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.

Everyone seems to get a kick out of my VI's .. I'm told years from now .. I'll be able to laugh about it also ..
Somehow I doubt it .. I'm hoping to have a mental block about the whole thing .. LOL

Actually, I've listened carefully to the tape when that scene occurred, and W patted Laura on the backside, and she said "Be a good boy" to him!
Their relationship is absolutely fantastic!

Sorry, Miss Scarlett... I looked and looked but couldn't find "Walk Throught This World With Me."
To: ru4liberty; Aquamarine
Thanks for looking for Walk Through the World With Me....I have another request...maybe tomorrow, or some day soon, you could find a Patsy Cline song. She is the only C&W singer who can follow George Jones, IMO. Any song at all by Patsy.....thanx
To: daisyscarlett
What a beautiful tribute....
Here's a link to some great military graphics..thought you might like them.
