My candle burning at both ends has reached the middle.
May God bless and keep the whole lot of you, my dear friends.
Thank you for your comfort, concern, and covering for me while I got used to my new life with my Rocket-sized hole in it.
Pleasant dreams.

To: Jim Robinson; onyx; RedMDer; TheOldLady
Good Evening Jim and all the FReepathon crew!
I'm happy to say that tonight I'm able to sponsor a couple more New Monthly Donors (just kicked in a couple more sawbucks via PayPal). Wish I could do more than a few at a time but that's how it is for now, until we boot the Marxist and start real recovery! I've been pretty inactive FReep-wise for a couple weeks with a bunch of family stuff but am getting back into action now...
Jim your (re-)post about what FreeRepublic is (and IS NOT!) was, as always, right on the mark, and a great reminder that WE are the ones trying to keep all those other un-principled bass turds honest, or at least as honest as we can force them to be. It's hard enough without having to also argue constantly with a bunch of folks who are looking for a liberal debating society!
As always, God Bless you all and the crew at FR for keeping the faith, and God Bless America! Rock on!

C’mon, folks, a $5 a month automatic donation is going to hurt? Maybe for some of us, with this crappy obama recession, but for those of us still working and making enough, how’s about throwing in a Lincoln a month, if not for yourself, for a Conservative brother or sister who can’t?

DO YOU HAVE QUESTIONS?
DON'T BE BASHFUL.
Here's the deal. Free Republic exists for you, and because of you. Without the generosity of people like you, Free Republic would wither and die. Then where would you go to find a group of like-minded people, standing for the values and principles of conservatism, spreading the word about those who would tear down our way of life, and just plain having fun?
Free Republic doesn't have the financing of some billionaire, hidden in the background. Free Republic is "grass roots" all the way. We're not looking for 10 donors with $10,000 each, but we sure could use 10,000 donors with $10 each. The dollar amount may be the same, but the difference is in how we get there.
WE NEED YOU! Anything you can give is so greatly appreciated. If you can become a monthly donor, that is fabulous. If five dollars is what you can manage, bring it! Your on-going support is crucial, and our thanks to you are immeasurable.
GOD BLESS YOU, GOD BLESS FREE REPUBLIC, AND
GOD BLESS AMERICA.
