When Jim Robinson started Free Republic in September, 1996 to expose the corruption in government and particularly the Clinton Whitehouse, he was alone. Now six years later, Free Republic has 80,000 registered members and who knows how many visit this site often, just to keep up on the latest conservative thinking.
Folks, you all know where this is going, Free Republic is a user supported website and it is time to support it. Four times a year we have this freepathon to donate a few dollars to pay for the bandwidth and expenses necessary to keep Free Republic online, and we do so with gratitude and cheer because of what is offered and accomplished by the existence of Free Republic.
Free Republic does not charge a membership fee or get supported by a government grant. No, people from across the World make donations large and small because they see the value of Free Republic. So if you're one that appreciates this site and want to see it continue, please send in a few dollars to help keep it alive.

The History of FreeRepublic Thank you, Lazamataz, for FRhistory as you recall it.
And, for your allowing 'my entry' into your account--
"While we are waiting for the 'official' FR record, I'll give you what I can remember from the stories about my ancestor, d14lies, who, it is said, was present in the Garden with Adam and Eve.
You ask about 'political controversy'. There was none until Eve picked up the premier issue of the 'Garden Gazette' at the grocery check-out. It was put out by some down-on-his-luck angel turned snake.
As it happened, Eve couldn't resist the temptation of the 'fruitcake'. When God recognized what had happened, he called Adam to account, and the first liberal came into being. He said that it wasn't his fault.
Thus ended the first and best welfare state man has ever known. And, rather than returning to God, liberal man has been trying to recreate the goodness of that 'original state' in one of his own.('Political Controversy', the original PC was born)
Had FreeRepublic been there to counter the 'lies' of the Garden Gazette, Eve most likely would have known the 'higher quality' of truth and Cain might have been Abel."
