And finally, we need help with our DC events and convention expenses. Whether or not you are attending our events in DC, if you would like to help someone else attend or help us meet our general event overhead expenses, please consider donating to our Convention Fund. We've already had three FReepers donate the price of a ticket ($175) so others can attend. Thank you FReepers!! Please mail your checks to Free Republic, LLC, PO Box 9771, Fresno, CA, 93794 and include a note or the words "Convention Fund" on the memo line. Or if you'd rather donate via credit card or PayPal, please use our secure server link and just include "Convention Fund" in the comments field so we can break your donation out and report it separately from our FReepathon totals.

Thank you all very much!!

See you in DC!!

Rebellion is brewing!!

Attending a wedding for the first time, a little girl whispered to her mother, ‘Why is the bride dressed in white?’’

The mother replied, ‘Because white is the color of happiness, and today is the happiest day of her life.’

The child thought about this for a moment then said, ‘So why is the groom wearing black?’

A little girl, dressed in her Sunday best, was running as fast as she could, trying not to be late for Bible class. As she ran she prayed, ‘Dear Lord, please don’t let me be late! Dear Lord, please don’t let me be late!’

While she was running and praying, she tripped on a curb and fell, getting her clothes dirty and tearing her dress. She got up, brushed herself off, and started running again!

As she ran she once again began to pray, ‘Dear Lord, please don’t let me be late...But please don’t shove me either!’

Q: What do Billy Graham and the Buffalo football team have in common?

A: They can both make a stadium of 50,000 people say “Oh, Jesus.”

Three boys are in the school yard bragging about their fathers. The first boy says, ‘My Dad scribbles a few words on a piece of paper, he calls it a poem, they give him $50.’

The second boy says, ‘That’s nothing. My Dad scribbles a few words on piece of paper, he calls it a song, they give him $100.’

The third boy says, ‘I got you both beat. My Dad scribbles a few words on a piece of paper, he calls it a sermon, and it takes eight people to collect all the money!’

Hey BG,
Not that I waited until the last minute or anything, but I just called the Sheraton and WAS able to get the discount rate for 2 nights even though the online site said it was sold out.
I have a question about the convention tickets, though...Is today the deadline for them, too? I’m still not sure how many are coming.
Thanks,
and Bumpies for the Freepathon
Love,
O2

This post is for all you good FReepers out there that haven’t yet been moved to make a donation to help get this FReepathon over and keep the lights on, here at FreeRepublic.

A very good friend of mine wrote the following and sent it to me this morning. Think about it.

“Maybe we should think this over first.”

“Lets start with this definition:

Whoever knowingly or willfully advocates, abets,
advises, or teaches the duty, necessity,
desirability, or propriety of overthrowing or
destroying the government of the United States by
force or violence or Whoever, with intent to
cause the overthrow or destruction of any such
government, prints, publishes, edits, issues,
circulates, sells, distributes, or publicly
displays any written or printed matter
advocating, advising, or teaching the duty,
necessity, desirability, or propriety of
overthrowing or destroying any government in the
United States by force or violence, or attempts to do so; or
Whoever organizes or helps or attempts to
organize any society, group, or assembly of
persons who teach, advocate, or encourage the
overthrow or destruction of any such government
by force or violence; or becomes or is a member
of, or affiliates with, any such society, group,
or assembly of persons, knowing the purposes thereof.

Not being a bashful individual let me say that it
occurs to me that this describes the liberal
progressives that now are in control of our
government and our education system. Sadly, most
of our friends on the right are allowing this to happen.

Thomas Jefferson warned many times in his
writings, public and private—for instance in the
Kentucky Resolution—in keeping with the
traditional American philosophy, strict
enforcement of the Constitution’s limits on the
Federal government’s power is essential for the
protection of the people’s liberties.

Somewhere along the line Jefferson’s warning has
been lost. Our liberties are being destroyed and
the government has invaded all most every aspect
of our lives. Think about this, where does this end or does it end.

I have read some history pertaining to Germany at
the end of WWI. My take on what happened is that
the German government spent itself into oblivion
then started printing money until hyperinflation
broke out. All the citizens got really pissed
and started looking for a new leader to fix all
the problems. Along comes Hitler and the Nazi
party and one of the first things they did was
socialize the medical industry. The rest is history.

Let me see, I think I have been reading about
something like this happening again
somewhere. Can’t put my finger on it at the
moment. Maybe one of you good folks can come up with it.

I think that someone should call the cops and
suggest that maybe a crime is being committed.
Then read them the definition at the top of the
page. I’m relatively sure that it would be a
classic deer in the headlights moment.

Oh well, it’s just your country and the future of
your children that are at stake, it’s probably
not all that important, maybe someone else will
fix it and anyway this could never happen here in
the USA. Our government would never spend us
into oblivion and cause hyperinflation. Oh wait;
they have all most completed that part. What is
that light coming at us from the other end of the
tunnel? Seems to be moving in our direction, now
isn’t that interesting. Lets stand here and see what happens…………………

Be well my friends.......”
