[BADJOE]

I am not going away from FR.

Like Jim, it is my life.

As the fundraiser I felt it necessary to stay in the background and not raise any problems. It was not a real comfortable position, 'cause I like to discuss the issues.

I will be more free to participate and for that I am grateful.

Joe, I come here once or twice a day to read through fifty or so posts. I add a little, but mostly I just read. I've got to tell you that I haven't a clue what you are talking about. Was there a fight I missed? I suppose it's a good thing I missed it, but if it was an important fight, I may have weighed in...

TO ALL: I have met Badjoe and JimRob. It's my considered judgement that we at Free Republic would not be here without JimRob and without Badjoe to help keep the lights on. Who would we argue with, pray with, give advice to, and accept advice from? Where would we go to get the insights that are NOT provided on CNNABCNBCCBS? I hope that whatever the ruckus is about, it's small enough that we can still see the big picture. I, for one, will double my monthly commitment in order to do my part to keep this information source open.

Thanks all and Be Well...
