My $.02...The FR Oct 1998 "March For Justice" was FR's finest hour. >4,000 of Freepers assembling/marching/protesting against the 'crimes' of Clinton. The Speakers..our Jim Robinson, Alan Keyes, Larry Klayman, John Armour (Freeper...Congressman Billybob) Rep Ken Barr, Ann Coulter, Gary Aldrich, et al (all on C-SPAN tape). Onsite interviews conducted by Matt Drudge, Lucianne Goldberg, Jonah Goldberg.
IIRC...Rep Henry Hyde stated (House Managers Dinner) that that event, that protest emboldened the House Managers for forwarding Impeachment (indictment).
