I just looked at your home page; you have been busy on Free Republic since your sign-up day. This is such a great place to spend quality time. Thank you for the words of President Bush at Ft. Hood. Reading those words made me want to stand and salute!

Thanks!
I regret all those years I didn't know about this site. I often think back that I had to rely on Chris Matthews for info on the 2000 Presidential election and the aftermath, before we had FNC on our cable. How great it would have been to have a live thread to go to! I, of course, would have turned into a Howard Hughes recluse, huddled in front of my computer. (My husband thinks that I am turning into that now, but I still get enouth H.O.S.--Husband Over Shoulder reading.)
