Quote of the Day:

GretchenM (May 18, 2007): All of life is full of crazies. FR, when I came upon it in 1998, had a craziness to it because of everything Clinton was doing to put it to the American people. FR had wild arguments, stupid accusations, massive anger, and thousands of truly ignorant people who were also belligerent, just as there are today. I come here for the news and to enjoy interacting with people whose posts stand out to me. I don't have the constitution for the rough and tumble, so I have avoided it.

The craziness created by Clinton passed as the course of time allowed us to clean the excrement from the Oval Office and the things Clinton did to soil the presidency, and the American culture.

I am counting on the same result here. In the interim, conservatives need a place where they can get information and post their thoughts. Just as every unit of society has its crazies and its injustices, so does FR. Wise visitors will be able to sort the wheat and chaff. This forum is widely read by people in every strata of political life and party. I don't understand much about what is going on here, except for this: The place is under attack and I will not abandon ship in this storm. I fully expect that this, too, shall pass, and until then, the conservative cause needs little old me to keep rowing with my one little oar. I believe I must know our enemy and stand to the ranks or risk being run over by those whose ideologies are repugnant to me, and, I believe, detrimental to this nation I love.

Hi jonny. Very sad day all around.

I know how we will miss Gretchen here, and her family has my prayers.

Excellent Dose tonight, jonny. You are a class act. I'm sure Gretchen is lurking, smiling and blessing you and so many others here, for being such good FRiends.

That said, I'm so glad Gretchen will be able to see how much she is loved, and how much we all care for her family, as well.

Goodness reigns.

Prayers go out to Gretchen and her family.

I am shocked to hear about her passing.

May she be at peace and safe in the Arms of Our Lord.
