A Few of FR's Finest..... ......Every Day
FR is a Treasure Trove of talented, compassionate, patriotic, wonderful people who gather every day to discuss the latest news and issues; salute and support our military and our leaders; tell a few jokes; learn a new word; write poetry; pray for those in need; and congratulate those who are deserving. Thank you, Jim Robinson, for giving us the vehicle in which we can express ourselves.
Free Republic made its debut in September, 1996, and the forum was added in early 1997. I can remember lurking when there were only a few regulars who posted, and now there are over 60,000 who have registered for posting privileges. 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 November 11, 2001
So many people have written me since my original Veteran's Day Tribute, asking how they, or a loved one, could be included in that tribute. Since I can no longer add the photos to the body of the thread, I've been including them in additional posts as I received enough to make another collage.
Still that doesn't seem to be enough. I think there's never been a better nor more appropriate time to keep the faces of our own Veterans and Active Military in front of FReepers--every day! That's why I wanted to do yet another Daily Thread .....ABOUT FReepers .....and FOR FReepers. But not only about our Military FReepers; for all FReepers! Wouldn't it be nice to get to know a few of the other FReepers as well? That's why, in addition to seeing FR's Finest Military Personnel every day, I thought it might be fun to feature a different FReeper (or FReepers) each day. If you would like to be pictured, or know someone who would, please FReepmail me and we'll turn the spotlight - on YOU - for the day!
And do let me know if you'd like your picture added to the groups of Veterans/Active Military below. I will keep this page updated, and continue to add them to the comment section of the original Veteran's Day thread as well.

I'm Proud To Be A Freeper Because......
I get to meet people like this: mtngrl@vrwc, JustAmy, Mama_Bear, and Senorita, a few of the FResno FReepers who give their time every Friday night to gather in support of our troops. I want to thank you and all of the other FResno FReepers for your dedication. (Oh, and contrary to what you might hear from ST.LOUIE1, it really isn't true they only attend the rallies for the cookies!) :)
Be sure and read about the Tailgate Party and Rally coming up next month. Call and make your reservations to attend. Click on the photo below for more information.

Hi Dave! Good seeing you.
Teacup, my prayers are with you and yours. May God send little Billy home very soon.

What a beautiful thread! Thanks for inviting me to come see it!
There are so many fine Freepers! I have a bumper sticker on my truck that says:

Indeed I have!
To: Billie; Scuttlebutt
Want me to FReepmail you some Willie links for you to 'put to picture'?) Yes I could use them. I just got in from running errands, did Scuttlebutt post any Willie Nelson yet? And thanks for the Two Thumbs Up, I'm giving you one too for this thread. ^ ^

We are so lucky to have these two fine men in charge....
President George W. Bush announces his Mideast policy while flanked by Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld, in the Rose Garden at the White House June 24, 2002. Warning the Congress against delay 'in a time of war,' Bush also called on lawmakers to do their jobs and send him a defense bill as soon as possible. (William Philpott/Reuters)

I'll await your daily call with great anticipation !!
The complaint was on another thread, it was about the 2nd Amendment, here is my pro-gun statement:
Stop the attacks on our God given Rights by the extreme wacko left-wing anti-gun-nazis' !!
The Right Of The People To Keep And Bear Arms Shall Not Be Infringed !!
An Armed Citizen, Is A Safe Citizen !!
Guns Save Lives !!
No Guns, No Rights !!
Freedom Is Worth Fighting For !!
Molon Labe !!
