quite a bit more difficult to use than I'd hoped :-(. In addition, I've been swamped preparing for my trip to Rio which starts today.

As many of you may remember, I dropped my Canon XL1 MiniDV camcorder on Friday while attending thte Century City Freep. You will be pleased to hear that the camera has now been repaired and looks like it's running better than ever! It's going to Brazil with me after all; I am relieved!

***HOLLYWOOD RESISTANCE FORCE: HILLARY FREEP REPORT***
LA CHAPTER | 6/29/03 | Diotima
Posted on 06/29/2003 7:52 PM PDT by diotima

Hillary came to the Los Angeles area to shill her wanna-be best seller, the one with over 20 billion copies produced on the first run.

Waiting outside Vroman bookstore today, was the cream of the crop of mindless liberal sheep.

It was a sight to behold...

As I posted previously:
...HERE is a short excerpt from the [Vast Right Wing] L.A. Times:
Clinton Draws Long Line, Short Tempers
*Not all the 1,000 fans who show up for the Pasadena book signing get to meet or see her.

-- snip --

...But at Vroman's, with 800 copies available and a two-book limit per person, nearly half of the crowd did not make it inside for the signing.

As hours passed and the line stretched, some in the crowd that had started out like a friendly "tailgate party," as one woman described it, turned nasty.

"It's a madhouse. I'm irate," said Edmund Urquiza, 37, of Burbank, who staked his spot in line at 6 a.m., but left at 1:30 p.m. without a signed copy...

Sen. Hillary Clinton helps launch L.A. medical research center
Sunday June 29, 2003

By SANDRA MARQUEZ
Associated Press Writer

LOS ANGELES (AP) Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton said she likes playing a game when she reads the morning paper, distinguishing between the "scandal du jour" and the "trendlines" that will make the world a better place.

The dedication Sunday of the Saban Research Center, an 88,500-square-foot state-of-the-art research facility at the Children's Hospital Los Angeles, was such and event, Clinton told a gathering of philanthropists, scientists and doctors...

-- snip --

...Stepping up to the microphone after a shower of accolades, the Sabans, who made headlines last year for making a $7 million donation to the Democratic National Committee, shared their personal connection to the public hospital...

NOW we know why the Hildabeast abandoned HUNDREDS of her "little people" in Pasadena so abruptly...
"Power to the people?"

David,

Great video! You cought the essence of the cheerful fun on the FReeper side, and a hint of the miserable nastyness of the opposition.

I particularly liked the guy who stopped to argue with you. What a character!

We actually had TWELVE FReepers and FRiends at this event, if you also count Marline, the "opera singer" - who is seen in the group picture (posted aboove) - giving me her contact information...
...which was a respectable turnout, considering that "Hillary! the Heathen" chose to arrive early on a SUNDAY MORNING...
...AND, we also just came off of an exhausting MAJOR FReep two days earlier:

FREEP REPORT: Century City "Thank GOD it's W" after-action report
amazing.com [my web site] ^ | 06/28/2003 | David H Dennis
Posted on 06/28/2003 11:30 PM PDT by daviddennis

In the early evening of the 27th of June 2003, Freepers gathered in Century City, near the Century Plaza Hotel, to express support for President Bush, his liberation of Iraq, and other issues.

Freepers came out in force - at its peak, we had a few hundred people enthusiastically waving signs, banners and - most of all - American flags...

[Here we are, from across the street]

From the RATs' own website, at www.la.indymedia.org:

It is truly a sad commentary on the state of Los Angeles media that the ultra-left indymedia.org is more "fair and balanced" than the "mainstream media" here...

My best guess is that WE had about a hundred or two, and THEY had about a thousand or two.
More in an after action report by one of my fellow FReepers - soon...

Way to go, guys! I did a spontaneous mouse-freep yesterday, I guess you could call it. I was in the book section of Walmart, confirming that Coulter's book wasn't there, wondering if perhaps I might one day sneak little notes in Hellery's book... well wondering, ok? As luck would have it, a lady came up and picked up a Hellery book. She was what one might expect of a Hellery koolaid drinker: drab, slow, depressed-looking.

I told her, "Did you know that Hillary's husband pardoned bomb terrorists for votes?"

She looked at me as though I were a lunatic and didn't say a word. As she walked off I said, "They were members of the FALN."

She sped up a little.

Sure, she's so ill informed I'm sure she thinks I'm a crack pot. But when she gripes about me to others, hehehe. Someone might set her straight.


Anyway, good work, guys!

FReegards....

For those unfrotunate FReepers with SLOW Internet connections, you could DOWNLOAD the file to your hard drive, and then play it from there.
For the traditional "PC/Internet Explorer"-types, this means that you RIGHT CLICK on the link below:
http://www.amazing.com/politics/freeping/2003-06-29/hillary-2003-06.mov
Then click on "Save Target As" - and choose where you want it to go.
(Perhaps in "My Downloads" - or WHEREVER you would like it to be.)
Later, you can open that file - which is now stored on YOUR hard drive - whenever you want to, using the QuickTime software - which you can download (for FREE) from Apple.
(I hope that this helps SOME of you.)

Excellent use of video. I would love to know what you did to compress this so small, as i would like to use it for FReeper reports myself.

Great job!

Hey David why don't you arrange a public showing. If they kick you out of a hotel lobby you can take it to a legislative office and...............on second thought, never mind.
