Be proud Don't Apologize
Joe Phillips | 3-6-02 | Joe Phillips

Posted on 03/06/2002 9:58:46 AM PST by BADJOE

Freepers-----Lurkers----- Supporters I have a message for you.

Every time we have a Freepathon I get hundreds of donations for very small amounts, with the statement " I'm sorry I couldn't give more.

When this statement comes in I type on the thank you note " Every Donation Helps BigTime" I have to type this so often I'm thinking of putting it on every thank you note, because it would save time. However, I realize some folks need an extra "pat on the fanny". : )

What I'd really like you to understand is that it was embarrassing for me to write the thank you to some donors when they put in the second and third and fourth $500 or $1,000 donations to get us to our goal and keep FR alive. I did not have to do that in the December Freepathon, nor will I have to do that this time, because of all the $5.00 and 10.00 donations.

You are the backbone of the Free Republic. Freeper is a very proud name. Stand tall, put your chest out, and know that your country knows you care. You are one of a very elite, very small percentage (2%) who care enough to help. God Bless you. Our countery needs you, and the Free Republic knows you are the heart and sole of America.

Well, I'm sorry to hear that. It's regretful that so much sorrow must be expressed in one apology. ;^)

Well, I WAS married for a few years. I learned right quick how to offer the effusive apology now and again. It doesn't matter who was right or wrong. It's always the man's fault. Especially a white man like me. I was at fault in my marriage, and responsible for pretty much all sins of the Western world, including slavery, Mulsim persecution, massacre of Native Americans, My Lai, you name it.

Sorry for the rant. D'oh! I did it again!

5,000 Freepers who care are needed now!

Bumping for new $5 monthlies! Please join Grampa Dave's team!! Your $5 per month donation will be greatly appreciated!

An excerpt from Grampa Dave's Free Republic Lifeform post:

"This is a wonderful description of what Free Republic really is. It is a living and evolving Life Form to battle the left wingers and those who would destroy this country!...

Free Republic needs a constant infusion of cash to keep the Free Republic Life Form alive, viable and to grow. If we believe in Free Republic, we must donate each month or quarterly to keep this incredible life form alive... Good stewardship is what this world needs, not good intentions. Good conservative stewards will insure that the Free Republic Life Form continues to grow, be viable and thrives!"


The Free Republic Life Form continues to grow -- A $5 per month "infusion" will make a difference!!

For legal reasons, FR cannot require users to pay a fee -- unless it ceases to post full text articles, a change which the management is adamantly against (and I agree with them).
