Monthly Challenge/Freeper Convention Ticket Drawing!

More Monthlies Needed!!

If we had enough monthlies to cover our costs we wouldn't even need to hold FReepathons or, in the very least, they'd run a lot faster. If you are a regular donor to Free Republic, please consider starting a monthly. Your donations will be processed automatically by our program or through PayPal.

If you are not a regular donor to Free Republic but find our website fun, useful and informative, please consider becoming a regular donor. Start a monthly if you can.

And if you start your monthly this month (or increase your current monthly) please let me know by FReepmail and we'll include your name in a drawing to be held at the end of the month for TWO tickets to our National Convention in Washington, D.C. on Sept 11 through 13.

We now have SIX new or increased monthlies in the drawing for August and would like to add YOUR name. If your name is drawn, you can use the tickets yourself or give them away to others.

Woo hoo!! Hope to see you in DC!!

The Purple People Beater (sung to the tune of The Purple People Eater)

Well I saw the thing comin’ out of the left
It wore a union label, and yelled a threat
I commenced to shakin’ and I said “ooh-eee”
It looks like a purple beater to me

It was a S E I U union purple people beater
(S E I U union purple people beater)
A democrat, left-wing, union purple people beater
Sure looks strange to me

Well he came into town and he came up to me
I said Mr. Purple People Beater, don’t beat me
I heard him say in a voice so gruff
I wouldn’t beat you cuz you’re too tough

It was a S E I U union purple people beater
(S E I U union purple people beater)
A democrate, left-wing, union purple people beater
Sure looks strange to me

I said Mr. Purple People Beater, what’s your line
He said it’s beatin’ honest people and it sure is fine
But that’s not the reason that I came to land
I wanna beat people for Obama my man

Well bless my soul, pipe and club, union purple people beater
Weather underground, union purple people beater
(S E I U)
Union purple people beater
Sure looks strange to me

And then he swung his fists knocking people to the ground
He started to fight, kicking people around
He sung a crazy ditty as he swung his fists
Singing boop boop aboopa lopa lum bam boom

Well bless my soul, pipe and club, union purple people beater
Weather underground, union purple people beater
(S E I U)
Union purple people beater
Sure looks strange to me

And then he went on his way, and then what do ya know
I saw him last night on a TV show
He was fighting it out, a’really knockin’ em dead
Pushing down old ladys and kickin’ them in the the head

(clarinet solo)

Tequila

Dear FRiends,

In light of what is transpiring in our nation’s capitol and around our country, more than ever, we need to ensure that places like Free Republic and other like-minded places continue to speak the plain truth. Newspapers are dying and the current administration will either bail them out or allow them to fail. If they are bailed out, they will be even more beholding to the coming socialist agenda. If they are allowed to fail, the powers that be will force the remaining electronic media to fill the void. Local coverage only. No national syndicated news/talk. The “Fairness Doctrine”, like it or not.

After that, the internet. Free Republic. And others.

We need to get this FReepathon over and right now. We need to show that we are serious and will continue forward and thrive, not just survive.

If you can spare a couple of bucks, that would be great...If not, God bless you and please stop by the FReepathon thread and give it a bump.

We’re all in this together.
