Dang. I didn't check to see if I was granted amnesty until just now and it's too late to chat.
Hi, Howlin, how's it goin'?
Eat your heart out, TDE.
Love that "Loose lips sink ships" thingEy on the preview page.
To: Jim Robinson
580-3 sounds about right... nobody is buying this 'fraud' business either.

Free Republic is not the only conservative forum out there. Then why are you so damn obsessed with it? How about naming all the "other" conservative forums that are as good as you seem to think this one is.
BTW, I hope you're not including YOUR forum as one of them; I've seen it; pathetic.

JIM IS YOU EVER CLOSE THIS SITE DOWN, THEY WIN!!!
Gosh, this is the first place on the internet that was a voice for conservative minded people. It's a family affair here!! So many of our family reads this site daily!!
There really is no other place that has the kind of "news" that this site has, and always has had!!
There will forever be "Whiners".. "Boo hooo,.. I got banned and I'm not sure why.. where's the Freedom man" Types. They are FREE to not visit.
I have said before, we do get strange people here at times. But generally they come and go away when they are hit with logical debate.
IN MEMORY OF BARBARA OLSEN, CHIEF NEGOTIATOR, AND ALL THE OTHER WONDERFUL FREEPERS WHO ARE NOW GONE, BUT SUPPORTED AND PARTICIPATED IN THIS FORUM, .. THIS SITE MUST NEVER CLOSE!!!!
I urge you to have a banner where you have a link to donate. A permanent banner at the top of all forum topics. There has to be a way to do this, but allow you Jim to keep your dignity. I really hate that you must "by neccessity" come here and post WHY you need the money. We are all so lucky to have this site to visit.
Anyone with any common sense, knows this website cost money to run. But before you,.. before FOX news, this Nation was being brainwashed. Those who were concerned "were and are" grateful that Jim Robinson started FreeRepublic.
PLEASE PUT A BANNER AT THE TOP OF THE PAGE WITH AN EASY LINK FOR DONATING TO KEEP YOU RUNNING. IT COULD SAY SOMETHING LIKE "IF YOU LOVE FREEREPUBLIC, PLEASE HELP US CONTINUE BY DONATING GENEROUSLY".
I say continue with donations, until they aren't enough, then you will have to charge a monthly fee. We are all behind you Jim in whatever you have to do. This should be FUN,.. and not so stressful. You deserve better than that.
BTW,.. I could volunteer some time if you needed it to help in some way from home. Let me know, you've been here for us.. now let us be here for you.

"A Grand Deception?" the purpose of which deletion I was completely unable to understandI didn't understand why that one was pulled either.
I know one thing though, it would be incredibly tough for JimRob and the moderators to please everyone all of the time. If something gets pulled, I usually chalk it up to one or two people ruining the good things at the expense of others.
I think that was kindergarten 101. :-}
I for one am grateful that the moderators are here. I've seen a lot less disruption since they started.

You're interested in how I'm doing? That, in itself, is interesting.

Dear Mr. Robinson, You are a true patriot in every sense of the menaing of the word. I admire what you have done to keep those of us likeminded folks togther in our purpose of having access to news reports from all over the world and a forum to discuss them in. I have lived most of my life in Arkansas, up until recently one of the most corrupt states in the US. We had to deal with Bill Klinton for the longest period of time/.... I have made wonderful friends here at FR. Can't imagine what my life would be like with out them now. I realize I haven't done as much as I should to keep the bills paid, but I am a warrior out in the field of conservative issues and it costs money to be in the game and be effective!I wish I would win Powerball or the lottery and then could fund my activities and FR as much as I would like to. Maybe it is time to charge an annual membership fee same as Rush has, FR would be more appreciated and the disruptors would be less likely to get in and used up expensive bandwidth! God Bless, Miss Anne

Are you prohibited from selling t-shirts, hats, coffee mugs, stuff like? Surely not, but certainly I wouldn't be the first to have thought of that.
To: kayak
Thanks for the ping, kayak -- MEGA, MEGA PING COMING UP!
To: TKEman
Well paisano I am so elated that you decided not to post here(FreeRepublic), anymore.Who needs your kind of liberal garbage anyways! With your stupid attitude and condescending way of writing(like you are some superior being)do you really think you are going places?
Do I have to hammer into your thick skull that this is a PRIVATE place, not eligible for public disclosure.Which part of the "PRIVATE" you do not understand?(let me translate to you slowly...it is like a little dictatorship type, just like the army)nobody has to disclose one iota to anybody, not even to scheisters like you...got it?
Let make myself clear...take your little law crap, and shove it. I am eating little fishes like you for breakfast....

With all the filthy vitriol you spew over in your cess pool website, THAT is all you have to say? PATHETIC.

Hey Buckeroo. The answer is simple. Just stop attacking people and stop posting the four letter cuss words and you will not have so many problems. You might be surprised at how many people might like to read what you have to say (if you make it more pleasant for them to read it). Try it sometime. You might like it.
To: Howlin
If you have a free access site, you can't get mad....when people don't pay to visit!
Visting FR without paying is not a right, it's a privilege extended by the owner, so you have no reason to belittle them for accepting the privilege graciously.
To: Jim Robinson
No and No...
Thanks Jim!
PS. Don't get bothered by the disruptors on your site...YOU RUN A FREEREPUBLIC FORUM AND INVITE EVERYONE...OBVIOUSLY YOU ARE GOING TO HAVE SOME NUTS THAT DISAGREE/ARE JEALOUS/CORNY/ETC...you KNOW how much you're loved/needed...and I KNOW how much you appreciate us!

I've composed my reply. I also posted that I will not post on the thread again this evening. Let's see if the thread exists for a couple of days.
