If you’re like many in the conservative community, you go to Free Republic to discuss the issues of the day, find out the news and see that you're not alone.
Why?
Because you know you will receive absolutely the best information, views, strategies and tactics in advancing the cause and nullifying the statist progressive/liberals and their outlandish, un-American plans and actions.
And you also know that you’ll be treated like a real person, by other conservatives in a warm, caring, if somewhat challenging environment.
Your contributions have helped make Free Republic the leading conservative website that it is. We are all grateful to you for supporting Free Republic in the past.
Thanks to you, we have touched the lives of thousands – whether they needed information on an issue, wanted to vent or had questions about conservatism.
In this uncertain economic time, the site counts on your support – now more than ever.
Your gift is extremely important to Free Republic because it provides resources that make an immediate impact – that will help FR through these interesting – and tough – times.
Your gift of $10, $50, $100, $500, $1,000 or $5,000 can make all the difference…… to your fellow FReepers, Lurkers and all the others who come here to get the "other side of the story" that the administration, media, RINOs and far left don't want discussed.
And if you’d like, you can specify your gift is for a particular cause, loved one or other reason. Your choice.
Please consider making as generous a gift as you can.
As the Internet advances, your site is committed to staying at the cutting edge – for you, for your fellow FReepers and everyone else. Please help to make this possible with your contribution.
Your donation will make a world of difference. I promise you.
Thank you so much for your help.

” And you also know that you’ll be treated like a real person, by other conservatives in a warm, caring, if somewhat challenging environment.”
Yeah, just ask all the people who said they were voting Romney in 2012 and then got banned, before FR reluctantly came around at the eleventh hour to the realization that not voting Romney was a vote for Obama. It’s not like I WANTED to vote for that milquetoast, but it was sure better than implicitly casting a vote for the Community Organizer in Chief and many of us came to that realization half a year before the “power users” of this site did, and were in the meantime subject to insults and vitriol that could hardly be described as “being treated like a real person.”
If Freepathons are taking longer and longer to wrap up, maybe it’s because some conservatives have been treated very poorly over the last few years and were shown the door or left on their own? Maybe it’s just because FreeRepublic has more competition in the “forum for conservative discussion” market, and people are going elsewhere for conversation. Whatever the reason, the Alexa site rankings - of which we were so proud of ten years ago - seem to show that hits are declining, which should mean the money needed to bring Freepathons to a conclusion also decrease as fewer site resources are consumed.
The election was in November of 2012, but your “born-on date” is May 31, 2013. Yet you say that “many of us were subject to insults and vitriol” back then. So you’re a retread?
That’s it? That’s your response? Addressing literally nothing from what I suggested might be why these fundraisers are running over 66% of the year?
So you think I’m one of those “power users” you referred to up there in your rant at #14 and I need to answer your accusations? Hahahahaha! I don’t run this site, retread, I’ve never even met the owner or anyone else with a rare couple of exceptions.
"We?" You signed up last year but were around a decade ago?
I note you've made four posts in that nineteen-month period, and two of them are on this thread.
Also, what's a power user? Is that in the dictionary?
FR IS A CONSERVATIVE FORUM FOR CONSERVATIVES, NOT A GOP-E FORUM FOR RINOS.
BYE-NOW.
I’m in a tougher spot financially than ever before, and four kids to support. But I gave what I could the other day because I do value this place and its founder very much.
