You are kidding yourselves.

Do you really think that you can make a difference in this political climate by having a "conference"?

Really, all respect due, unless you actually FIGHT against the Fedgov leviathan and risk a day or two in jail, you are spinning your wheels. Nothing will come of your efforts/expenses to listen to the "choir". I've been there.

YOU WOULD ALL DO BETTER BY PUTTING YOUR EFFORTS INTO "CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE" AND TRULY FIGHTING FOR OUR CONSTITUTIONAL HERITAGE, rather than talking about it at seminars. You're wasting you time.

Do what you will. Again, it won't make an ounce of difference unless you decide to fight and sacrifice! How did the Tea Parties and your phone calls work out for the "Cap & Trade Bill" in the House? YOU LOST! WE LOST! We can also lose in the Senate.

You're REALLY not getting how this is a WAR for the SOUL of America. Do your thing; invite the pundits to talk; raise your hands in unison; all applaud the speakers who say what your already know; walk away feeling good, but have no clue how to change things back to our Constitutional heritage.

Think this. You can spend so many of your dollars to join in a "group" hug, but are you willing to spend those same dollars for a fine from confronting the corrupt politicians on the Capitol steps? Enjoy your group kisses.

"but are you willing to spend those same dollars for a fine from confronting the corrupt politicians on the Capitol steps?"

I sure am!

We will gather with other patriots from across America to make our voices heard.

We will wake up our fellow Americans to what is going on.

We will enjoy our National Free Republic Convention and together we will defend our Constitution.

And yes, we will confront the corrupt politicians on the Capitol steps!

SEE YOU ON THE CAPITOL STEPS!

Folks, there's NO excess built into the cost of the convention tickets. The price of each ticket is our DC convention cost on the head.

Yet, during the course of convention planning, there are incidental charges for this and that which generally continue right up till convention time.

Those of you who have served on committees for ANY organization putting on big events know exactly what I mean.

To my many freeper friends who can't make this convention and Tea Party, I'm making a personal appeal for a donation, perhaps equal to the cost of a ticket, or perhaps just what you can afford to send. This will help us by providing a contingency fund for unforeseen expenses or emergencies.

Perhaps some of you who can't go to DC would like to publicly demonstrate you're in total sync with the freepers going, many of whom are making the trip at some considerable personal financial sacrifice. I hope you'll back each and every one of them with some help and moral support for the success of this grass-roots event.

You'll receive a public tip 'o the hat, and grateful thanks from the hard-working committee who need at least a minimum petty cash fund to take care of unexpected costs and expenses.

Please, folks, you can be in DC in spirit, if not in body, if you can find it in your heart to lend a helping hand to this event and to its volunteer organizing committee.

Heartfelt thanks to the freepers who are donating tickets to students and those freepers living in or near DC who are generously offering beds in their homes to help out. There are many ways to help!

Please freepmail our chair, Brytani, to see how you can give an assist. She'll reply to you with grateful thanks on behalf of herself and the whole committee....namely, Brytani, JimRob, Just Amy, Kristinn, Mike Evers, MinuteGal, Seek the Truth, Surfer and Syncro.

God bless our united efforts to help overturn Obama's usurpation in our nation's capital.....and God bless America!

Leni

"They seem to have forgotten “We the People”.

Yes. And you are going to hold Tea Parties that were ignored with the "Cap and Tax" bill, have a conference and everybody gladhand. I've been there and done that and it use to work, but no more unless you are ready for "civil disobedience". Without that, you are preaching to choir.

Best of luck, anyway.

WHOO-HOO. We're all feeling good now, aren't we? Gee another conference that has made NO difference in the larger political and Constitutional sceame of things.

Oops, my bad, I thought conservatives were about "thinking", not feeling good.

Here's a thought if you want to FEEL "liberal" good. If the police come and break up your party; You can tuck your tails between your legs and disperse like good subjects, OR, you can sit your ASS down and tell them NO MORE totalitarian nonsense, with respect to the LEO's of course.

Doubt any of you will. Keep preaching to the choir; waving your flags; showing your signs, and then go home.
Obambi, reid, and pelosi will ignore you, unless you make a stand. Got day off for a night in jail? Didn't think so.

Just so you know, I would personally bail about 20 of you out if you just sat your ass down and made them haul you away. Neil E. Wright has my contact info. Got balls?

WE are doing SOMETHING other than sitting on the sofa complaining.

Are you out doing any “civil disobedience”? Until someone comes up with a better solution, I will join others in reminding them that we are mad as hell!

Have a good day and God Bless you. Thank you for your service to our country.

Do you think we will change the minds of American if we start acting like Democrats?

Should we start assaulting those in government, how about we go after them at meeting with our hands painted red to symbolize blood?

Should we start breaking windows, disrupting traffic, assaulting people, running them over in cars?

How much support do you think we will get from the average America with actions such as that?

Thank you Leni - I wish to add two small points to your message.

There is absolutely NO profit added into the tickets, not for FR, not for anyone planning the event, no profit at all.

If by a small chance there is any money left over, after we have covered all of our costs, we will either donate the monies to FR or if Jim prefers, we will donate it in FR’s name to a charity of his choice, possibly a veterans organization.

Free Republic should not have to defend your opinion that violent protest is the ONLY way to go.
