HELP KEEP THE LIGHTS ON: First Quarter '03 FReepathon Now Underway .. Thread 6

.... ...
The Free Republic first quarter '03 FReepathon is now underway!

Our goal for this fundraiser is the same as last quarter: $65,000. We have about $4,000 per month coming in from monthly donors so we will need to raise approx $53,000 to hit the target.
The funds raised through these fundraisers are used to pay our operating costs. Free Republic operates on an approximate $260,000 annual budget (breakdown here) and all funds are provided by donations from FReepers and Lurkers.

Thank you all very much for your continued support.
P.S. We are planning to make FreeRepublic.com email addresses available as a thank you to all who donate at least once per year. This new feature should be ready to go within a few days. We will post a notice and a link for donors to setup their FR email address as soon as it's ready.
Donate to FR and help us keep the lights on for the best political forum on the NET!

Morning all. I've given my donation (though I might pry open the wallet a bit more down the home stretch), but thought I'd ask if anyone knows of a thread with all the great slogans that were displayed at the Patriots rally. They make great taglines. Samples:

Pacifists are the parasites of Freedom
We gave peace a chance, what we got was 9/11
If you must burn the flag, wrap yourself in it

Others??

(p.s. this is also posted on the Patriots Rally for America thread)

[Gabz]

I've got no clue whether they are going to be coming today or not - so I've got to make this place presentable - which means I will probably be a bit scarce - but will check back as often as I can!!!!!

FREEPERS ROCK!!!!!!!
