So once the election was over we were done fighting I guess?
Cause the FReepathon ended fast in election season.
Anyone who thinks that battle ended when Trump won is deluded, freeze dried or doing hard time.
I know Jim is a patient man but I get REALLY annoyed seeing this thing last mote than a week.
EVERYBODY has 5 bucks to give. Or they would have sold the device they used to get on FR by now.
Anyway, since I live here I’m putting in another 10.
I COULD go out to lunch, see a movie, rent a movie, buy a book, buy a scratch off and a million other things with 10 bucks.
I CHOOSE to give it here.
Because it’s BETTER Than all those other things.
Freedom and knowledge is BETTER than all those things.
Jim has the patience of a saint. This Sicilian doesn’t.
He could make a nice profit with advertising on here what with the numbers that come on.
That he doesn’t shows he’s a better man than me.
Chalk 5 bucks the #### up. Come on man.
If a FReepathon ever gets down to the wire, I will give AS MUCH as I can to keep it running.
Me personally, I’d make it a subscription service.
I was off FR for 6 months. There is NO WHERE ELSE to go that is even REMOTELY close to what we get here.
Tirade over. .

FReepers are a special kind of people.
The first FReeper, was a man named Jim Robinson. Seeing things take place in our nation that he knew were wrong, he decided to develop an internet site where patriots could gather and network to effect change. In a short period of time there were literally thousands of people who had joined him. Many were joining him in Washington, D. C. to let our leaders know, we weren’t happy. Today those people are known as FReepers and they do something no other site requests of it’s members. They voluntarily pay to support the forum they recognize as the best meeting place on the internet, for Conservatism.
Here we discuss policy, the movement to destroy our Founding Principles, and voice support for sound principles and leadership.
Long ago Jim realized that when large entities support you, they want something in return. For that reason he declined offers by large entities to support the forum. He knew that what they offered could be withdrawn anytime he didn’t bow to their wishes. We cannot surrender to the influence of large entities or individuals. Our kind never could and never will.
Some folks don’t quite grasp these points. As they watch other sites and individuals trash our presidential candidate this time around, they wonder why. The fact is, many of them are beholden to the very sources of funding Jim said no to, or they have let personal loyalties skew their outlook.
That’s where you come in. You are a FReeper. You value this forum so much so, that you will help fund the forum even though sometimes it hurts financially to do so. Folks, if it hurts, it’s like the Widow’s mite. Your donation means so much more when it’s a struggle for you to send in that $5, $10, or more dollars, and you do it anyway. Do you realize how unique you are and thereby the forum is? There is no other place like it out there.
You are willing to put your money where your mouth is. That is impressive. The amount of money you help contribute is astounding when you consider you won’t be kicked off the forum for not paying. That’s right, others will pick up the slack. Why? Because thousands of people come here and recognize just how important Free Republic is.
It’s a marvel what you do once a quarter. It’s remarkable how dedicated you are to Conservatism, and it’s advancement.
Folks, during our nation’s founding, not everyone agreed with what was gonig on. There were some knock down drag out fights. I suspect some folks abandoned the effort in disgust, and hoped the Founders would ultimagely fail. In this, you stand with the Founders facing the same dynamics they did. We’re a relatively small band of people in the overall scheme of things, who are dedicated to gettting this nation back on track and keeping it there. Look around out there. There aren’t that many people left who publicly support our cause the way you do. You by your actions, your resolve, and dedication to Conservatism are the life blood of this nation. When the lights are off everywhere else, there’s still a light shining in the Free Republic window 24/7/365. As long as there is a glimmer of FReedom out there, there always will be.
We are supporting Donald Trump here. Against the RNC, the GOPe, and the almost unifed media in this nation, we press ahead. We put squabbles behind us. We unify behind the people and organizations that matter. And now we are doing it once again.
Once more it is time to do what FReepers do. Those of us who value this fourm will pick up the slack. We will fund Freep Republic far into the future.
You..., as a current FReeper, I salute you for being a part of this effort.
Freepers are a special kind of people.
We will continue to support FReedom, truth, justice, and the American Way!
