Hillary Clinton's 'History' makes history at bookstore (FReepers mentioned)

"What a pretty dress," she said to a little girl in a long gold and black velvet gown. The child said her name was Chelsea, like Clinton's daughter. "You're kidding!" Clinton said. "How do you spell it?"

I hope this poor girl whose parents were child-abusing her wasn't a Cleveland Public School student. The question could have been embarrasing.

It would have been more appropriate if her name had been "Gretl".

....... but I think there are a lot of curiousity seekers who will not keep book... but will read part or all of it before e-baying, garage selling, door stopping etc

I wonder if it has occurred to the publisher to print copies on toilet paper, once we've reached the paperback/remainder bin stage. They can claim higher sales numbers, and the sensible-but-curious can read it while still making a "statement". >:)

Our Hastings had it on special at 50% off this week. I don't know hao many they got stuck with. I was in Sam's, and had to look. The copies of Treason are 4th printing, hill's were still 1st printing.

The week Living History was released, a friend of mine saw it in the discount bin at the local supermarket.

Precisely.

In order to be a groupie or person devoted to someone in a position of power or celebrity some quantifiable product has to be offered in return for your enthusiasm. Be it a backstage pass to roll the dice on rubbing uglies with a celebrity, or a photograph of a politician alongside yourself to elevate your clout in the business world, or ten minutes over "Coffee" to seek special legislation to your benefit. Nobody just has blind admiration for anyone in this country.

The people at these book signings are NEA teachers (curious her book release matches the teachers off for the summer break calander), Federal and state social workers firming up their future paychecks, and organized AFSCME and other union efforts. None of them have any real interest in anything but their own financial interests and their expanded earnings power ushered in with a Hillary administration.

And may I fairly add, we conservatives aim to get what we want for reasons less than pure good. We want more of our own money, less taxes, more better jobs, industrial growth, a reduced government, and so on......All of those things are for our own personal benefit. That's much of what we invest in being conservatives.

Sure there is abortion, and a few other pure good issues, but when you really boil those down, there is not much party difference in actuality. Just as many "conservative" women have abortions as liberal women do. If not, it's more.

"Doesn't remember how to spell her own daughter's name...... "

Of course she doesn't know how to spell it. Web Hubble, I mean Chelsea's dad picked the name.
