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.
During the Christmas holidays a family of 3 sits down to dinner with guests.
The mother motions the table to say grace.
"Dear Lord God....we thank you for these blessings set before us and for our dear friends"
The young daughter then blurts out:
"No Mommy.....thats not what you said when you talked to God earlier.....you said.......Oh God.....why did they have to come over"
LOL---where's the tip jar???
I would gladly pay a "cover charge" for this club act anyday!! BRAVO!!

Nite tubebender!!! Thanks for your help!
Aha! Good idea!!
Ha...what is frustrating is trying to finish the sentence..and not being able to.
I have laughed so hard in the past whenever I heard the Jeff Foxworthy, "You might be a redneck if..."
because I live in Texas...and I am surrounded by rednecks...LOL
I think a redneck is a state of mind, more than just a location...don't you? DON'T you??? :)
ROFLMAO...most definitely!!!
