This goes out to all the Illinois Freepers --- at least those of us who are left. Are there any besides Lurker and I?
The purpose of this thread is to find out who's left here in this Socialist Hell-Hole run by Fat Boy JB Pritzker, the puppet of Mike Madigan. Let's get together, enjoy a few adult beverages and brainstorm about our plans to either get the hell out of this state, or participate in saving it during the next election.
I personally think this state is lost and we should drink ourselves to oblivion and get the hell out of here. Some of you may have other ideas. I don't know.
In either case, we Illinois Freepers used to be pretty active "back in the day" having met with the great Henry Hyde, who led the charge in the House and Senate to impeach and remove Bill Clinton, harassed Bill Clinton where ever he went in/around Chicago, researched and outed Barack Obama and his association with Jeremiah Wright and so much more.
Illinois Freepers have a history, a good history. Our state is often mocked (Hell, I do much of that myself) and being in the same state as the Murder Capital of the U.S. Shitcago sure gives the rest of the state a bad name.
Dammit anyway, it's time to get the band back together and commiserate.
What say you all? I believe many of us are in Will and DuPage counties, some are in far western and southwestern C(r)ook County and I believe there's a few in Northwest Indiana that may be interested in as well.
Venue to be chosen, likely in the West/Southwest Suburbs and likely a brew-pub. Interest in good beer, good food and getting to know your fellow Illinois Freepers is a must.
We used to be a friendly group ... probably still are, though I've gotten much older and if you step on my lawn prepare for war, but still, friendly.
Respond to this thread or freepmail. Looking to setup something in mid-July based on interest.
USC.
Agreed! It gives me great comfort to know there are a few red satellites in a tsunami of blue. The frequent posters are inspirational to me,
Coming from the bluest of blue states, I know exactly what you mean!
I’d like to see some of you. I live in Bartlett.
Lol!
Which of the Blues Brothers do you want to be?
By the way, I hate nazis.
My uncle used to live in Bartlett. After the last kid left he sold the house and bought one in Berrien County MI.
I went to an Alan Keyes rally in 2004, a couple guys were holding a FR sign, I didn’t recognize their screennames but one told me he recognized mine, at the time I would have been one of the youngest freepers. It was pretty awkward and I said cya and that was it. :-P
I wish I could have seen Alan Keyes. In 2004, I was in the navy reserve. I was activated, for a trip to Iraq, and I was gone Aug. 2004-April ‘05.
Small venue, it was packed, temperature rose quickly, Keyes was sweating IIRC.
In which town do you live? I’m trying to determine a central location for Chicago-area Freepers to meet.
