Listen up eveybody!
Sodpoodle reminded a few of us on a recent thread, that come November 28 this site will have been continuously operating for 14 years
That's right, fourteen years
Think about everything thing that's happened in that time. Many people and things are gone forever.
Yet, Jim Robinson's site remains as a beacon for Conservative Americans.
Free Republic remains only because of contributions by the members.
No government grants or subsidies, no advertising, no mysterious right wing Daddy Warbucks hiding behind the curtain.
It's just us grunts. And it's up to us alone to keep this place running.
So consider a donation of any amount to close out this pledge drive before Thanksgiving. Let the Robinsons celebrate with at least one worry resolved.
And if you're already contributed, consider adding a little something extra for the holiday
EAGLES UP!
