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!

Bush - Cheney 04

Welcome to TGIF at the Finest!   We hope you've been having as much fun as we have with our essays and/or spotlight on various FReepers. From the beginning, we've been kicking back on Saturdays and Sundays and simply reviewing the features of the week; our weekend threads now start on Friday and continue through Sunday. If you missed seeing any of this week's threads and want to say hello there now, just click on the link for that particular day. If you'd like to drop in and out of this thread today through Sunday, please feel free to do that also. One of us will try to be around to see the welcome mat is still out, put the coffee pot on, and maybe even bring fresh flowers for the table. : )

Morning Wolfie!..Nervous Nellie here!

[ST.LOUIE1]

Morning, sweet...

[ST.LOUIE1]

Nervous Nellie here!

LOL!!

Not to worry, GW will do just fine.

Well, he can't do worse than last time. LOL

[MEG33]

I don't support W because he is eloquent and slick..or wears power ties...I just don't want him to allow Kerry to slide by without a hit on his record.

[ST.LOUIE1]

I just don't want him to allow Kerry to slide by without a hit on his record.

That was the problem last debate. He has to SLAM kerry's record. Go after him like a dog after a pork chop. : )

Maybe kerry will come across as the 'slickster' he really is. Missouri is the 'Show Me' state.
He'd better have more than a "power tie" going for him. ( I hope he doesn't. ) : )

[deadhead]

I join you in Prayers for President Bush. He will do great, I think this is a forum he is much more comfortable in.

[deadhead]

Thank You so much, wolfie. The graphic is beautiful. Jeez, I am a bit taken back by the birthday wishes today, they are appreciated!

[deadhead]

Aww, so cute, Billie. Thank you so very much! Will be celebrating my birthday at home tonight, and yes...we will all be cheering on President Bush :-)

[ST.LOUIE1]

You're very welcome, Colleen.

*You* are special so you get special day stuff. : )

I've about got all the things done to go. And have been FReeping a lot. Off for a nap so I won't fall asleep during the debate from sKerry's BORING voice.

[Billie]

Thanks, I'm going to bookmark that. :)

[Billie]

Aww, so cute, Billie. Thank you so very much! Will be celebrating my birthday at home tonight, and yes...we will all be cheering on President Bush :-)

Hope you have a really nice day, Colleen, and thank you for being special to us.

Thanks for your mail this morning - that was sweet of you. I didn't answer your other one about online polls either - but I certainly agree with you and your brother!

[Billie]

Off for a nap so I won't fall asleep during the debate from sKerry's BORING voice.

LOL! We've been very quiet here while you napped! Tonight I expect to *not* be very quiet!

Hi, Billie. TGIF for sure. I'm so looking forward to gone on vacation for a week. I'll try stopping by during next week. Love your little 'Guess What?' girl.

Hi, Texagirl - hope you have fun in New Orleans; glad to hear you will try to stop in while you're gone.

I think the little red-haired girl is so cute, too - wolfie found it for me, and we both think it reminds us of our sweet Pip!

[Kitty Mittens]

I pray that the Lord sustains and strengthens President Bush. Oh Lord, grant him wisdom, clarity of thought, and protection from his enemies. Amen.

Amen.

Adding my amen to yours, dear Meg!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY COLLEEN!
