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.

ONE OF FREE REPUBLIC'S FINEST
RINTENSE
(aka Republican Warrior Princess)
Rintense has been posting a Daily Thread - "A Day in the Life of President Bush" - since shortly after the Inauguration last year. This thread enjoyed almost instantaneous success and has affectionately been dubbed "The Dose".
The Dose begins with a summary of the President's Day, followed by a quote of the day and then photos taken of the President that day. Rintense downloads these photos (mostly from Yahoo and the WH Website) and posts them for all of us to see. She also provides comments along the way and replies to posters. The thread is informative, educational, humorous and poignant. It is posted in the early evening and many of us cannot retire for the night till we have had our Daily Dose of W.
If you have not already done so, do check out the Dose link here. If you like what you see, send Rintense a freep mail and she will put you on her ping list.
Take a bow, Rintense. You have created and maintained a valuable and popular thread and you are ONE OF FREE REPUBLIC'S FINEST.

I'm glad you saved it, too. I have a special, secret vignette maker but if I gave his name, he'd be more in demand than he is already just finding logos for his lady admirers. LOL

Rintense, it's exciting to see you honored like this. You deserve it. I'm glad I'm finally getting to know you.
God bless.

I LOVE the way they look at each other anyway - it is so sweet. :)Oh, Billie, did you see his speech in Iowa a few weeks ago when he started talking about Laura, and called her the 'great love of my life' and he almost cried!
Talk about sweet!! I could hardly stand it!

I didn't. : ( But as has been said, the way they look at each other is just too hard to fake. When the clintons tried it, it was so phoney it was sickening.

Billie, I remember that great spoof! Fabulous!!
Jimmy Cahtah couldn't come close to W in a toolbelt competition.........or any other, for that matter!
To: Billie
When the Xlintons tried it, I reached for the Mylanta!
Ewwwwwwwwww!!
To: Billie
Do you know how to post
music that plays on the REAL players?
Victoria Delsoul was putting up some
great sounds over in the Canteen the other
night, and I like the way that you can
listen and read at the same time.
Plus you get to hear the lyrics.

Ok **snapping photo album open again**, doesn't our president have a cute smile in this picture?
To: ST.LOUIE1; JustAmy
Oh by the way, thanks Louie for the new signature! It's just PERFECT!!!!! I just love it! (Thanks to you too, JustAmy!)
To: mtngrl@vrwc
I love that one!
You can keep looking as much as you want, mountaingirl! I like this trip down memory lane! Keep that photo album open!
To: mtngrl@vrwc
Thanks for the pics.
Do you have the one with W
and the BlackLab at the WTC?
I don't trust people who don't
love animals - and the Bushes clearly love'em.
