Dear FRiends, Our fundraiser is falling behind. Please keep those donations coming in and let's get this FReepathon moving again. [Thread XVII]

[Chris Robinson]

Prayers up.

FR is funded solely by contributions made by the liberty loving patriots who love and use it.

We are beholden to no political party.

No advertisers, no outsiders, no sugar daddies, no corporate string pullers.

Definitely no government subsidies or tax breaks. No 501c or other IRS non-profit status.

This means no commercial ads. No annoying pop-ups. No ad tracking. No mail campaigns. No spam. No third-parties -- not even the IRS -- trying to control what we do or say.

We are self-funded, fiercely independent and enjoy our freedom to speak plainly in the support of God, family, country, liberty!!

But we cannot exist without you.

Every donation counts no matter how big or small. If you can donate $5, $10, $20, $100 or more, it would be greatly appreciated.

Your loyal support makes Free Republic possible and your continuing participation makes FR the number one pro-God, pro-life, pro-family, pro-small government, pro-defense, pro-America conservative forum on the Net!!

And we're going to need FR now more than ever to combat the current crop of Marxists and progressives 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!!

Make it a Monthly if you can. We have some very generous FReeper sponsors kicking in an extra ten bucks for every New Monthly signed up.

Or send in a hundred dollars or more per quarter and join I_be_tc's growing list of 300 Club patriots. I_be_tc sends in $100 per quarter and challenges 300 others to do the same. If we could get 300 FReepers to send in $100 per quarter, these FReepathons would complete much faster. And we have received 24 donations of $100 or more so far this quarter!!

Thank you very much and God bless you.

With respect, one thin quarter a day -- about $7 per month -- is suggested as a minimum "fee" for being able to post comments.

All can read the recommended articles and comments, without commenting. Therefore the single additional benefit to those who would comment -- even if only from time to time -- would be that minimum fee.

Some contribute more, obviously. But one wonders whether the small $7 per month would weed out those who would use but not support Free Republic. For your consideration.

Donated this morning. I know times are tough for many, and it can be a bit depressing reading the news these days, but I do appreciate having everything here in one place and being able to share with (mostly) liked-minded folks.
