CONTACT SPEAKER Boehner "here" TODAY!
NO DAMN AMNESTY!
NO IMMIGRATION REFORM!
ALSO, PLEASE GET ON THE PHONES!
202-224-3121 - CONGRESSIONAL SWITCHBOARD
WE ARE TEA PARTY PATRIOTS, NOT REPUBLICANS, BUT THERE ARE ONLY 2 MAJOR PARTIES!
PLEASE MAKE YOUR DONATION OR SIGN UP TO DONATE MONTHLY, RIGHT HERE!
First off, PLEASE make you calls and send your e-mails! We're winning the amnesty issue, BIG TIME! Make DC listen!! Karl Rove's American Crossroad's donations were down OVER 90%! That spells DOOM for the GOP-e and GLORY for our completely independent, citizen army of "TEA Party" American Patriots!!
Now, y'all have another good reason to see why Jim is fiercely intent upon Keep Free Republic totally independent and free from the likes of advertisers, corporate sponsors, sugar daddies or political parties.
If you like and want to keep Free Republic, then it's up to you and that means All of Us to Keep Free Republic Alive, with our freely given Donations. We're not beholden to any outsiders and plan to keep it this way, with your help!
I know money is tight. I know the Marxist's economy sux, and I think it's getting worse, not better. DrO and I live on a fixed income, so we have to make every dollar count. Even on that, Free Republic means so much to me, that I Donate Monthly and also manage to add enough every FReepathon to qualify for the 300 Club. I fully realize and understand that not all of you here can match my donations, just like I can't possibly match the very, generous, and very, very generous donations of so many of y'all, but please give whatever amount each of you possibly can without harming your own family and household. Family always comes first and I hope and trust that all of you know that Jim wouldn't have it any other way!
Every donation counts, no matter the amount! $5, $10, $20, $25, $50, $100 or more --- and please know that ALL Donations are truly and greatly appreciated.
We always have a New Monthly Donor Campaign and our current NMD Campaign is well underway with 17 New Monthly Donors including 1 New $1-A-Day Donor! This Quarter, our four very generous FReeper Sponsors are Tijeras_Slim, upchuck, somebody & Owen Kellogg and they are kicking in $10 for every New Monthly Donor, so PLEASE consider signing up to DONATE MONTHLY if you possibly and reliably can.
If you Send in or Donate $100. or more per Quarter please join our growing list of 300 Club Patriots, which was started by FReeper I_be_tc, when she donated $100 and then challenged 300 others to do the same. We have received 82 Donations of $100. or more so far this Quarter. If we could get 300 FReepers to contribute $100 per quarter, these FReepathons would complete much faster.
Please click the secure server link or the graphic above or Donate by mail to: Free Republic - PO Box 9771 - Fresno, CA 93794
NEVER GIVE UP & NEVER GIVE IN!
Remember Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego Didn't Bend, Didn't Bow and Didn't Burn! (Read Daniel 3)
We are the Sovereigns and the Resistance.
Our tasks ahead are never greater than the power right behind us, when that power is God Almighty!
Stay steadfast and keep praying.
On behalf of Jim and his awesome FReepathon Team,
"Thank you so much for your continued loyal support!"
God bless and keep you all and everyone you love.

Here’s the difference between a “thoughtful President & a “thoughtless” President by Joseph Curl
Every year, in the week between Christmas and New Years, I think about George W. Bush. It was in that week each year for the eight that I covered him as a reporter that he gave me a spectacular gift and he knew it. I started covering the newly elected president in 2000, when I was in my late 30s. Back then, as a reporter for The Washington Times, we went everywhere the president went. If he went to Charlotte , N.C. , to give a 30-minute speech on an airport tarmac, we went. Up at 4 a.m., an hour long commute to Andrews Air Force Base, in place on the ground hours before POTUS landed, and there for hours and hours after he left sometimes right through the evening news so network reporters could file live from the site.
We also went with the president to Texas every summer often for a month and every winter, too, over the holidays. But heres the thing: In December, we never left Washington, D.C., until the day after Christmas. Never. Mr. Bush and his wife Laura would always depart the White House a few days before the holiday and hunker down at the presidential retreat in Maryland, Camp David. After a few years, I asked a low-level White House staffer why? I still remember what she said: So all of us can be with our families on Christmas. Who was us? Hundreds and hundreds of people, thats who. Sure, the reporters who covered the president, but also dozens and dozens on his staff, a hundred Secret Service agents, maybe more, and all of those cops required whenever the presidents on the move in D.C. For me, that one-day delay was huge. My kids were 6 and 8 when Bush took office. When he went home to Prairie Chapel that last time in 2009, my girl was driving, the boy was 6 foot 1. But in the meantime, I was home for eight Christmas mornings, playing Santa, stoking the fire, mixing up hot chocolates.
That was President Bush. And every year for the last five, Ive thought about what that meant to me. (By the way, some years, I got holiday duty, which meant I was off to Waco, Texas, the day after Christmas. But once again, the Bush White House had us covered: A press plane flew out with the president, and back then, reporters could pay $100 per family member for the plane ride. So sometimes, the family went along. For the kids, it was an adventure; for me, well, we were all together).
All that has changed with President Obama. No more press plane, for one. Reporters are on their own so taking family is, say, $1,000 a pop. Not likely. And this president would never delay his trip to his island getaway. Hes off every year well before Christmas. Hundreds and hundreds head off with him, leaving family behind. No Christmas at home. Instead, the Hawaiian Village Waikiki Beach Resort. Nice, but not exactly home.
Anyway, thats why I think of George W. Bush every year in the week between Christmas and New Years. Probably will till I die. Thanks, GWB.
Joseph Curl covered the White House and politics for a decade for The Washington Times and is now editor of the Drudge Report. He can be reached atjosephcurl@gmail.com and on Twitter @josephcurl.
What a decent man. I believe history will be very generous to George W. Bush.

I used to walk from Hemingford Gray to St. Ives to “stretch my legs,” but really it was to see the swans in the canal there.
I never met the man with seven wives when I was walking to St. Ives, though. ;-)
