Howdy everyone!
Happy New Year!!
2005 was a great year and we're looking forward to an even greater 2006! The Iraqis have held their elections and as democracy and freedom takes hold, it appears the terrorist violence has greatly subsided. We're hoping that the war in Iraq is just about over and that as the Iraqis take over responsibility for their own security, our troops can finally come home. God bless them all. We pray for peace in the Middle East.
On the home front, we see President Bush's numbers on the upswing and our confidence is growing regarding continuing conservative successes in the midterm elections this Fall. Judge Samuel Alito should be confirmed for the Supreme Court in the next few weeks and our hopes for a more conservative court will soon be realized.
September 23, 2006 will mark Free Republic's 10th year anniversary. It's hard to believe that 10 years have passed by so quickly. Time flies when you're having fun. We've been blessed with many successes on Free Republic over the years and are praying for continuing success in the future.
Thank you all very much for making Free Republic the very best conservative site on the web!! FReepers are the greatest!!
May God bless you all with peace and prosperity in the new year and much happiness in all the years to come.

When Brad's Gramma is away, this place gets too quiet, doesn't it...
I wish I was as clever as she is...and had cute graphics and such..
Maybe I will go thread hop...and drop hints about donating instead..
From my point of view, it appears that falling would be desirable.
I don't know but putting her in charge of the communal still was a step in faith most sane folks wouldn't even consider.
The woods may never be the same after she gets done with the next batch.
Thank you very much, SeaBiscuit!!
LOL---she is gonna kiiiiiiiiillllll you!!
But, you did express my feelings....we will get the donations to reach the goal...we always do.
It is a slow time...Congress out..people getting back from the Christmas vacation..
This is only 6 days in if I count correctly.
We'll get there.
Well...I have a plan...
I heard tonight that the Girl Scouts are gonna be knocking on doors...so, when they come to my door, I will sneak up and scare them into dropping their boxes...and then proceed to sell them.....
Nah...that would NOT be right...
