ABC News ^ | June 24, 2003 | live transcript

DC Chapter stalwart 'kristinn' braved the Good Morning America broadcast and gives us the blow by blow account..

Diane: You are going to be on the New York Times bestseller list slugging it out with Hillary Clinton.

Ann:I hope so.

Diane: Who is going to win?

Ann: Umm, Well I think she has a three to one pound advantage over me, but we will see.

Diane: (stunned silence for a moment as her jaw drops and eyes bug out) Three to one pound advantage? Did you just say what I think you said?

Ann: You said 'slugging it out with Hillary'

Diane: So you are just talking about arm wrestling?

Ann: Yes, if that is your phraseology.

Diane: (Going for the quick interview wrap up) Alright, Ann Coulter. As we've said, if you want your veins to be bulging, your pulse to be pounding and you really want somethng provocative the book is 'Treason' and it is out today. You can go to the ABC News Website if you want to see more about it and read more exerpts. (Diane, still flustered, holds the back of the book to the camera to a national television audience)

Of course, Ann meant that Hillary's book weighs three times as much as hers.

Or had three times the number of authors.

A little teaser on Buddy's soon to be published book, "Living Hell". Not to be copied or distributed for commercial purposes.

Day 1 Arrived at big house. Peed and sniffed around. Met humanoid couple stupid looking male with fake smile and demon looking female. Both smell like rats. They must work here. Note to self, keep an eye on these two. Took a crap near roses. Hope I meet new master soon. Mailed note to mom, Ruth, telling her trip went fine new home is huge. Ate some chow and peed again. Went to sleep.

Day 2 Woke up early and checked the place out. I have come to the shocking conclusion that the creeps I met yesterday live here.
Found male doofus male face down drunk in bathroom and the female was asleep in guest room with Martha Stewart. Note to self, sell all Martha Stewart stock. I peed on drunk guy's head and left the room. Took a crap in room that has no corners. Get banished to small cage. Man this place sux. I hate these people.

Day 3 I get to go out on the lawn with the humanoid couple. Lots of cameras around. The doofus keeps saying here boy. I sit and stare hold tail still. A couple of guys in sunglasses wave a pork chop under my nose and put it in doofus's right front pants pocket. I try to fight it but I cave in. They take 10,000 pictures of me sniffing his dang pocket. Hope mom never sees this.

Day 4 I guess it's day 4. I've been in this tiny cage with no food, no water, or light, but judging by how bad I need to pee and crap I know it's been a day. I really hate it here. This place is a living hell. They did let me take a call today, it was my mom Ruth. She said that everyone in her quilting club was telling her what a bad mom she was to raise a son who would associate with the doofus. Seems the local paper had pic of me sniffing his pocket. It makes me ache that mom's friends think ill of her.

Day ? I really am losing track of time. I've read about sensory deprivation and that is what this seems to be. One of the dark sunglasses guys brought me a laptop PC. He said I could keep my journal on it rather than all these little post it notes. He also took me for a walk. He says that I'm being treated like crap and he wants to be my friend. I wagged my tail and licked his hand. He gives me a dog biscuit. After all the lights go out at night I can hear doofus on the phone. He's talking to a female I think because he keeps saying, "She means nothing to me. Sure I'm getting a divorce as soon as the press leaves me alone on this Monica thing. No all that Lewinski crap is a fabrication. I love only you Linda." I smell cigar smoke all the time. Cheap cigars at that.

I don't know what time of day or time of year it is anymore. The darksunglasses guy came this morning and took me for a walk. While we were walking the demon looking female came up to us screaming, "Put that mut back in the tank, he's been a bad boy." The darksunglasses guy tries to tell her that I'm a good dog that needs attention. To that she screams, "I'll get you off this detail with one phone call so pack your crap you useless civil servant." He reaches into his jacket and brings out a biscuit, gives it to me and walks away with his head down. I walk over to demon and pee on her leg then trot to the nearest darksunglasses guy. Back to the dungeon.

I really think I'd go insane without this laptop PC. It gives me a place to escape and a place to record all I hear around here. At night I hear whispered conversations about someone called Vince Foster and how they will never prove it was sewerside. I hear murmurs of something called Algore being a shoe in in 2000 because of some promise with AARP to get whiners out enmasse if it looks like the erection is going in the Bush. I hear doofus on the phone with some guy named NRon promising "for a little scratch I'll keep the SEC off while you write your cookbook?" I'd like a little scratch myself but why would the South Eastern Conference care about food preparation? I here similar calls to something at WorldCom and Imclown all the time. These people just don't make sense.

Dont forget the morning sausage for The Queens huge thighs!

[Archie Bunker on steroids]

Hell....maybe if I took the time to read a little I wouldn't repeat your post.

Maybe its just a condition common in liberal women. I work with two of them and both have that bug eyed look.

[ewing]

Great post, sounds like the former Buddy the dog could have potentially been a ghostwriter for the Sinator!

[Kozak]

I"ve been waiting for the official rollout of the book to buy MY copy, my mom's copy, my sisters copy and one for the office bookshelf.

EVERY conservative needs AT LEAST 2 copies....

[MattinNJ]

ROTFLMAO

[abner]

I"ve been waiting for the official rollout of the book to buy MY copy, my mom's copy, my sisters copy and one for the office bookshelf. EVERY conservative needs AT LEAST 2 copies....

I just bought 3 copies. One for me, one for my son and one for my mom.

[ewing]

My pulse is pounding and I am only looking at the cover!

[1Old Pro]

The Sinator probably spat up her morning toast and OJ when she heard that..

I can only hope Rudy Guiliani becomes a dragon slayer and runs against the sinator.

[ewing]

So Diane held the cover of the book the wrong way on purpose?

[Clint N. Suhks]

As we've said, if you want your veins to be bulging, your pulse to be pounding and you really want something provocative the book is 'Treason' and it is out today.

Only if you're a liberal...but nice parting cheap shot from Diane, she never fails to disappoint.

[steplock]

For whatever good it does... FREEP Diane Sawyer!

I think Annie was making a sly comment about Hillarys book being 3 times heavier by weight but Diane Sawyer was too dull to pick it up..

[Conspiracy Guy]

Buddy was a special dog who endured much. His writing would have been lost when his laptop was burned had he not sent Ruth, his mom, the whole thing in email the day before he was murdered. When I read the forward I cry.

Debating issues doesn't necessarily sell books. Hype does.

O.K., but does this really count as "hype"? Anyone unknowing of the book, is still unknowing.

This comment probably did little to increase book sales - though it was funny.
