Freep-a-thon- Give a minimum of $10 OR admit you believe in Welfare 'cause someone's paying for You

We all know that every one of us is going to blow ten bucks at McDonalds, Wendys, someplace in the next 24 hours.

That's why it's simply not believable that everyone can't send at least ten bucks.

It's election season and you're going to get no better election info and discussion than here on Free Republic. It's just a fact.

Let's knock this freep-a-thon out and get fully into the campaign.

BTW, my sense is that the lawsuit against Free Republic should make us MORE determined to protect this treasure that Jim & John have provided us in FR. No one's said anything, but lawyers cost extra cash. A major equipment crash and burn a while back costs extra cash. This is all to say that there's a real need.

Finally, there is no other discussion and response software anyplace that even comes close to what the Robinsons have created. And it's exclusively available to conservatives.

A minimum of 10 bucks, folks.

Othewise you admit that you believe in Welfare, because someone else is paying for your time here.

Take up a freep-a-thon tagline.

One of your own or something you see someplace that you like.

I’ve been a-dollar-a-day member for years. If there were more of us, we wouldn’t need FReepathons.

A minimum of 10 bucks, folks.

Othewise you admit that you believe in Welfare, because someone else is paying for your time here.

That approach is not going to help and may actually hurt the "Freepathon" and cause many good people on FR to take offense.

You also seem to be ignoring folks who contribute their time composing the posts, along with JR's efforts of course, that make FR what it is.

I agree that that’s one way to get rid of freep-a-thons.

I’d agree with getting rid of the “need”, but I’d still have them.

Everyone who participates should contribute is the principle that I’d stand on to encourage the Robinsons to keep having freep-a-thons.

The F-thons are in everyone’s face reminding them that they have a responsibility, too. I like that.

Yep, and you seem to be the expert when it comes to that analogy.

I'm not a big believer in the constitutional right to freedom from offense.
