WHERE WOULD YOU GET YOUR NEWS FROM IF FREEREPUBLIC WASN'T HERE?

September 18, 2001 | FREEPERS

It is not always easy or fun sitting at a computer for hours and hours monitoring these threads. Everyone person here is a VOLUNTEER. As a matter of fact, we pay to do this. We spend days and weeks helping to keep FreeRepublic running.

Ask yourself these questions:

Where is the first place I go to get my news?
Am I getting any benefit from FreeRepublic?
Am I learning from FreeRepublic?

FreeRepublic is not free. It costs Jim Robinson tens of thousands of dollars to keep this forum running. There are over 60,000 registered users on FreeRepublic and only 1,000 help keep this forum running regularly. Those who do not have the ability to donate money could help by stopping by and giving a bump. Those who who do have the means and have not contributed, you should be ashamed of yourselves. You are a FReeploader.

We do not want to see this forum dead, therefore, we are asking that you help keep FreeRepublic running.

If everyone who registered donated one measly dollar a month, we would never have to have a fundraiser again.

There's always DU or Salon......

OK OK, igore my last question, I see all the info I need in the header...sorry for wasting the bandwidth...I'll paypal a contribution...still not tax deductible, right?

[firewalk]

Hi Humidston! You know, I don't think people realize that all of us here, have already donated. This is our way of helping more. Thanks for bumping and for donating!

Censor? Where is your "scarcasm" tag? This is the FReeRepublic, animus, only filth, and liberal lies are censored here.

I don't roll well without my Cap! Don't leave lodwick behind, he wants to ROLL with you guys!

[Fred Mertz]

Thank you, freeper12!

No, it's not tax deductible.

[WIMom]

I can't answer all those questions. I know there are about 60,000 registered users here. I know it costs thousands of dollars every quarter to keep the server running, but the I have a call for help. I just ask for money because I believe in this forum and in freedom.

[firewalk]

Over here lol!

[firewalk]

Thank you for letting me know they were all over there!

[WIMom]

OK, let me go and get caugt up with the threads. BADJOE asked if I would let him get caught up, so, the attack is in the foxhole for now.

If you mailed me, I think I was able to answer all.....

Also, we may have had more donations today than the last 2-3 days combined! Thanks everyone!

"More people get their news from FreeRepublic than from any other news source."

(At least, people with a clue do.)

Bump and thanks for your efforts WIMom. I sent my $40 via snail mail around the time of Thread 12. Come on lurkers, give. It feels sooooo good.......

Is Badjoe backed up on donations? Great! Sorry, Joe, but I'm on the attack and will not quit!

[WIMom]

Hey, give it a try........hehehe! If it works, you will have to let all of us know! There is coffee and donuts in the morning, so stop by!

[WIMom]

You're welcome!

[WIMom]

Thanks!

What would EVER get done without our Mother's help?

BADJOE, Pay attention now: Hit the plastic for 100USD! This donation is to be in "Billie's" name for giving hundreds, maybe thousands of Freepers, and moocher-mullets, an opportunity to laugh once more.

To The Top! Fantastic job ALL!
