Time: Sunday, June 29, 2003 11:00 AM Title of Event: SENATOR HILLARY RODHAM CLINTON with her book Living History For event details follow link above. Bookstore is located at 695 E. Colorado Blvd Pasadena, CA 91101
The signing is limited to 850 people if I remember the article in the newspaper correctly. Since this is a very liberal community you can expect a crowd bigger than 850 and the press to cover it. Nice FREEP opportunity for those so inclined.
Veromans an excellent local bookstore (one of my favorites) and worth spending $$$ in despite this event.
Shes probably also making stops at other major bookstores here in the Los Angeles area on both Saturday and Sunday but I havent heard where theyll be. I checked Barnes and Nobel book stores by event for all of California and she doesnt show up. I also checked the Book Soup website since thats one of the favorites of the liberals and Duttons Brentwood and shes not scheduled there..
I also checked Borders Bookstores nationwide and only came up with this listing Living History

Broad Suite 100 Philadelphia, PA Phone:215.568.7400 http://www.bordersstores.com/events/events.jsp?view=1&storeID=21 I guess those who live close to Philadelphia can stop by and make her feel welcome and maybe get a little media attention .
Yeaaaaa for Vromans!

Mark your calendars!The GOOD, and the BAD/UGLY are apparentlyBOTH coming to southern California this month!1 - We still do not yet have OFFICIAL confirmation ofPresident Bush's visit to Century City on FRIDAY afternoon/evening (6/27) at 6 pm - but UNOFFICIALLY, we are confident that he will be there, and that security will be INTENSE.More details soon, when we find out where the Secret Service wants US to gather, and where they want the "bad guys."2 - Hillary Clinton WILL be at Vroman's in Pasadena on SUNDAY morning (6/29) at 11 am.We have not yet determined exactly how to "welcome" the junior Senator from New York to our fine state of California, but I am certain that we will think of SOMETHING...For more information, see the threads on Free Republic (where ELSE?) :[but FReepers (and friends) will be there to counter them, and support the President]

I talked with the staff at Vroman's, and it appears that they intend to:
- open the REAR doors at 8:30 amAll of the above is on their PRIVATE property, however, so we will NOT be able to FReep them there, but the line will almost certainly extend towards the FRONT of the store, through the walkway between the side of their building and the Laemelle Playhouse 7 next door - where they will not be able to escape SEEING us, and HEARING us. :o).
- give each Hillary! sheep a receipt for however many books they buy
- send them outside to wait in line until 11 am.
I will talk with the Pasadena police department tomorrow to confirm this, but it appears that we will be able to assemble on the PUBLIC sidewalk directly in front of the store, on Colorado Boulevard - VERY CLOSE to the sheep line.Target even has a small food court where we can meet for the post-FReep fellowship and after-action review.I will be arriving before all but the most ambitious of the sheep, but suggest that the BULK of our forces plan to be there at 10 am, and stay until the Hildabeast leaves - at around 1 pm.Rather than park in the Vroman's parking lot (behind their store) - where the sheep will be, I recommennd that we park in the HUGE parking structure about one block east of Vroman's - behind the Target store, which is located at the northeast corner Oak Knoll and Colorado.

"...Linda Urban, promotional director at Vroman's Bookstore in Pasadena, where Sen. Clinton is scheduled to sign her book on June 29, said her store has had to stop taking advance orders for signed copies of "Living History.""We've already had 500 requests for signed books, more than I can remember and I've been doing this for 8 1/2 years," she said. "We had 7,000 people turn up for Howard Stern's book signing and we only had 100 book requests before that event..."

Hillary's fans hardly went past the corner at her opening in Manhattan. Stern's fans filled the entie block, in the street and the cops had to shut down traffic.
Actually, it seems that she expects 35,000 sheeple to bow before the Queen, since HRC is apparently FIVE TIMES more popular than Howard Stern, based upon pre-signing book requests.The only person more surprised at the event will be the one who is expecting Hillary to read from her book!
She didn't even WRITE most of it...See also:
From the [Vast Right Wing] San Francisco Chronicle (!):
Hillary's more wonk than writer
David Kipen, Chronicle Book CriticThursday, June 12, 2003
Nobody scouring Hillary Clinton's cautious but admirable new memoir for revelations appears to have stuck around for the acknowledgments.On page 529, Clinton somewhat shockingly identifies her longtime right arm, Lissa Muscatine, as "[r]esponsible for many of the words in my speeches as first lady and in this book."
How's that again? Responsible for many of the words... ...in this book? If somebody else was responsible for many of the words, then what exactly was Clinton responsible for? The pictures? The typesetting? Hiring Lissa Muscatine?
Maybe in a culture where policy assistants routinely ghostwrite not just their bosses' speeches but even their signed op-ed pieces, where lazy pundits ridicule plagiarists for stealing other people's words but seem to think buying other people's words is standard operating procedure, this sort of thing flies.
Certainly, Clinton wouldn't be the first person to staff out part, or even all, of her autobiography. But for anybody still naive enough to consider written language the purest, unfudgeable fingerprint of a human soul, the admission rankles.
Whoever really wrote "Living History," it's not exactly a knock on Clinton to observe that the book reads as if written by a committee...
