CONGRATULATIONS

EVERYONE!!!

[Gabz]

I'd rather get it over as quickly as possible so we can all go back to our normal freeping!

You've got that right.

Wasn't it you who asked me the other day about what was "news" and all I could tell you was whatever I heard on FNC?????

[Bryan]

Another Freepathon draws to a successful close. Thousands of new members are really coming through for us in a big way and they deserve our thanks.

The money is always well-spent, chiefly on bandwidth and equipment costs and utility bills, to keep the biggest and best WHOLE TRUTH information machine in the world running -- we constantly filter out the left-wing spin-doctoring and provide members with "the other half of the story." It's a group effort with thousands of unpaid volunteers, serving as amateur news analysts. Magnificent.

The legal team is also a great investment for part of this money. It protects the site from left-wing disruptors who realize what a danger we represent to their agenda. They are constantly trying to find a way to interrupt or shut down the smooth operation of our news analysis.

A lot of publicity has also attended Free Republic's lawsuits, which are expensive but worth every penny. We are defending freedom of speech for every little website on the Internet, including the left-wing hate sites whose members are gleefully predicting the date that we will go "Error 404."

Note to DU, Smirking Chimp, Bartcop,
Eschoir and the rest of the Anti-Freepers
and assorted left-wing flame trolls:

HAPPY TO DISAPPOINT YOU!

Last summer, one of the left-wing punks at Smirking Chimp actually predicted that we would go "Error 404" by Christmas 2001. I told him that I'd find a little McDonald's paper hat, link him to a fully operational Free Republic on Christmas Day, and ask him whether he wanted fries and a Coke with that crow he was going to be eating.

Guess how that turned out: same way it always does.

Or bump every reply in this thread to him and fill his self-search box...

Gee, been_lurking, it must be awfully lonely always on the outside, nose pressed against the window pane. Why not dust off the good manners your Mother taught you and join the celebration ? Come on in, you're welcome but behave yourself.

[Jim Robinson]

Thank you! Congratulations to all who worked so hard on making this fundraiser a success. Great job! Thank you, FReepers!

[EdReform]

102%!!!

[Billthedrill]

That's Don - he got beat up by a couple of Teamsters in Philadelphia for having the temerity to suggest that Bill Clinton was a lying, cowardly, manipulative, festering sore on the body politic. They claimed he attacked them with his face.

[68-69TonkinGulfYachtClub]

Thank You and ALL involved in making this happen.

"Please don't start an endless stream..."

That's almost poetic! Maybe you could write some doggerel for the next FReepathon.

Catch the Spirit! lol

YOU are the schnorrer, sir.(yiddish slang--look it up!) lol

[Jen]

You made more than just JimRob happy with your donation. I am happy you contributed to the cause, even if I (and others) had to nag you into submission. (I'm a mom and a wife. I'm doubly good at nagging.) hehehe

[Jim Robinson]

Hope they like crow. They have a whole lot of it in their future. Thanks, Jim Robinson

[Texaggie79]

I'm jealous of you and your "all" ping.....

[BADJOE]

Because the lying SOB has no Honor.He promised to leave FR and now the dumb bastard is back making an asshole of himself.

I told JimRob I needed to be banned for a while so I could properly commiserate with those who complain to me about being banned.

last week an ex Freeper said he pay if we would unban him . He said he'd been banned five times. I told him my friend Buckeroo has done twice that good. : )

[Bryan]

This is my "Ultimate Volley Flag List" in case I missed you the first time. Keep up the outstanding work, everyone.

[Constitution Day]

codebreaker: No cheerleaders?

Aaaaah!! I can't believe you would suggest such a thing.
You must be with the terrorists!

[Gabz]

what was I complaining about?

Deleted threads come to mind.

Would you care to answer my question?

I recall you posting your "last post" in the Lounge not long ago and part of the reason had to do with deleted threads and now you're posting and complaining because the folks that worked very hard for the FReepathon are having some fun with it.

[Bill Davis FR]

it was faster than the pbs telethon...lol
