Partial Transcript From Leno: Hillary on Being Freeped at Living History Book Signings
Monday, August 1, 2003 | Kristinn

Posted on 08/04/2003 10:54:16 PM PDT by kristinn

Three years ago this summer when Hillary Clinton was running for the Senate as a, ahem, New Yorker, she appeared on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno. She talked about some guy in a devil suit following her around New York (our very own Doctor Raoul, in fact.)

In current interviews, she's still talking about the devil following her around at the book signings for her memoir, Living History.

Mrs. Clinton was on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno again tonight. Jay opened the interview asking how her book tour was going:

J: It's good to see you!

H: Thank you, I'm glad to be here.

J: You look very happy, you seem happy, are you, is like a happy time now?

H: Jay, it is, it's a very happy time--no it is! (Makes googoo eyes while touching Jay on the arm.) I'm having a great time. I love, you know, my work in the Senate. I love living in New York and representing New York and I'm having a great time going around the country on this book tour. I've met so many fabulous people. Yeah, I mean, I think probably in the last two months about twenty-seven thousand people have to come see me at these book signings.

J: So you've signed, your hand, um you should have one arm like this shouldn't you? (Jay holds up clawed hand and bent arm indicating carpal tunnel, Hillary does the same.)

H: Well, you know, it's such an invigorating experience. It's just this part of my body (holds wrist) from my wrist down that gets really worn out. But people have been terrific. They, you know, they come through the line, they have stories. They tell me this is the first book they've ever bought, or they bring their daughters to meet me.

J: That's not good is it?

H: No I think it's wonderful (Hillary makes googoo eyes at Jay and touches him on the arm again.)

J: No but I mean if they're an adult and this is the first book, oooo, I mean doesn't that say something about our educational system?

H: Well it might say something about, about their income. You know, I mean, cuz books to alot of people are a luxury. You know, maybe they go to the library instead. But they've been so, people have been so enthusiastic and they come through and, you know, and say things like, you know, I played pinochle, too, as a kid, you know. Or I loved your stories about going to South Asia because that's where I'm from. I mean it's just, it's been a great experience.

J: Well how about like, cuz whenever any political person, and especially you show up, there's always the crazy people. I mean there must be that one sort of guy who waits in line because he wants to say something nasty when he gets up. And he's actually bought a book so he can give his, I mean, does, has that happen, do you fear that?

H: That hasn't happened yet.

J: Oh, okay.

H: That hasn't happened yet. But what has happened is that they can't bring themselves to buy the book so they stand out, across the street yelling at me (Hillary gestures outward)

J: Laughs

H: That's fine, that's all part of the First Amendment and everything. But they don't, they don't actually buy the book and come through to yell at me.

J: Okay, so they're not that committed.

H: Not that committed. No, I think they're sorta lukewarm about it after all

J: For most it would be the first book they've ever bought.

H: Or read. (Hillary beams, she made a funny!)

"...books to alot of people are a luxury..."

Sure, like here in eastern WV where we just finished having a 3-day long book sale (sponsored at our mall by local newspaper of donated books, all sales to charity) where paperbacks were 25¢, hardbacks were $1 and hardbacks with dustjacket were $2. And these weren't just old junk books either. I picked-up Deriliction of Duty, Spin Cycle, At Any Cost, No One Left To Lie To, Rush Limbaugh, and two Stephen King hardbacks, among others at these give-away prices.

And if any lefty liberals still think those prices are too high, they're invited to attend any of our many local yard/garage sales or auctions this summer. Books there can be had for as little as several dollars for a boxload.

Luxury my ass. HILDABEAST IS A PATHOLOGICAL LIAR!!

BUMP.

I picked up a Grisham book this weekend for a buck. And a couple of old baseball books from 1944 and 1947. Lots of good pictures in one of them. Made my day! I'm enjoying the book. It's called "The Street Lawyer."

Not that committed? Not that committed!?
The devil seems to follow her everywhere she goes. (Obviously because she's his bride on earth)
She's only been FReeped at every book signing that I can think of in the USA.
Why on earth she thinks that someone that is against her would add to her cash reserves by buying her book is beyond me.

I usually like Leno, but he did some major sucking up on this one. He carried on like her book is authentic and truthful; I'll bet he knows better.

My guess is this was skillfully, subtly, encoded in her Terms of Appearance.

You know, she appears to be so desperate to get people to buy her book that she has actually encouraged us to purchase a copy so we can sneer at her in person. I felt she was taunting us to do it.

Otherwise we are "lukewarm".

Does anyone feel up to the challenge?

I just wish there was some way to sneak video in to get the confrontation live ... but unfortunately I think the rules for the signings don't allow photography.

Am I right?

Maybe we could rent a glasses-cam or something similar? Bribe an employee to let us put a remote controlled webcam on a bookshelf? Lots of possibilities ... but I suppose the Secret Service wouldn't wear it, darn.

Thoughts?

That was a good book. I read it. I liked the movie and the TV series, even if Susan Sarandon was the main character. It was still good.

If books are a LUXURY, why can you buy them in any supermarket? Why are bookstores like Barnes and Noble so popular? What does Amazon.com sell? Come on, Hillary, the only reason those people are saying that is because DEMOCRATS CAN'T READ!!!!!!!!!!!!

(glances around at overflowing six-foot shelves, both overflowing three-foot shelves, thinks guiltily of the pile-o-books in the living room)

Suuuure. None of us evil conservatives ever pick up a book. All mine are for decoration. Also to keep the apartment from blowing away in a high wind.

Good luck, Portland FReepers!!!

Will be awaiting your after-action report (to add to the Hillapalooza Book Tour archives).

The left coast is not going to be as easy a sell as Hillary! thought, thanks to the hard work of many California, Washington and Oregon FReepers.

(I know I missed pinging a bunch of involved FReepers... my memory is slipping... apologies to those I forgot.)

FReep on!!

Yeah, it tells me they are all illiterate illegal aliens that Hill's shills pull out of the barrio and give them $5 and a clean shirt to stand in line to receive her book (courtesy of the DNC, of course).

If they find any illegals who DO know how to read and write, they stuff them into a closed container and haul it out into the desert just south of the border.

And this crap is what deludes her elitist ego into thinking that the electorate are morons, unable to manage their pathetic, uneducated lives without her. Get used to it Hil--hell is going to be an eternity of common people wanting to tell mundane stories and begging your autograph. Poetic Justice awaits.

Bones: Yes, and on behalf of the "poor downtrodden minorities", we'd like to thank massa' so much!

Miss Clinton, ya' got such purdy books. Can I git' one with yer' autograph?

I'm so happy yer' my massa!

I'm so dumb that I need you my massa' to help git me up and pay me $6.75 an hour.

Thank you so much Miss Hillary!

I'm just a dumb ol' farm boy who ain't never seen no book or read 'un !
