Specifically, the protests were started by the "Freepers" on Free Republic (www.freerepublic.com), "an online gathering place for independent, grass-roots conservatism."

Free Republic was founded by Jim Robinson, a Vietnam veteran living in Fresno, Calif., and the protests on Massachusetts Avenue outside the Naval Observatory were organized by Washington, D.C. area members.

Also, Mr. Gore might like to know that it was a Freeper who designed a widely circulated parody of the Gore-Lieberman 2000 logo: "Sore Loserman."

WTG FReepers!

Ahh those were the days. Kudos especially to the Washington Freepers and the Florida ones too. They did a great job.

And don't forget our New York crew here as well in Liberal hell. We were always outnumbered 10 to one and had to freep in severe weather in Times Square.

If Gore runs again we'll be back.

And we were not "bused in"--I drove down from NJ with my wife at my expense to protest at "his house"!!
