Jim and John, I am in awe of you. Y'all have provided one of the greatest services to America in our time, a time in which it is sorely needed. While I know that it must be an overwhelming task much of the time, you must be extremely proud of what you have accomplished as captain and co-captain of the mighty "Battleship Free Republic." I love you both for providing a place to not only come together as soldiers in the war to save America, but a sanctuary where our hearts can be strengthened, our skills honed and where the spirit of liberty can be nurtured. I look forward to the day when I can meet you both in person. Until then, *HUGE HUGS* of appreciation. Long live our Free Republic!
Congratulations to you, each and everyone of you for doing your part to focus America's consciousness on the most shameful abuse of authority in the history of American governance.
A total of one hundred and forty-seven ( 147 ) of you took the time to rally Americans within your sphere of influence to the gross injustice being perpetrated within one state of our great country.
While we shook a collective finger of distain at the State of Florida, we also recognize the greed of a financially lucrative body parts industry, and the incredulous potential for extortion of wealth from the elderly and similarly vulnerable victims within 'the system'. They are like clay in the hands of the unscrupulous leaches in government and organized religion in every state, county and community of our country.
In His way our Heavenly Father gave each of you a very special task of bringing this evil into the light. And you responded admirably in questioning the legitimacy and morality of actions taken by those acting in our name - actions no fair minded American Citizen would approve or condone.

Read it again. Slowly.

Jim Robinson and his family have steadily performed this Herculean task for years, and it's only when you take a hard look at a small (comparatively) body of work, as contained in Terri's Threads on FreeRepublic.com do you begin to grasp the volume of communication we 'expect' of them. Give it a minute to open up. It's a big file.
While at the same time it is at a time like this that I deeply sense the 'Terri' effort is a vivid representation the 'true grit' of the American spirit - our collective willingness to challenge injustice of any kind, anywhere.
I've got to tell you, I've got a tear in my eye right now about how proud I am to be able to call myself an American.
There are times when some of what we hear from foreigners about ourselves is true - that we may be a lot of things, but we will not - WE WILL NOT - stand by and watch anyone treated like they're more contemptible than the lowest creature on earth. Especially and I mean especially within our own Christian nation.
They took the manger away from us, and they've taken a lot away from us that made us proud of our flag and our country. But as for me, the Baby Jesus and the whole manger set will be on my front lawn this Christmas.
Once again, God bless each and everyone of you for all you're doing to stop the fast buck body snatchers and dumb ass politico's from attacking the very people who did their fair share when it was their turn to stand up for America.
They're old and defenseless now, and we owe them. We owe them big time to be sure they live that's l-i-v-e folks, NOT die with dignity.
Thank God Almighty for the presence of men and women like the Robinson family for creating FreeRepublic.com to give America a nudge once in a while. We're all too busy working a couple of jobs in every family to keep an eye on the dummies we misname. There is nothing 'honorable' about Judge Greer, and the trouble is the more we look into this sewer 'system' the more scum we're finding.
Once again FReepers, I want to take this time to say that in spite of the fact that it seems some of you have trouble getting your head through a doorway, it's obvious your heart's where it needs to be.
I'm glad to be walking with you!!!

Well, it does affect me, even if this were ONLY about Terri it would affect me. Terri's fight for life is about me, my family , my friends and my children. It is about my fellow country men and what my ancestors died for.
I will not let any oppurtunity to turn this tide in Terr'i's favor slip through my fingers. I am so thankful that you , and many other freepers won't either.
SO , thank you Robert Drobot for putting my feelings into words as well.
I join you in thanking again, Jim Robinson for his foresight, and hard work with this websight. I am certain that our country would be suffering intolerable destruction without the ability to communicate with each other and FIGHT it.
May God keep you all as you strive to return America back to the great nation it was long ago, and it was always meant to be.
Jim and John-this grabbed my heart. Robert Drobot and Sweetliberty express so well how much this has meant for many of us here....I am sending you cyber hugs of great intensity...Thank you, forever, and as Aloha Ronnie is always saying...NEVER FORGET...and I won't. Ever.-Lynn in Indy
The evil in this case will not prosper but will be defeated. Why?
Because of all you good men who did something!
God Bless everyone who stood up for what was right.
