I was finishing my outprocessing for the US Army and was in DC doing my paperwork. I was out on the mall and saw a large family protesting abortion and got into a very long conversation with the parents and their 10 children. While the speakers were speaking, a man in a fedora stood next to me and we got into a conversation about leaving the military. He opined that he hoped I was not leaving because of Clinton.
I had no idea he was Matt Drudge. I also had no idea who Matt Drudge was at that time. (Spent a lot of time in the field and overseas).
As I walked up to the gathering, Drudge pulled me aside for a brief interview. His Saturday evening show had only been on for a few weeks. It was a great day for Freerepublic.
Thanks for the memories.
