I Am Reinstating My Previously Witheld Monthly Payment To FR

Giving priority to what is most important, I have decided to swallow my pride. I had a dustup with a moderator. I lost. Though I think the moderators need a tuneup they ain't so bad really. I depend on them to keep this site from becomming a free for all whacko hate site. I used to push the abuse button quite frequently on my fave undesirables ... anti-semite, haters. I notice they're a bit thin around here lately.

It is most important that Free Republic live and thrive. It is less important that I get things my way around here. Though I do not agree completely with the proposition that it is Jim's site and he can do with it what he damn will pleases ... It's as much our site, collectively, as it is his now. Perhaps Jim does ride herd a bit too hard on this creation he gave birth to. Fact is I don't know. I simply don't have enough information.

But it is a given that FR is the best there is at what it does. If it's only my morning paper and a place to exercise my verbal skills ... it's worth supporting. Now is the time for all level headed thinking FReepers to come to the aid of our wounded friend ... Free Republic.

BIG FREEPER BUMP

[CyberCowboy777]

A major bump to that!

Sounds like we will not be united (or happy about) in anything until the next Demon-Rat president.

[CyberCowboy777]

Maybe Registered could create a graphic?

I know I know.

The mature humility and willingness to work beyond strong differences that you both have shown, despite the difference of opinion, is an example to all of us on the forum.

The shared common purpose that has developed over a long history can often be the salve for even a heavy wound. Many of us here could take a lesson in our own meager ups and downs, in relationships with others here that we differ with, from time to time.

Thanks to you both for true examples of character in action.

[Jim Robinson]

No, I've got yours here in a mason jar. It came off that Saturday night at my house.

Thank you. I have finally stopped crying and smiled for the first time since reading the thread It's one year later. Where were you then? Where are you now? How have you changed?

[GummyIII]

You gotta wonder what the tenth voice is saying

Either -

1) Be selective - I'm running out of places to bury the bodies; or

2) Shoot. Shovel. Shut up.

I Am Reinstating My Previously Witheld Monthly Payment To FR


And after your comments on this thread Jim I am increasing the amount of those monthly payments. I just filled out the form and cyber-shot it to The Phillips Principle.

[DaughterOfAnIwoJimaVet]

I'm a person of my word. You won, fair and square.

[GummyIII]

FYI ping, again.... (Big Grin)

[Sir Gawain]

No, not yet. He has yet to return.
