I was a Lurker then, not yet a FReeper.
Went to the March, met a huge group of like-minded Conservatives, who were in WDC on their own nickle, and the rest is history!
Became a FReeper 2 days later - I have no idea why I waited so long!
And, the Washington, DC Chapter of FRee Republic became my family until I left DC in Feb 2004 to look after my late mother here in Jacksonville.
Great people! Great times! Great FReeps!
Kristinn, you should write a book about that era!
A most excellent AAR, MosesKnows!
You certainly captured the significance of the March!
Thank you!
Thanks for the memories!
And the URL for that tape! I started watching it, and the first thing I noticed was that Clinton’s a Liar was a lot younger then!
Taxman Bravo Zulu for a great find!
Ahhhh!
Those WERE the days, weren’t they?
Hope all is well with you and yours!
Happy Thanksgiving!
“Afterwards Freepers left the march and rally areas clean.”
I attended many FReeps in the DC area between the March for Justice and Feb 2004 when I had to move to Jacksonville, and I will tell you that we FReepers ALWAYS left the rally areas cleaner than we found them.
We also thanked the Park Police and the WDC Police for being there for us!
FRicking LIEberals ALWAYS trashed their locations - made NO effort to clean up after themselves!
I could go on a super-long anti-LIEberal rant, but won’t. Gotta keep the good vibrations going and upbeat!
Anywhere FReepers gather, in person, on line, at a Rally, whatever, does not matter: We are FREEPING!
Exactly.
One FReeper FReeping is a FReep.

We be FReeping!
Hello, there, fellow Class of ‘98er!
A most warm and happy Thanksgiving to your and your family as well!
Could it really be 20 years?
Very cool! Started out with Gary Aldrich, who wrote “Unlimited Access”...a book that not only sounds completely factual in tone with all we know now about the Clintons, but probably portrays them in a more accurate light than any book about them since written.
Thanks you very much, Ma’am!
Yup, 20 years and 19 days for me. Seems like yesterday!
I’ll have a warmer Turkey Day than you, sweetie!
But, HST, here is a most warm and happy Thanksgiving to your and your family backatcha!
You must be thinking of Exit148.
I’m a guy.
Yes—I’m a girl, or at least female!!
That March for Justice was a day to remember. I had been a FReeper for only a few months, and being there with all of you was like
being with strangers who were all my friends! I had NJ flag and was proud to carry it with all of you from all over the country. Made many friends!!
And yes, I remember when cleaning the area after the march ended, the police were amazed at what we were doing. They said the place was never so clean. But — that is what we were like.
It was the start of many trips to DC to protest Clinton with so many of you. Names that have remained familiar over the years. I think we made a mark and caught the attention of many big names. At one reception we were at, I was talking with Gary Aldrich and he said what we were doing was new to conservatives. And he was very pleased.
Thank you JimRob for Free Republic!
And while I am here, how about a donation to help JimRob end the FReepathon? What would we do without FRee Republic..
Old age and senility have caught up with me, fer shure, fer shure!
So, let me get this straight: you are a Delaware GUY at Exit 82 and she is a NYJ GAL at exit 148?
I got it!
Thanks, and sorry for the confusion! It was, after all, a long time ago!
LOL!
Yeah, 20 years ago when I joined FR I lived off Exit 82 of the Garden State Parkway in NJ.
Moved to southern, conservative DE 12 years ago.
In spite of the various posts, I still can’t remember who is who.
That was a good move, I expect!
Nor can I, it would appear. But it is neat to be able to read these posts and try to put faces with handles!
Thank you.
