A Few of FR's Finest....Every Day

Free Republic made its debut in September, 1996, and the forum was added in early 1997.   Over 100,000 people have registered for posting privileges on Free Republic, and the forum is read daily by tens of thousands of concerned citizens and patriots from all around the country and the world.

A Few of FR's Finest....Every Day was introduced on June 24, 2002. It's only a small room in JimRob's house where we can get to know one another a little better; salute and support our military and our leaders; pray for those in need; and congratulate those deserving. We strive to keep our threads entertaining, fun, and pleasing to look at, and often have guest writers contribute an essay, or a profile of another FReeper.

On Mondays please visit us to see photos of A FEW OF FR'S VETERANS AND ACTIVE MILITARY

If you have a suggestion, or an idea, or if there's a FReeper you would like to see featured, please drop one of us a note in FR mail.

We're having fun and hope you are!

Last, but certainly not least, I couldn't decide which quote to use, so I'm leaving it all up to you to decide....or submit your own. (Now, unlike our own Freezie's "contests", this is just for fun; the prize is your own satisfaction for knowing your subjects well. :)

Do enjoy these daily messages, Rus, I'm glad you post them.

[Billie]

I'd rather be lucky than good! ;-)

You could be both, couldn't you. :)

[Billie]

True! I had such fun reading quotes - of course there were many politician/money jokes 'sayings', too!

[FreeTheHostages]

[Aquamarine]

Well done Billie. Love the layout, it looks great!

It's hard to imagine why anyone would vote for one of those demo candidates.
Have to admit, this one is annimated. LOL.

[MeekOneGOP]

Mornin', everybody ! Happy Tuesday !

[MeekOneGOP]

Oh, boy ! Oh, boy ! Oh, boy ! ...

I get to post this ...

Dykes for Dean

[MeekOneGOP]

Sharpton revs up against Dean
(Click here or on the pic for entire article)

At stake for Sharpton is control, both of his home turf and the African-American wing of the national party. He won't look kindly on any presidential candidate, including Dean, who doesn't recognize his primacy. In fact, he's threatening to sit out the 2004 election. "I'll just go back to Harlem," he says. Let Dean explain that to black voters.

"If I can slap this donkey I can make it kick George
Bush out of the White House."--Al Sharpton

[The Mayor]

I'm glad you like them.

I couldn't tell you how many freep mails I have received from people that don't post.
Some have brought tears of joy and others sad, but Prayers go out to all..
we all want and need to be fed with the word. I'm just so happy they touch so many..

I have added people to the list, and really enjoy posting them.

[StarCMC]

So true TM - thanks for sending these to me! *HUGS*

[Billie]

#3 - I like that one best, too, I think!

Have to leave for a bit - will be back!

[Mama_Bear]

Mornin' Billie.

LOL!!! This is going to be a fun thread today. What a fantastic job you have done matching up those quotes and the pictures. That must have taken some time!

The sun is shining today, a real rarity in January here. I am torn between working on my next state post and using this nice day to get some things done around the yard. I could use the exercise, guess I will work in the yard. :-)

[Mama_Bear]

Good morning sistahs, brothas, FRiends and neighbors. Warm hugs for our frozen freepers.

[Calpernia]
