I believe FR was instrumental in revealing Iran Missile Photoshop as well!

I didn’t know you are one of the “Old Timers” like me. :) I found out about FreeRepublic when Rush was going on and on about it in the fall of 1997. Checked it out and “Lurked” for a couple months till I signed up a couple months later.

This has always been a great place. I used to love all the long, deep discussions, the expertise's of various freezers. They could debunk just about anything and I really miss some of the Freepers who now grace the Wall of Fame.
Same Here!

Wow, I’d forgotten about the Walter Reed protests, that was fantastic.
My favorite FR moment was at Mass Ave & 34th St. in front of the National Observatory screaming at Gore, “Get out of Cheney’s House!”
Another classic for me was a small Freeper gathering in Arlington. I gave Kristinn a ride home afterwards, and I recall thinking that he was thinking that I was an FBI plant. :)

Very nice job LS a HUGE THANK YOU!!
To: EyesOfTX
I lurked through the BJ Clinton Impeachment. Then after acquittal officially joined and became an active member of the DC Chapter for the weekly Saturday FReeps at the White House. I was hoping to get a rest after the 2000 election but was thrust into the Gore Wars Get Out of Cheneys House FReeps at the National Observatory. Then we held the glorious Free Republic Inaugural Ball and Count the White House Silverware Party for W Bushs first term. Trivia question: Who was the very special musical guest for the ball?

Wonderful blasts from the past ! Thanks for posting, Tex......and thank you, Larry Schweikart and Jim Robinson !
So good to see so many old timers still around and posting here.....still sharp, still lively, still producing creative writing mixed in with sarcasm, scoldings, wisecracks and feistiness, LOL.....and still true to the FR pillars of religion, freedom, liberty, the Constitution and the Rule of Law.
Long Live Free Republic !

Was it Huckabee? I know my sister had her pic taken with him at the ball, but don’t know if he was there for music or not.

I lurked starting with Clinton impeachment but didn’t sign up until 2000. I toggled between FR and Lucianne.com, but it didn’t take long until Lucianne got boring. This is my only place for news. Other sites are flashier, but this format is more logical and sensible than others (IMHO).

Huckabee & his band, Capital Offense. JR was there in full glory. Proud moment of mine to shake his hand.
Was a fabulous event.

Not only did good ole country boy, Gov. Mike Huckabee, strum a great gi-tar, he sang, also. His band played dance music plus some good old country !
I couldn't take my eyes off of him...... he was such an accomplished and versatile performer !
