May you have 21 more years.
Good morning, exit.
Thank you both.
Those early years on FR (I started reading the Whitewater page on Prodigy’s bulletin board in 1996) were pretty heady, withe the March for Justice on 10/31/98 and Clinton’s impeachment on 12/19/98.
We thought that would be the time of the Great Awakening.
With the squeaker election of 2000, and 9/11/01, we thought that would lead to the Great Awakening.
By 2007 and the near debacle on immigration we were thoroughly disabused of that notion.
The rise of Obama, and our feckless GOP candidates in 2008 and 2012, and the unjust Ocare ruling by Roberts were the nadir of our despair.
We came back and gave the GOP the House and the Senate, not realizing they were fully part of the Swamp too.
Then in, June 2015, Trump came down the escalator.
History changed.
Now, after three years of preparation, the Great Awakening has begun.
I am grateful to God to allow me to see these days.
It has been a long march.
Here are some FR patriots who went on before us:
