A Few of FR's Finest....Every Day....03-18-03...To The Bushmobile, W04Man!

The Freedoms Foundation site at Valley Forge would have been ideal for the Rally had it been bigger with more parking.

Thousands were turned away because of lack of space.Tribune 7 and I stayed until near the end and Route 23 which runs through the park was still jammed with traffic and hikers, many carrying signs.

We got there early and watched as others tried to get in as we were leaving.

I asked a state trooper for a crowd estimate and he wouldn't even guess. I heard later estimates of anywhere from 6,000 to 15,000.

For those of us who were able to attend it was a wonderful day!

We met Freepers --Baseballmom, Abner, Victim of Circumstance, Taxman, and they were just as nice in person as they are on the net. I am sorry that we did not meet the many other Freepers who were there. We should have a plan to meet one another at the next affair.

The American Flag balloon went up, the signs were great, and we met heroes galore--including several decorated World War ll infantrymen. Let me repeat myself it was a wonderful day. I am sorry for all those who missed it.

Wonderful reading about you W04Man! Your website is awesome. I have added it to my favorites. Love this picture you have there of President Bush and Laura.

Sorry, I got so excited about my new dress that I completely forgot to tell you both what a great job you have done on today's tribute - nice write-up, Free - and, as always, Billie, a beautiful presentation.

I am having major computer problems. I.E. keeps freezing up on me. I just had a new motherboard installed and it hasn't run right since. After rebooting for the sixth time this morning, I have given up and managed to talk my mom into letting me use her machine. Grrrrrrrr!!

[Aeronaut]

Wow! Thanks.

[Mama_Bear]

Way to go, sweetiebear! : )

Thank you, Sweet Louie....LOVE that graphic! I am smiling real big! With your hugs and kisses and my new white dress, I am feeling very special and beautiful today!

Now, if I could just get my computer working, it would be a perfect day.

Big bear hugs to you. ((((((((((((Louie)))))))))))))))

Good grief, all our Hostesses lookin' so elegant and freepalicious, you almost gave me a heart attack...you shoulda put a "Cardiac Warning" on the headline...)

You are soooooo cute! LOL!

Good morning to you, jw. :-)

[Mama_Bear]

Thank you all for the Anniversary wishes. Five years! Doesn't seem possible....time sure flies when you're having fun! :-)

[Forgiven_Sinner]

Thanks so much Billie. The last time I got flowers was from my wife.

Since they're virtual, she probably won't get jealous. But watch it! ;) She's a red head.

Technically, it's over five years that I've been on FR. I lurked for two years (Jan 1998) before registering. I came here from Drudge during the IMPOTUS years. I saw Drudge remove FR from his links, but FR still has him linked. And FR is still better for breaking news--and links.

In the five years I've been on FR, my kids have gone from 5 to 10; 8 to 13; and 11 to 16. I've gone from 42 to 47.
I'm pleased that conservatism has come into ascendency, but I don't count on it continuing. The liberals are truly persistent, with the faith of true believers. If we do nothing, they will slip back into power. The country is aging, which is a conservative trend, but also acquiring immigrants, who often start out liberal.

FR has become my main web site. It is my home for news and comment. I didn't watch TV on the morning of 9/11; I stayed at my desk and read FR.

Lately, I've been linking to FR from the Yahoo bulletin boards. I cite the Iraqi/al Qaeda links. Some just ignorantly dismiss FR. So I link to the original articles.

I'm pleased to be on one of the top 500 sites in the Internet. Excelsior!

With your hugs and kisses and my new white dress,
I am feeling very special and beautiful today!

You should feel that way everyday. You 'are' *special and beautiful*. : )

Now, if I could just get my computer working, it would be a perfect day.

Hope you get straightened out....a real bummer when they act up. : (

Big bear hugs to you. ((((((((((((Louie)))))))))))))))

[Mama_Bear]

Hi Pippin!!! Thank you for that big hug. I can sure use hugs today, my computer is very sick. Fortunately my mother is letting me use hers, otherwise, I wouldn't be talkin' to you right now. :-(

((((((((((Pippin)))))))))))

[FreeTheHostages]

W04Man: Your site & your stickers are great! I have worn your stickers to GOP meetings & have urged many to visit your site!

Today is the best time to say W-04.....and thank God BUSH WON!

And today I adopted a Marine as my penpal! He's in Kuwait and is from the same place I grew up.

[Mama_Bear]
