Howdy everyone,
Are you ready for a FReepathon?
The state of our FR is strong!
Our big legal bill is now paid off and our budgetary requirements are now reduced. For the first time in our history, our monthly donations are now bringing in more than 50% of our quarterly budget! Thanks to our generous membership and the settlement with the City of Fresno, we now have a comfortable cash buffer and should have no problems meeting our coming tax payments and other obligations.
I've recalculated our estimated budget requirements for the remainder of the year and have posted them here:

We just completed the first loop of our nationwide tour and we had a great time! We traveled through eleven states in three weeks and FReeped with, met with and dined with FReepers in ten cities and from at least a dozen chapters. It's great to see all our old friends again and to meet new ones. Joining a gathering of FReepers is just like going a family reunion. Very warm and friendly and just like home. Thank you all so much for your gracious hospitality and friendship!
We hope to visit all fifty states and most of our chapters within the next year or so. We hope to visit our LA Chapter on the 1st of August to tour the Reagan Library. We hope to visit our San Diego Chapter sometime this month to welcome home the USS Ronald Reagan. We're also planning a Pacific Northwest Tour in August. In January, we're planning a trip across the South and down into Florida and then up the Eastern Coast to Washington, DC for the Free Republic George W Bush Inaugural Ball II!! Woo hoo!!
Well, with the war in Iraq all but concluded, the trial of the Butcher of Iraq about to start, and the election season heating up, I'm sure that FR is going to be THE place to be to get the very latest in news and conservative discussion in the coming months.
Thank you FReepers for making FR the premier conservative forum on the Internet!
Looking forward to the coming campaign season! Good luck to all and may the very best people be chosen to lead our great nation!
Thank God for our successes thus far in the war for freedom and may He guide us through to complete victory over tyranny and terrorism.
Thank you and may God bless you all.
Jim
You shamed me into it.
Donate
All donations welcomed here,
Every penny helps us.
With your help we’ll stay the best,
We won’t ride the short bus.
Free Republic’s here for you,
Kept strong by your giving.
Without donors, FR dies,
With you it keeps living.
Send a dollar maybe five,
Wisely they will spend it.
Be a monthly donor here,
Easier to budget.

Pony!
What a beautiful young lady you are!
Good one!!!!!!!!
Neigh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I can't believe that little lady is my baby...........sigh!
Kudos! Excellent Freepathon poem.
Thank you, CG.
I guess you didn't get the pony for your birthday. (Sigh.)
Well, maybe next birthday.
Ok I'll quit talking about a pony for Jax.
You made me write it.
The pony is for Gabz'z daughter.
Thanks for the coffee and donuts.
Thank you, All True Conservative Americans!!
(We know who you are!)
You're welcome J
LOL!!!!!!!!!
She was actually talking about a pony yesterday.........EEK!
Looks like I'm ging to be forking over money for riding lessons after the swim lessons are over........
what the heck......she's having fun, learning things and all these lessons are actually cheaper than just dumping her in day care.
Ooops!
Thought you were still talking about the pony you wanted for your birthday during the last Freepathon.
A pony for Jax would be lovely!
(I'm sure Gabz wouldn't mind.)
;-)
Time for the other tagline.
Riding lesson are a good idea. Horses are magnificent gifts from God.
