We lost one this week with the reelection of Speaker Boehner, but we've got to continue the fight. We hold the majority in two thirds of the states and we must keep the pressure on. We the people through our state legislatures have the power to restore the constitution and right the Republic--if we overcome our fear of using it. It's more obvious than ever that our congress is totally lost to big government statism--even with the Republicans (the GOPe wing of the uniparty) in charge. It's time we reassert our sovereign power through our states and reclaim our Republic! Stand up, speak up and take it back!

And it's now more important than ever that we keep our internet communications channel well funded and in fighting trim!!

FR is funded solely by contributions made by the liberty loving patriots who enjoy and use it.

We are beholden to no political party.

No advertisers, no outsiders, no sugar daddies, no corporate string pullers.

No commercial ads. No annoying pop-ups. No ad tracking. No mail campaigns. No spam.

Definitely no government subsidies or tax breaks.

We are self-funded, fiercely independent and enjoy our freedom to speak plainly in the support of God, family, country, liberty!!

But we cannot exist without you.

Every donation counts no matter how big or small. If you can donate $5, $10, $20, $100 or more, it would be greatly appreciated.

Your loyal support makes Free Republic possible and your continuing participation makes FR the number one pro-life, pro-family, pro-small government, pro-defense conservative forum on the Net!!

And we're going to need FR now more than ever to combat the current crop of Marxists and progressives who have infested our government and public institutions and who are dead set on destroying the final remnants of our cherished constitution and our precious God-given liberty!!

Please click the secure server link above or donate by mail to: Free Republic - PO Box 9771 - Fresno, CA 93794

Make it a monthly if you can. We have some very generous FReeper sponsors kicking in an extra ten bucks for every new monthly signed up and we now have 1 new monthly this quarter

Or send in a hundred dollars or more per quarter and join I_be_tc's growing list of 300 Club patriots. I_be_tc sends in $100 per quarter and challenges 300 others to do the same. And we have received 37 donations of $100 or more so far this quarter. If we could get 300 FReepers to send in $100 per quarter, these FReepathons would complete much faster.

Send in 25 and help keep freedom alive!!

Thank you all very much!!

God bless.

Remember the thing about America’s development of the space pen? When NASA first started sending up astronauts, they quickly discovered that ballpoint pens would not work in zero gravity. To combat the problem, NASA scientists spent a decade and $12 billion to develop a pen that writes in zero gravity, upside down, underwater, on almost any surface including glass and at temperatures ranging from below freezing to 300 C. The Russians used a pencil.

Love is the glue that binds us together





Lessons From A Tortoise
 
  When trouble attacks, I make no noise
Simply take on the foe with poise.
Curling into a ball
I retreat into my shell
The hard familiar territory
Makes me resolute that after this hell
All shall be well.

They kick me and toss me around.
Take my heart and break it in two.
Hurt of violence only we victims know
Scaring us to death, the oppressors go.
But I don’t fear them now
As I am faith bound
For the key to survival I have found.

I learnt this defense from a tortoise
Enter your shell don’t think twice,
Harden against your enemy
And plot your counter-attack.
Do not forget to take it slow and steady
It will win you the race
And your hardened shell-like-mask
Might just be the saving grace.

Don’t mock the ‘tortoise’ you ‘cruel rabbits’
They’ll make a comeback and tear you to bits.
We, the so-called meek have learnt our Lessons from a tortoise.
When trouble attacks, we’ll make no noise
Entering our shell we will retaliate and take on the foe with poise
Now before you rabbits begin your brutal games
It’s your time to think twice


(26 June 2006.)

Pretty to look at, age and wisdom prefers the pictures to frigid adventures.

Very interesting. That old tortoise shell can certainly protect us if
we make use of it. Metaphorically, of course, but still great advice.
