Are you ready for a FReepathon?!

Wow! October already! It seems the primary season dragged on forever, but now the elections are upon us. Less than five weeks left to campaign. Can McCain-Palin pull it off or are we going to be stuck with the Marxist Barak Hussein Obama? God help us all.

And how about this financial mess? Hoo boy! The Democrats Carter and Clinton push their socialist Community Reinvestment Act "to encourage depository institutions to help meet the credit needs of the (poor and minority) communities they serve" and when it gets out of control and comes back to bite us all in the butt, they blame Bush and the Republicans.

Sheesh, they loosen the loan requirements, push lenders to make bad deals, the regulators and overseers take bribes and look the other way, the housing market booms via easy credit, the government guarantees the bad loans, then they get repackaged and sold off to unsuspecting buyers so the government agencies can get them off their books, the Clintonite CEOs and execs make millions in bonuses, and when the inevitable bust comes, they point fingers at everyone but themselves.

Now they expect the taxpayers to pick up the tab. And they push an unprecedented $700 billion dollar socialistic power grab that they claim will save the nation and the world. And it must be done today or we all plunge into the abyss!

Yeah, and I know of a great bridge for sale - cheap!

I hope a lot of heads roll over this one. We desperately need to flush congress of socialists and our financial institutions of corruption!

Here's praying for a successful election day, a house cleaning, a fresh start and prosperity for our nation!

Meanwhile, our traffic on FR is growing, our systems requirements are growing, we have bills piling up and taxes coming due. Consequently, I've increased the target of this fundraiser to meet our needs. I know it's going to be tough to make it, but we've got to try.

Thank you all very much for your continuing support and for making Free Republic the very best conservative site on the net!

God bless.

Okay, if we donate can we get a server named after us?

I know of a great bridge for sale - cheap!

—

That bridge wouldn’t happen to be part of the Carter-Clinton Economic Roadmap to oblivion or just the latest attempt by the left to push this nation further down the path of socialism... and look who’s helping them push us and this monstrosity called Nancy Knows Best over the top?

Prayers for the nation, now , more than ever under assault.

I'm repeating my match offer I posted on the first freepathon thread:

As a charter member and Poet Laurie-ette in the FRee Republic Light Verse Brigade, I'll match every $100 signed donation by creating and posting an original, personalized ode dedicated to the donor.

This will be fun, I guarantee you.

When you post that you donated a hundred smackeroos you must give me a ping
So I can do my thing!

Please take a look at this. We have tracked down Barney Frank's former "spouse" who was a Fannie Mae exec while Frank had oversight over Fannie.

Is this the man behind the mounting Herbert M. Moses Fannie scandal about to erupt in Barney Frank's face?
