"If everyone that said that was donating time and money to the real conservatives, it would be workable. But alas - far too many donate nothing but words and think they are doing their part. I often look to see who donates to FR and assume that those who don't also opt not to give any tangible support to their "beloved conservatives". Of course, there are those who opt not to be named for their donations and who never show up on the donor list."

I'm not sure what this is meant to imply...seems it might be a passive-aggressive attempt at a zing? Of course I could be wrong.

If you mean this for me, you have no way of knowing what I donate politically.

As for FR, I've donated to every Freepathon since I signed up, sometimes more than once in a single quarter. But my name gets left off the donor list for some reason.

Boss, would you please put my name on the donor list? Thank you.

Feel better, trebb?

I do feel better - you are the first of about a dozen or so that responded in a positive manner - most just slink into the shadows which is telling. The way I figure is that the real targets of my "probes" may feel ashamed and either put up or shut up which would be a win-win. I know that some who don't show up on the donor list donate far more than I do and assume that they are secure enough not to lose any sleep.

Too many donate nothing but words and I intend to pick away to make them aware that opinions w/o any other form of activity is why the Left keeps making inroads - I still think your comment/opinion on not voting under the conditions stated is a big reason why the Left has been allowed to take so much from us, but at least i know you back your opinions up with more than words.

I won't apologize for my comments that are designed to urge/shame some into doing more than gas about things because someone has to do it - we already know that being "oh-so polite" so as not to hurt anyone's feelings is a path to losing - adults, such as yourself, can roll with the flow and the children will have hurt feelings.
