For you relative newbies, here's a brief video on the (almost) first anniversary of Freeping, highlighting the inimitable and greatly missed Dr. Raoul and others.

I was just trying to remember her name. Thanks. I hated her posts because of all those graphics. They were a bitch on dialup.

Another member of the Class of ‘98. I joined the day after Clinton’s impeachment IIRC, after lurking since just after the black background.

I actually got to meet Drudge at the Impeach Clinton rally in front of the White House in 1998. We were talking about the military and my upcoming retirement from the US Army.

Had no idea who the guy with the hat was. Just thought he was another bystander like me.

I remember him, died of cancer I believe. It was very sad he fought it to the very end.

I loved Registered’s “History of Free Republic”

Miss Hobbit Holes and Carlos’s cookbook.

It has been many moons. We were indeed the precursor to the Tea Party.

I was recently reminded by a very early Freeper that Jim Rob organized a group in October 1998 that went to the DC Mall and demanded Clinton be impeached. Without that demonstration, some say the impeachment would never have happened.
Representative Henry Hyde, stated the Oct 31, 1998 FR "March for Justice" empowered the House Managers to vote for Impeachment. Don't remember if it was at the FR House Managers dinner or an aside on CSPAN.
