A Few of FR's Finest....Every Day
Free Republic made its debut in September, 1996, and the forum was added in early 1997. Over 100,000 people have registered for posting privileges on Free Republic, and the forum is read daily by tens of thousands of concerned citizens and patriots from all around the country and the world.
A Few of FR's Finest....Every Day was introduced on June 24, 2002. It's only a small room in JimRob's house where we can get to know one another a little better; salute and support our military and our leaders; pray for those in need; and congratulate those deserving. We strive to keep our threads entertaining, fun, and pleasing to look at, and often have guest writers contribute an essay, or a profile of another FReeper.
On Mondays please visit us to see photos of A FEW OF FR'S VETERANS AND ACTIVE MILITARY
If you have a suggestion, or an idea, or if there's a FReeper you would like to see featured, please drop one of us a note in FR mail.
We're having fun and hope you are!

~ ~ ~Where Were You?~ ~ ~
Where were you when the sky rained down liquid fire and lost souls; when the air billowed poison, when sirens wailed and cries echoed urgently and painfully? Never forget....
Where were you when, with a thunderous roar, monsters of steel and glass crumbled to the earth belching black gaseous clouds as thick and as dark as satan's cloak? Never forget....
Where were you when eerie silence fell like winter's first snowfall; when voices and spirits were stilled forever in unadorned and involuntary graves? Never forget....
Where were you when satan's children laughed and danced in streets of candy while families mourned eternal emptiness, longing for just one last chance to say, "I love you?" Never forget....

God Bless Our Military
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Below are names of some of our FReepers' loved ones who are serving our country. If you have someone you would like to add, please address a post to Billie; Dansangel; Dutchess; Mama_Bear; Aquamarine and we will add their name to this list. As we pray for them, we pray also for all our nations leaders, and military personnel, and their families and friends. May God hold them close to His heart.
~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~
We ask Lord, that You guide the leaders of our great country in their hour of decision. The burden that has been placed on their shoulders is overwhelming. We ask that with Your infinite wisdom You guide them gently to the right decisions.
Please give us the strength, Lord, to get through each difficult and devastating day that faces each of us and our country. Protect and guide our Military that are now being called to duty, strengthen them in their trials and temptations; give them courage to face the perils which beset them; and grant them a sense of your abiding presence wherever they may be; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

I just love your animated collage. Thank you, too for the use of your beautiful Lady Liberty and Uncle Sam graphic.
The feelings and graphics that people are sharing today are wonderful. We must always remember the people who sacrificed all on 9-11-01 as well as those who have sacrificed their all ever since to keep us out of harm's way.

Hard to believe it's been two years - it all comes back like it was just the other day. We will never, ever forget 9/11. Thank you all for these very poignant posts of remembrances, graphics, tributes. It means a lot to us that you're sharing them here with us.

Hey dansy. I sure do. That picture was actually taken on my first visit to the WTC with my wife. We were only just school friends at the time and she was from out of state so I wanted to show her around NYC and what better place to start then downtown. Looking up at the WTC like that when I was a kid (and all the way up to thatday) was always a favorite thing of mine to do. Looking straight down was another favorite thing to do. So I snapped that picture as I was looking up. It was the last I would ever see the WTC in person. My wife took her brother back in 2001 before we got married but I don't think she took any pictures.
I will miss that view but the picture and my memories will always help me to remember.

Oh dansy. What a beautiful tribute today. The whole day was so surreal. I watched a little of the memorial this morning as children, relatives of the victims, repeated the name of each of the victims and just cried. Thank you for bringing us this beautiful thread today.
Back later.

What a touching post today in remembrance of the horrible attack on America, the lives lost and the families torn apart two years ago. Dansangel, the words you've written and the time you've taken to put together this memorial post is appreciated.
I have read all the comments on this thread and have been moved to tears. Thank you all for the poems, the links, the graphics, but most of all, thank you for sharing yourselves through your heartfelt remembrances.
I am at a loss for words. I can't add anything that hasn't already been so eloquently said, so I will just leave this graphic.
I will never forget.
I will continue to support our President.
I will continue to support our military.

Dansy, you did a wonderful job with "Where Were You?" Those words sure bring back memories from that awful day.
I find this photo posted on America Remembers September 11, 2001 thread incredibly moving.

Hi, Lori!
Your graphic is more elegant and says more than mere wordt, as beautiful as they are, can ever tell.
