I heard the piece, he noted how the snobs and elites hate to lose to the common man.
Site is already slowing down. Look, I will be happy to have a slow connection to FR if it means that more "ordinary people" join our cause.
The site is creeping like a decrepit turtle right now.
Man, did it ever. It's down to a slow crawl here.
[William Shatner voice] Must... keep... posting... despite.. expected... FR server... overload... [/William Shatner voice]

Cboldt... "sigh" I think you're right. It will get real slow around here, but we could be a real educational tool for a lot of "fence sitters!"
Already slowing up for me. LOL
Stll, it's worth it. He mentioned how it's natural other organizations want to take credit for this, but two sites in particular broke this. FreeRepublic being one.
TankerKC, Buckhead, and Howlin thank you again for your role.
Rush, thanks for giving props to the people here that had been taking hits from the MSM for years.
Only been on this board a short while but the people here deserve every bit of the praise he just gave.
I hope we have a good boost in donations next FReepathon. We'll need it.
Some disparage the newbies coming here due to all the recent publicity. I say, Welcome to the huddled masses, the tired (of media bias), the poor, etc. We were all once in their shoes. Remember the days when we didn't have FR, one another, and all the links to ALL the news? It was a horrible existence, and I mean that sincerely. We were buffeted by the Dan Rathers of this world who made it extremely difficult to get to the truth behind any event.
God bless JIM ROBINSON and his dedication to everything that brought him to create FREEREPUBLIC.
I hope we all wille welcome the newbies. Yes, we'll get some trolls, but the anti-troll forces at work will keep doing their job.
