It would be easier to ask which FReepers I don't admire, because that list is exceedingly small. I admire ANYONE who is willing to be active for a cause they believe in, even if I happen to disagree with a given person on a given issue. Far, far too many Americans fail to fit civic affairs into their busy lives because they simply don't seem to realize how important it is.

On FR, I especially admire each person who may not have a gift for expressive writing, but who sticks to it and makes their points. It's not the beauty of how something is expressed that matters in the end, but what is expressed.

On FR, I also especially admire each person who will not give up on President Bush, even if they may have one or more points of disagreement with GWB. I admire people with clear-eyed common sense and an understanding of just what a precious, rare gift our Founding Fathers bequeathed to us. And I admire people who understand and accept our duty to preserve this incomparable nation for our descendants, and to teach our children to cherish it as we do.

The list of people on FR who meet this discription is long. Most will be mentioned in posts by others. So I just want to say a sincere, "Thank you, all. I am proud to be in your company."

Last, but certainly not least, in light of world events since 9/11, the FReepers I admire most are those who are either in active military service themselves, or who have a close relative in the service. God bless you all. There are no words to express my gratitude.

Wolfstar, you have said what is in my heart about the people here on FR. Each is unique in his or her own way.

Thank you for expressing it so clearly for me.
