It’s tough for AGYG to put away blazing guns and go with roses, but I thought I would start.

I’d like to thank RjayneJ for all the behind the scenes work – thanks for what you do, without much recognition.

I also want to tell Kristinn and all the D.C. Freepers that we are all so proud of your diligent activism. You do incredible work in the nation’s capital.

And Bille & SnowBunny put on a very professional and inviting USO Canteen. That work is so important during this time. Thank you for your regular rememberance and comfort to those who daily defend our liberty and way of life.

Lastly, thank you to DittoJed2, Faith, and so many others who are so faithful to fulfill the biblical mandate to pray for those in authority – particularly the POTUS.

I just want to make sure that both of you are publicly recognized for being the first two persons to endorse the President for reelection in 2004. Although our EEC (EARLY ENDORSEMENT CLUB) is still small, the inclusion of the two of you in the vanguard of this movement means that there can be no outcome but success.

Since today is my 7 month, three week, 6 day anniversary of joining, I'd like to thank all Freepers for making me feel very welcome here and my mom for finding this site.

Cool idea for a thread.

I'd just like to say I've especially enjoyed many of ya'lls posts in this forum.

When we've disagreed, you've both been very well-reasoned and to the point.

Unfortunately, we've also agreed, too (I hate to agree with people, as you may have noticed, I'm just the combative type). I'm so radical and unconventional in most of my views, it's often hard to find people to have discussions with.

Thanks for your considered, reasoned posts regarding some of my ramblings. I can't wait to disagree with ya'll again.

I know, how about -- "Linux is a Communist Plot"?

:-D

Yes, of course, I'm kidding!

[Grampa Dave]

I want to thank these three freepers. We will probably never agree on who to vote for as president. We come from different political camps. We have locked horns on Free Republic and probably will some threads.

Yet I can learn from these 3 gentlemen.

glutton is a self admitted tree hugger from Tree Hugger Capitol, Eugene Oregon. Glutton and I are both against those in the enviral movement who advocate and participate in acts of violence. Glutton gives me/us an inside look at an enviral with a conscience and those that both of us detest.

Sneaky Pete is about as grouchy as I am. However, Pete served with honor in Nam, and was a Spec Ops guy. I know that I can trust what he has to say about the military in his unique and grouchy manner.

Willie and I have tangled re presidents and who isn't president. Willie has an excellent knowledge on past, present and future oil/gas supplies here and in the world. He knows a great deal on atomic energy and how it can help us. When there is a question or possibly so wrong oil/gas info posted on Free Republic, I page Willie as he usually has the correct data to things back on track.

These men are three Freepers who are totally different in where they come and where I come from. They are working in their way to improve America, not destroy it. I thank them!

[Grampa Dave]

Thanks to the three of you for your service and for helping us when "certain" military questions come up!

[Gun142]

You're the greatest!

There's way too many people to name off individually and I'd be sure to leave someone off. But I'd like to thank all FReepers in general for making this such an enlightning and entertaining site. I get news here that the major media won't touch with a ten-foot pole, or buries on page D-44 of the local fishwrap.

I would like to thank all the Fresno Patriots, whether they can make it out every week or only once in a while. It's easy to talk the talk, but not everyone can walk the walk.

And thank you to all who reply to the weekly thread, it lets us know that someone is taking notice and appriciates.

I'de like to congradulate President Bush for seeing this country through a recesion and terrorist attacks at the SAME TIME.

Either one of the these events would have weakened weaker souls, and I congradulate Bush on a job well done in good times and bad.

[tinacart]

You don't just rock, you "destroy!" Proud to know you!

[Fintan]

I’ve already been called every name in the book here on FR, and “toothless hag” is still my personal favorite.

Yeah, well imagine being called a drunken, ignorant Irishman.

I'm am not ignorant.

[kristinn]

Thanks, as always, for the kind words and support for the D.C. Chapter. We're coming up on our 4th anniversary and would not have been able to do the things we've done without the help and support of Free Republic, Jim, and our fellow FReepers.

We've been blessed to have such great people join us--like the Valentine brothers--who have contributed so much of their time and energy to to protect our freedoms and help turn this country back from the abyss.

[harrowup]

I especially wish to compliment all of the Conservatives, Republicans and Libertarians and all the other peasants assembled for showing such great restraint in resisting the temptation to laud me with praise and gratitude for my wisdom and guidance.

As one of the few Democrats on this board I am but your humble servant and seek only to assist you in your search for truth, honor and great government. You may have forgotten that had it not been for my insight and dedication that sob Clinton would never have been impeached.

Thank you again. Please do not send gifts this year again. I have all the raisins I need.

[dalebert]

Thanks to all at Freerepublic who keep the site going. I would also like to thank Summer for keeping education reform information flowing.

[lowbridge]

A BIG compliment to my friend Darth Sidious...thanks for being my friend :-)

Second Amendment dittos to a First Amendment Gal!

Jim Rob - We couldn't do it without you! You are John Galt #1, period.

Rika - Thanks for being there weeekdays at or about 1000 eastern time. Your words are fodder for my cannon and grist for my word mill. Without you I would write damn little poetry.

Slip18 - Thanks for holding down the great southwest.

CyberLiberty -You have an eye for arm candy.

XSMommy - You are the epitomy of Reas Ipso Locutor(sp). I love making you go to your dictonary. What does it take to file a writ of habeas corpus in your court? FReepmail me.

Constitution Day - Winston Churchill said that there are those whom it is acceptable to meet with and those it is acceptable to dine with. I will dine with you and yours at any time at any place. Your choosing!!!!!

One_Particular_Harbour - Is there a higher compliment I can pay a man who took my screen name before I could get it?

Hobbes1 - Lets do supper. Next time you are down at the shore, dinner and drinks are on me, period.

CholeraJoe - My life is in your hands. What higher compliment could a man pay a doctor? BTW - My GP completely concurs with your diagnosis. If you ever pay for a drink within an hour's drive, I'll beat the bartender.

TxBec - You are only the fourth female I have EVER said this to after Mrs. Palm and my two little girls, "You are my SUNSHINE, my only SUNSHINE....."

Keep it up Dubya...

Maxwell - I can think of several targets for your silver hammer. FReepMail me!

CyberLiberty - You have an eye for arm candy.

SeaDragon - You are like a retired sailor. Long time, NO Sea.

Argh - You have GOT to get over this hockey fixation although you are well positioned.

GrimReaper - Let's do lunch the next time you are down at the shore. Maybe I can bring GrimFReaper.

Coteblanche - I have never met you but from knowing CyberLiberty and meeting Slip18, you must be as beautiful as your posts.

Bobby Cook - You are built to last. What else can I say for an engineer?

Everybody Else - I don't know you well enough to abuse you in public but I would like to.

Garde la Foi, mes amis! Nous nous sommes les sauveurs de la République! Maintenant et Toujours!
(Keep the Faith, my friends! We are the saviors of the Republic! Now and Forever!)

This has just GOT to be the longest thread ever.

Thanks? Thanks to ALL OF YOU for the info, the debates, the insight, the opinions, the education, the entertainment, the laughs, the jokes, the pictures, the cartoons, the media for being such a hapless creature, to my friends who have shared here and have grown, to everyone for everything. I have learned a great deal and hope I have shared as well.

THANKS to Jim Robinson and crew for the vision, the work, and the personal sacrifice required to make such a site take hold and prosper. In the words of a friend of mine who turned me on to this site, "Way COOL!!!"

[Genesis defender]

A big thanks to WIMom for helping me with my resume while I was looking for work (now am looking again). She gave me some good tips!

[Smile-n-Win]

Thanks to God for creating this wonderful world and letting us enjoy life in it.
Thanks to American Conservatives for being so RIGHT about how we are meant to do so.
Thanks to the U.S. military for making sure we can do so.
Thanks to Mr. Robinson for creating and maintaining this riveting site, which is a very effective way of getting out the RIGHT message.
Thanks to all Freepers for embracing the RIGHT approach and keeping FR so bustling.

...and thanks to anniegetyourgun for this thread, of course! :-)

My compliments to rdb3 for being loud, proud, and yet still maintaining the ability to reach across a divide.
