Making progress!!

Still lagging a bit behind the pace from last quarter, but we're getting there. Please keep those donations coming in, folks, so we can end this thing soon. If we can raise a minimum of 10% per week, we can be done within the next three weeks!!

We can do this!!

FR is funded solely by contributions made by like-minded liberty loving patriots who enjoy and use it and think it's a worthwhile endeavor to support.

We are self-funded, fiercely independent and enjoy our freedom to speak plainly in the defense Liberty.

Free Republic stands for God and Country!! We defend Life, Family, Constitution, Liberty!! And we defend our God-given, constitutionally guaranteed right to keep and bear arms!! TO THE HILT!!

We are beholden to no political party, no outsiders, no sugar daddies, no advertisers, no corporate string pullers. We do not depend on government grants or tax payer subsidies. It's just us, baby, and we need each other. Now more than ever!!

But we cannot do it without your continuing support.

If you have not yet made your donation this quarter, today would be an excellent day to do so.

Every donation counts no matter how big or small. If you can donate $5, $10, $20 or more, it would be greatly appreciated.

Your loyal support makes Free Republic possible and your continuing participation makes FR the leading INDEPENDENT pro-life, pro-family, pro-small government, pro-defense, pro-gun, pro-borders grassroots conservative forum on the Net!!

And we're going to need FR now more than ever to combat the current crop of Marxists, fascists, progressives, collectivists and assorted totalitarians of every stripe who have infested our government and public institutions and who are dead set on destroying the final remnants of our cherished constitution and our precious God-given Liberty!!

The only thing standing between us and totalitarian domination is our constitution... and our guns!! Never, ever give up your guns!!

"Freedom is never more than one generation from extinction." --Ronald Reagan

Our generation will not be the one that sees freedom extinguished in America.

NOT ON MY WATCH!!

Never surrender!! Never retreat!! Never give up your guns!!

NO, not again! I feel so sorry for you.
Joy needs to kidnap you to sunny Florida!

I have an Uncle in Longwood that keeps asking me to come down and visit. I wish that I could. He’s 92. Not many chances left.

[SWAMPSNIPER]

I’ve been stuck most of the time, only time I get out is for doctor’s appointments.

[3D-JOY]

Funny weather this week. One day was about 80, then a day of warm “WIND” followed by a day of rain, Finally today was seasonal and 72 or so.

It is easy to take. I am so glad to be here. I tell everyone to come and visit!

[SWAMPSNIPER]

Same kid, they grow fast!

[3D-JOY]

Sorry to hear that. I remember you were sharing a car for a while with family.

2 of my 3 daughter's families are having a very hard time. Long layoffs and pay cuts as well as short hours have been very destructive. Not much the other girl and I can do to help but we try to keep everyone fed and the power on!

I get so angry at the lack of understanding about this fool's intentions for the country. Well, maybe we are the fools and he is not.

Awwwww
My grandson is in a marching band and I love the uniform pictures.

He thinks he is heading to the Marines. Academy? Tough to get an appointment. After college graduation? At 15 he has time to plan or change his mind. Dad wants him to be an astrophysicist. I don’t even know if I can spell it right! He knows he does not want to work at a desk but wants to make the kind of money that will let him live in a big house like his parents. Wouldn’t we all like to do that?

We are running the wheels off of the little Ford Focus, the kids leave at 5;30 AM, SIL drops my daughter at her job then drives 45 minutes to his. This time of year it's dark when they get home.

Daughter got promoted to supervisor, that is helping out a little bit.

Grandson rides his bike to work if his girlfriend can't take him.

Hey, I see Florida is checking in tonight.

MinuteGal is helping on the Florida state page too!

Thanks MinuteGal for encouraging an extra donation from our “team”. We have so many monthly donors on the state page it is hard to reach many additional FReepers. Asking for a little extra was a great idea.

[Lady Jag]

It’s the reason I don’t care for tattoos. I first saw that tattoo watching men doing hand work on a production line. It was shocking to see because I knew what it meant. Later I discovered what Nazis did with prisoners’ more ornate tattoos.

[DJ MacWoW]

It is hurtful to see. I met some Poles in NYC in the 70’s that lost their whole family except for themselves and 2 daughters. They hid in caves and Paul stole food at night. The stories were very frightening.

[3D-JOY]

Long days for all of them!

Your being there as the base of support must be a good thing.

Will they all be able to rest over the weekend?

[DJ MacWoW]

It's after midnight. I'm going to bed.

See you tomorrow! :-)

[onyx]

Yep! Everyone is doing a great job. Plus, whenever musicman is here and doing his magic we always seem to get donations! You watch, there’s a certain point when he’s our closer.. and he will put this baby to bed. It’s magical.
