I was at the gym and saw this:

He told me that they were offered here about 15 years ago.

[just me]

I have a Free Republic hat..

[Tax-chick]

I have a FR t-shirt with my name on it.

Look at my profile pic. Still have the Free Republic hat.

[Hacksaw]

Doing something like that now would require too much basic intelligence.

I’d pay a high premium price for a “Proud To Be A Dirty-Lousy-Freeper” circular logo on a hat, t-shirt, whatever.

If Mr Jim doesn’t want to monetize the site, I have no complaint there (but neither would I complain if he did).

However, I think a gift-shop ain’t a bad idea either, for a voluntary funding source. If you could get a freeper with a shop to cut a cost + % deal to F.R. and sell on a double or better markup, it could generate some funds. Heck, I’d pay $30 for a $10 product if it had a cool F.R. logo on it!

I like the fuller-brim baseball-type caps unlike the goofy little caps they're selling today.

I took a white cap and a dark navy cap to my mall which has one of those monogram, tee-shirt printing, etc. shops.

I chose the type-face and color I wanted. I had "Free Republic" along with a tiny American flag machine-embroidered on both caps. It didn't cost much. This was years ago, so I don't know what the cost is now. In fact, lots of these little speciality shops have closed....thanks to ObamaEconomics. But your area may still have one.

I love my FR caps and wear them a lot around town....and wore them to two Tea Party rallies, one in Illinois and one in Florida.

I still have some of those Bill Clinton 0cents postage stamps ... never saw the jacket.

[MinuteGal]

I still have some of those Hillary-wearing-the-imperial-crown O-Cents stamps after all these years!

Looks like I might be able to use them up in a couple years, lol.

‘Cept the bay rats wouldn’t have a clue what or who a FReeper is. Or how to react to reason, logic, common sense (two words) or the truth.

[mware]

I got mine during the Clinton years, when I attended CPAC. The DC chapter of FR was holding daily protests in front of the WH.

They had a few left and I bought one.

Really a great time with the DC Freepers, but cold as hell. I gave my CRIME WAVE poster to the FReepers who used it in a few of their protests. I saw it in a few photos of the WH Correspondents Dinner.

[mware]

LOL, I remember walking down the hall in the school where I teach.

Two of the kids in back of me started to sing.

F-R-E-E. That spells free. Free Republic dot com baby.

[a fool in paradise]

Democrat Underground DOES have jackets.

[Albion Wilde]

LOL ping!

[basil]

I have one—and proudly wear it! Can’t think how many years I’ve had it........but it’s been many.

[basil]

LOL!

I haven’t seen or heard much from DU in a long time. Has anyone else?

[real saxophonist]

I also still have this pin:

[jocon307]

Those are nice - Great Christmas presents!

[bmwcyle]

I bought the last one at Bush's second inauguration freeper party from the seller.

[Portcall24]

Welcome to the club. I never wear things in public with any logo from any company. None of that crap from Old Navy or any of those. Unless they want to pay me and pay me well. I never a answer any poll from telephone unless they pay me and pay me well. I always ask if the pollster is getting paid and they always say yes. So why shouldn’t I get paid?

[Leaning Right]

Heck, I’d pay $30 for a $10 product if it had a cool F.R. logo on it!

Yep, me too.
