Let's finish this one quickly so Jim can fully recover without hosting the fundraiser for two months! :) Thank you!! Wonderful graphic by RedMDer!

Woo-Hoo! Our 4th Quarter FReepathon is off to a great start, thanks to all of you who have made your donations in such a timely manner to help us try to complete this FReepathon this month, so that Jim can spend his time healing and recovering, instead of concerning himself with fundraising for the next 2 months! Jim is in the re-hab facility where is he learning to transfer himself. Once that part is completed, and provided he feels much better than he has these past couple of days, he should be set to go home in the very near future. Everyone, please understand, Jim's successful surgery was only the first step, albeit, the major one.

Get this! We already have 52 Donations of $100 or more and already have 21 New monthly Donors including 4 New $1-A-Day (or more) Donors! (Thank you so much DJMacWoW and TheOldLady for keeping the respective counts) And, at the pace we're going, we're averaging $2,000 per day in your awesome, generous donations! Thank you ALL very much!!!!

Now, about the $100 Donations and more! Every quarter, FReeper I_be_tc, challenges 300 FReepers to match her $100 donation. This Quarter, I kicked-off I_be_tc's $100 challenge to get things started, so please join me, if you possible can!

Please know, that $100. was a big stretch for me, but I want to try to get this FReepathon done quickly for Jim's sake; and I wanted you all to know that I'm not just asking you all to donate a little extra this time, I'm also donating more than my Monthly, as are the majority of Jim's FReepathon Team.

If you send in $100 or more per quarter, please send me a note (in Jim's temporary absence) and I'll add your screen name to the 300 Club Roster! And, please don't be shy about adding your name. We know you're humble and maybe even shy, but seeing your names on the Roster often times inspires others to join you!

Our New Monthly Donor Campaign is also rocking! We conduct this campaign because reliable Monthly Donations are an ideal way to support Free Republic. We already have 5 Very Generous FReeper Sponsors, Tijeras_Slim, upchuck, "somebody", Tijeras_Slim again, and Owen Kellogg for this Quarter's NMD Campaign!

All 5 FReeper Sponsors are donating $10.00 for each New Monthly Donor who signs up, so please consider Donating Monthly, if you can reliably do so! $15 a month is 50 cents a day. Please ask yourselves, "what is FR worth to you?" that you can reliably contribute every month?

Whether your donation is $5, $10, $20, $50, $100 or more, it all helps keep FR alive and is always sincerely and truly appreciated!!

In closing, I know, and we all know, that times are tough, unconscionably tough, but for Jim's sake, I'm asking you all to please dig deep and to please dig deep right away or as soon as you possibly can, so that Jim can have some peace of mind during his healing and recovery processes. You all know he wants to be here with us, and he is, whenever he's able.

In Jim's temporary absence, Just Amy, (whom you all know and adore) is posting the incoming. She is Jim's life-long, close friend and also his business partner and FR's bookkeeper. So please, let's get keep those donations coming in!

We Can Do This, provided We ALL pitch in right away.

Please always remember, $25 keeps FR ALIVE!!

Thank you all so very much!!
Thank you all so very much for your prayers for Jim.
Please continue to pray for Jim and his cherished family.
Thank you all so much for your donations!!!
YOU make Free Republic possible!!!
Our good Lord is listening and answering our prayers.

God bless and keep you all and everyone you love.

I saw the pictures of Jim .... I just didn’t notice that you didn’t put his name under them. When I got to Sheila, I said to meself ... “Okay .... where is Jim?”.

If you take that picture down, she will probably continuing fighting Sheila for the chair next to you at the next dinner. :)

[Syncro]

She is going to hate you for taking and posting that picture. Did you pinch her before you snapped it?

No, she just loves the camera.

Once she saw the camera was pointed in her direction, she started "posing."

Maybe she will give me this look of approval?

Oops, 3 and 4, not five!

Sorry thypo, but I see you found it

[Syncro]

LOL thanks Jim, my pleasure...

[JustAmy]

Yep ... she is a real camera hog. Have you seen her Facebook page. She will pose for pictures anytime.

She does silly in addition to serious and flirty. I didn’t ping her because she might decide to check in. She hasn’t been here for a long time. Her friends are all on Facebook.

“It's time we asked ourselves if we still know the freedoms intended for us by the Founding Fathers. James Madison said, "We base all our experiments on the capacity of mankind for self-government." This idea that government was beholden to the people, that it had no other source of power, is still the newest, most unique idea in all the long history of man's relation to man. This is the issue of this election: Whether we believe in our capacity for self-government or whether we abandon the American Revolution and confess that a little intellectual elite in a far-distant capital can plan our lives for us better than we can plan them ourselves. (October 27, 1964)” Ronald Reagan

Honor, justice, and humanity, forbid us tamely to surrender that freedom which we received from our gallant ancestors, and which our innocent posterity have a right to receive from us. We cannot endure the infamy and guilt of resigning succeeding generations to that wretchedness which inevitably awaits them if we basely entail hereditary bondage on them. - Continental Congress Declaration, 1775

"And there are a whole bunch of members of Congress right now who privately will tell you, I know our positions are unreasonable, but we're scared that if we don't go along with the tea party agenda, or the -- some particularly extremist agenda, that we'll be challenged from the right. And the threats are very explicit. And so they toe the line. And that's part of why we've seen a breakdown of just normal routine business done here in Washington on behalf of the American people".
