So I don’t post much.....that’s my preamble. I was here back in the day where nearly everyone at FreeRepublic followed and believed in ‘quidam,’ a poster who claimed to know much about the Ken Starr investigation of Bill Clinton. We were all led to believe that Starr had serious dirt on Clinton, not an affair with an intern, but serious malfeasance in office. Freepers followed along and were sorely disappointed.

My advice here is that after eight years of one sided liberalism dictated by a guy who didn’t care a whit about any of our beliefs here and in fact ridiculed them, we want a bit of a reckoning. In fact, I believe that too.

So along comes Q and we all want to believe. Some here talk about the tin foil hat and get humiliated. I refuse, since then I’ve become like the Democrats and liberals with their hate for us. Sure there are trolls who want to get under your skin and drive you nuts. It is clearly their intent. Do what you will, but I believe ignoring them is worse than engaging them, since they get not reward for their edginess. As for Q....I want to believe, but after quidam, I just can’t fully commit myself to jumping on board at this point. But I sure hope he’s right.

I just saw Ken Starr on TV on some kind of retrospective. He said they had indictments written up on Bill Clinton and multiple others, but in the end decided not to issue them. Too bad they didn't; could’ve cut off the Clintons earlier.

I don’t remember quidam. But perhaps Ken Starr DID have the goods on the Clintons and quidam knew it, but KS was blackmailed/warned off.

Based on things that are coming out now, that seems a plausible explanation. That would also explain a lot of other odd behavior. Example: John Robert’s suddenly finding that 0vomitcare is a tax and therefore ok.

I think there are a lot of highly placed people with knowledge about how dirty the swamp is, but they are being threatened and/or blackmailed - and the dirty one’s (like Bernie) are being bribed - to shut up and ignore, to do the bidding of the Deep State.

I remember Quidam too, and have often wondered what happened to him.

About Q - there are days when he/they seem trustworthy, and then there are days when I wonder.

Whoever he/they are, there is some good coming out of the effort to untangle the posts, in that more people are following and learning how “fake” news is manipulating reality.

I can’t even watch Fox without feeling like they are a bunch of actors playing journalists, who are reading a script designed to keep us distracted from what is really going on behind the scene they want us to believe.

I have admit, I somehow missed the end of quidam at that time.

Was Ken Starr able to go ahead on his own?

Did quidam lie or did the things he said not come to pass? Very different things.

Knowing what you know now, what else might have been exposed sbout Clinton?

Who else knew and would have wanted to stop it?

Well said. I too remember days ‘quidam’. What a let down. I want everything Q eludes to to be true but wonder if that is the reason I tend to believe.

I’m pretty sure it wasn’t “nearly everyone.” Not even “most.”

Good post and I remember all that as I was here under another username. I do believe the difference between then and now is the fact we have a better understanding where the whole DC apparatus, including the media, is a rigged game.

It's like Sheriff Joe's investigation in to 0bama's life narrative found all kinds of discrepancies but the bottom line was who were you going to take the info to? Much the same Starr/quidam might have had the dirt but who was he going to take it to? The rigged system was not going to come down very hard on the Clintons, no matter what. The game was rigged from the outset.

Now I'm not saying the Q phenomenon will turn out correct but at least we have a President who is not a part of the rigged game in DC. It is highly possible this is the way he is communicating with us to let us know what is happening behind the scenes. There is a little reason to have some hope.

I've done a lot of thinking as to why this should give all conservatives hope but still keep a healthy amount of skepticism:

1. The theme of the information involves the massive corruption in our government and to prepare us for much worse.

2. The Socratic method is getting more and more Americans involved in figure these things out and preparing them to be awakened.

3. The third reason for optimism and this is a big one for conservatives and part of the theme has been about the restoration for our Constitutional Republic.

That's why I have a hard time with fellow conservatives coming here to disrupt and troll when this really hasn't played out completely. We don't know one way or another how this will turn out. So far, the themes and the awakenings have been very good.

Exposing corruption in government, awakening Americans, and moving towards the restoration of our Constitutional Republic should have conservatives here at least cautiously optimistic. So I have to ask what is it hurting these disrupters/trolls to see how this plays out? It's not going to hurt us either way and a plus with more Americans awaken.

Maybe Starr did have serious dirt on Clinton. The Clintons are full of dirty deals. But back in the day, ‘quidam’ didn’t stand a chance against “the powers that be”. People were not as ready to believe, they hadn’t been tyranized as much ( is that a word, tyranized? If not, it should be)

I agree with you about quidam. Quidam and Qanon are both psycops. Quidam failed to produce anything.

Starr clearly had a ton of criminal activities by the Clinton's but chose not to prosecute.

The question is why did they choose not to prosecute?

Who did they have to back them in the prosecution against the Clinton? Not enough support I bet.

As long as Trump is president we may have a better chance this time.
If they fail this time we are simply a banana republic (IE: Corporatist controlled state)

I don't have answers though.
