Hi Harry,

Nice to see you posting again.

Please, repent and apologize and for heaven's sake send Jim a bottle of Malox.

I, for one, have missed you, and hope you stick around.

Stay on, but I don't contribute to any entity that doesn't disclose its finances.

I would encourage you to come over to:

www.delphi.com\frureform

Go to the start tab and look over the links to other web sites that contain information.

Do yourself a favor, and help out the conservative movement. Look over the information with the same critical eye you gave to Clinton and his dealings.

Good idea, TKE. And also here:

After all, Jim wants the Freepers to understand the concerns of the AFers, as his post clearly indicates.

HA! Look over copyright law. I would encourage you to go to:

www.delphi.com\frureform

Check out the start tab, and go and look at the other web sites. Take a look at the Talkspot thread.

Oh my gosh, Jim. When I logged on this morning to FR, I had as many pings to this thread as to the Canteen. Of course I want to speak up and ask you please don't shut down this wonderful forum. I know that there are those who hate us and want us to go away, and they must be jumping up and down with joy at reading this thread, knowing they just might be getting to you.

I know it's been mentioned before, but it may be time to think seriously about having a "membership fee" in order to post. I think I read that if every member only gave $1/month, (one small dollar) it would be enough to keep FR up and running. $1/month - that's so meager, it's ridiculous to think that there are those who wouldn't be willing to do their small part in order to keep this forum. I also know how hard MANY, MANY FReepers work during the quarterly fundraisers, and how MUCH of the financial load a few carry.

Please, let's all pull together and keep FR online.

Somehow my original post got lost in cyberspace. I'm not surprised with the amount of traffic!

I want to reiterate how glad I am that I "discovered" FR. It has given me a forum where I feel comfortable discussing opinions about the Constitution and government issues. Especially in the wake of 9/11, it has given me a place to rant with others who have been affected as deeply.

Please don't go away. I will pledge my meager financial support and only wish that it could be many times more because I think FR is priceless.

Sincere best wishes and good luck!

Welcome home, 1stMarylandRegiment! member since November 5th, 2000

Oldtimer, newbie, "lurker since," whatever, I've shared $15 of my money every month since my "member date." Detractors can go join Lucianne.com for all I care.

Quotes that come easily to mind:
Hey, you guys are the VRWC.
Yeah, and now so are you!

If you are keeping a tally, this is a KEEP IT GOING vote.

Will contact Joe about upping my monthly contribution, too.

No I'm not. Please. A Chart of Accounts also lists in interesting information in the detail. I'm looking for the accounting tools that establish the financial position of the site.

I would encourage you to visit the following site:

www.delphi.com\frureform

Lots of information is contained there. Go to the start tab and then go to some of the other sites.

you helped get one legitimately elected(twice) president impeached for lying about an affair, and helped one coke snorting, drunk driving spoiled brat, who can't even pronounce "nuclear", appointed president against the will of the voters. congrats.

that being said, i just like to come here to argue with the wingnuts--at least one non-lemming in this echo chamber. we'll see if my posting privileges are revoked. again.

I say keep it up, and will be sending monthly donations just for that purpose.

Good Luck, God Bless and Semper FI,

Marine Inspector

Hey, Arator!

Hey Gargantua! How on earth have you remained unbanished? I saw Pardek and Poohbah hunting you down like hounddogs on a thread not so long ago and I only assumed that they had snuffed you out. I'm glad to see that they somehow couldn't bring themselves to pull the trigger...yet.

Good to post alongside you again. I am somewhat puzzled by this JimRob post... which is to say, if FReepers decide the time has come for the FR jig to "be up", JimRob will be the first to know it by the drying up of the donated cash.

If, on the other hand, this thread is merely a more-subtle-than-some-of-the-recent fundraising drives, I applaud the marketing strategy employed.

Well, I think Jim Rob was hoping to invite the worst sort of AFing behavior onto this thread to gin up and "us vs. them" hysteria and spook the herd into a stampede of mindless reflexive donating.

Unfortunately (for Jim Rob), I think that perceptive FReepers are realizing that us "AFers" are really just FReepers like themselves who have been mugged (or watched their FReeper friends be mugged) by FR's abusive management far too many times and, though banished, had the resourcefulness to maintain contact with our FReeper friends rather than slip quietly into post-banishment oblivion like so many others.

Anyway, Happy Holidays, Arator! Hope to be seeing you around!

Same to you, G!

You are the Rush Limbaugh of the internet

NO ! He's NOT.

Rush Limbaugh is the "Jim Robinson" of Talk Radio.
