FReepathon: Our new Donation System is Ready to Roll! -- Thread Four
Donate to Free Republic via our Secure Server ^ | Jim Robinson

Posted on 10/04/2002 6:44:43 PM PDT by Mo1

Welcome to the New Free Republic Donation System!

John has programmed a great new donation system for us. It can accept credit cards or PayPal donations and will eventually also accept electronic checks. We have installed a new secure server system and have contracted with Authorize.net to do the actual credit card processing, and, of course, PayPal will process the PayPal donations through their system.

I've changed the links on our front page to link to the new program:

Donate Here By Secure Server

If you have bookmarks to the old system, please update to the new. The old system will be discontinued.

Take a test drive through the new system if you haven't already, and notice that it has several new features and reports available, including scoreboard, current stats, our budget and a faq. It's live now, so if you enter a donation it's for real (and thank you very much if you do).

John will continue making enhancements to the new system as we go, but the basic program is ready to go, and is live, and on the air.

We've decided to roll out our 4th quarter fundraiser with the new system on a late Saturday afternoon, as Saturday's are slow days and we might as well be gentle while breaking in the new system.

Thank you John for the new system! Great work!

Thank you BadJoe, WillaJohns, WIMom and all of the dedicated hardworking volunteers on the fundraising team who have helped us so much with these FReepathons in the past.

And thank you all for your continuing efforts! Without your dedication and hard work, FR could not stay on the air.

And thank you FReepers! Without your continued participation and financial support there would be no Free Republic!

A note to current monthly donors: We will need you to re-enter your recurring monthly donation to the new system, but please do not do it yet. Joe just processed your September donations on the 20th of September. The new system processes your donation on the day it is entered, so please wait until later in October to start your monthly on the new system. Also, please let BadJoe know via FReepmail (and please include your real name so he can match it with your credit card info in his file) after you re-enter your monthly donation so he can take you off his list. At the end of October, he will email all of those on his list who have not contacted him to remind them of the new system. Thank you very much for your continued support.

A note to prospective new monthly donors: We have included a list of our fixed monthly expenses as well as an estimate of our non-recurring expenses on our budget page of the donation system. We've also included an estimate of our current recurring monthly donations from our monthly donors. If and when the total of the recurring monthly donations ever meets our monthly expenses, there will no longer be a need for these FReepathons. It can happen someday. Thank you for considering a regular monthly contribution.

Note to all: We are looking forward to an exciting and rewarding election cycle. I know that we are not all in full agreement on this, but I sincerely believe that we have an excellent opportunity with this election to set the liberals back many years. And I also believe that winning this election in a big way for the conservatives will be the spark that allows our fight to return the Constitution to its rightful place as the Supreme Law of the Land to really get off the ground. I sincerely believe this is essential in our fight to secure our Liberty!

We hold the White House and the House of Representatives. If we re-take the majority in the Senate, it will be one of the very rare times in our history that the conservatives have held the majority control in all departments.

I see this as a gift from God. A majority means that the conservatives will chair the various committees of Congress and can set the legislative agenda. And, perhaps more importantly, a majority in the Senate will make it much more likely that President Bush's appointments will be confirmed.

This means we will be able to start replacing some of the liberal judicial activists on the bench with conservatives (don't tell Daschle & Co. that) and perhaps we will finally have a real shot at actually overturning some of the liberal bunk that has been foisted on us over the last century or so. How about overturning Roe vs Wade? With the current mood of the populace and with a conservative Senate, I think it can be done!

Remember, the liberals have controlled all or most of our government for at least 80 of the last 100 years. No wonder we are in such a mess today. This is the best opportunity we've ever had to reverse it in a big way. Kick the liberals out! Take control of the Senate and replace the liberal judiciary. This alone will set liberalism back thirty to forty years!

We must not fail to take advantage of this opportunity. Daschle and Company sense their days are numbered and are in a panic. Now is the time to redouble our efforts and throw these bums out!

I expect the volume on Free Republic to pick-up substantially as we head into the final weeks and days of the campaign season. And I expect exciting things will be happening for for all of us!

Thank you all very much!

God bless you all and may God continue to bless America!

Need help, please:

1. How do I change the link on my profile page to the new secure server? [Keep it simple, please -- I'm a PC dunce -- a FRiend set up my current link]

2. I'd like the link to be FRee Republic's Logo rather than just a word or two. Can do please?

Thanks in anticipation -- B A

If it had had something to do with what we were discussing, then I could see the link. But seeing as how we were discussing fighter aircraft, I don't see the link.

Hahah....Oh..fighter aircraft? Not a plane huh? Sorry to dissappoint you Bobby...but a plane is a plane to ne... that parody was about a plane - delta...how did you miss that connection? And I received it in an email ...that hour - from a friend..I can prove it if I trusted you with my email names.....but I don't....But you just keep making a big deal out of it...and make it into something it isn't. It was an off the cuff post. Movin on.

Did anyone figure out what that thing is?

no, but it's from here...
it would appear to be a photo of research equipment taken by someone who was stationed in antarctica.
don't ask me how i bumbled across it in the first place. it came from where pics come from,
you know, the internet. : o|

Delta is a company, not a plane. That wasn't a parody, it was a piece of racist garbage. Thanks for showing your true colors.

Hi Brian,

I am also a PC dunce, so I just bookmarked the URL on my home page:

https://secure.freerepublic.com/donate/donors

There are a lot of really savvy FReepathon volunteers, so you'll probably get a reply on how to post a picture. I'd like to learn, too.

If you don't get an answer from someone on the thread, Freepmail John when the fundraiser is over and I'm sure he'll be glad to provide the necessary steps.

The easiest way to make a link would probably be like this:

<a href="https://secure.freerepublic.com/donate/"> Click here to donate</a>

The result will look like this:

Pain in the A$#."

Thank you Mr. Clinton for all you've worked hard, worked harder than ever before to create the big mess we find ourselves living in today.

Thank God that a fine and outstanding patriotic citizen, Jim Robinson, our gracious and dedicated web host, worked hard using his own two hands to create this fabulous web site as a means for CyberPatriots to get the lastest, most up-to-date news, data, input, discussions, photos, cartoons, alerts, and many other exciting and vitally important information so that we can keep informed and aware of all of the things that shape the world and times we live in.

The lights of FReedom burn brightly on the FreeRepublic Forum Threads. But it takes fuel to keep the lights on at the FReeRepublic and Jim Robinson's door open 24/7!

Please help today--Donate and Bump to keep Truth Marching On!

Do Not Disturb
I'm Disturbed Enough Already.

Yeah, we know it's no secret. You are always so concerned, disappointed, or extremely disturbed. Obstructing the President's judicial nominees and vital national security legislation must really be awfully perplexing to someone in your obviously overly stressed mental condition.

Don't ya worry though, We the People, have the FReeRepublic. This is where it is at, pal. Liberty Shines here. Freedom Reigns here. No Jive--just pure heavenly beautiful Truth!

So even though Tom probably will never know what precious riches await those who visit the FReeRepublic, but truly, if you are concerned and disturbed by the lack of honesty from our elected officials and over abundance of left-wing propaganda that infiltrates your television news and newspapers, FreeRepublic offers all that you can ever expect and more in providing the right cure!

So don't be disturbed Mr. Daschle...FreeRepublic has it all covered right here!

Donate and Bump!
