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.

If you have not had the pleasure of meeting this amazing woman in person or on the
threads, please allow me to introduce her. This is FReeper and activist Saundra Duffy.
Saundra is the President of the Fresno/Central Valley Chapter of FreeRepublic, but,
as dedicated as she is to this website, you may not see her here often. Saundra is
a very busy woman. If she is not going to a FReep, she is probably coming from one.
Saundra and her bullhorn seem to be EVERYWHERE!

I wish I could tell you about every rally she has attended and every event that
she has organized, but the list would be endless. So I will just say; whether she is
confronting the "pro-terrorists" from FResno's FReeper Island, or "educating" the
misinformed liberal crowd in Sacramento, Saundra puts 100% of her heart and soul into
supporting her cause. This woman is unstoppable; she will go where angels fear to tread!

She and her husband, "lager" (a dedicated FReeper in his own right), make
quite a team as they carry the banner of freedom and liberty throughout the
California Central Valley. Those who know her will recognize her signature motto...

"For victory and freedom!"



Click below to see Saundra in action at the...
"Post-Inaugural Victory Brunch",
a Modesto "Condit FReep", and at a
FResno "Support our Troops" Rally.

And, to read more about her many activities,
rallies and demonstrations, visit Saundra’s
PROFILE PAGE.

Saundra, I have said before and will say again .... I don't EVER want to be on the
receiving end of your bullhorn! We should all thank our lucky stars that you are on
OUR side! I know of no one more passionate, or dedicated, or tenacious than you,
and no one more deserving of FR's Finest Spotlight.

God bless you, Saundra.
You are a patriot and one of FR's Finest!

FReep On, Sis!

[ST.LOUIE1]

Ham'n Eggs, cook-out style

Double order, please.

Hi, lody!

[JulieRNR21]

Hope it's not too late to have breakfast with you all....

[lodwick]

[lodwick]

;-) We're cooking today. Good morning everyone. bbl

[daisyscarlett]

Good Morning. You must be sleeping in on your day off....

[ST.LOUIE1]

Hope it's not too late to have breakfast with you all....

Wow! A 'General' having breakfast with the 'grunts'.

Well....one 'grunt'....me. : )

Hiya Julie!

[Mama_Bear]

Are your little bruised paws rested up from all the typing yesterday?

No! LOL!

:-( Well, wrap them around a nice cold glass of iced tea and take it easy today.

[ST.LOUIE1]

Morning, Ms. daisy.

Anything in your oven I should be knowing about?

I don't want to miss anything. : )

[CounterCounterCulture]

Ahem, that's Saundra "the Destroyer" Duffy, destroying leftist swill with a heavy dose of reality. :-)

[Billie]

Beautiful Tribute, Lori! Saundra, I don't know how you do it all! Congratulations to a very busy, deserving lady! It is a pleasure to meet you!

[JulieRNR21]

No the stern 'General' is away today....'Just Julie' is visiting for a bit.....

[ST.LOUIE1]

Are your little bruised paws rested up from all the typing yesterday?
No! LOL!

:-( Well, wrap them around a nice cold glass of iced tea and take it easy today.

I suggest YOU do the same. : )

Cute bear. Looks just like you. : )

[Militiaman7]

Good Afternoon Everyone.

Great thread today

[ST.LOUIE1]

No the stern 'General' is away today....

WaHoooo! Sorry, lost control there. : (

'Just Julie' is visiting for a bit.....

A real treat! Yessir, a really great pleasure receiving a kiss from *Julie*. : )

[Cyber Liberty]

Hey, twin Sister-in-law! How ya been?

[Billie]

That darn nosy wolf! He just had to snoop and snoop until he discovered our secret, who: you and I really are twins! :)

BTW, Cyber's bride and I also have a look-alike photo! Hi, Mr. and Mrs. Liberty!

[Mama_Bear]

BTW, I noticed a certain Mama Bear and Mtngrl in those photos along with JimRob. :^)

LOL! Yes, coudn't figure out how to get me out of them and leave them in, LOL.

Now, there are another two who gave up so many Saturdays to make the long drive to Modesto; mtngrl and Jim. We were only able to make it up there twice, but I wouldn't have missed it for anything.

Honestly, I believe that all of you were more than instrumental in Condit losing the election. You guys kept the Condit issue front and center in his district long after the press got tired and went away.

See you Saturday in Fresno. Yippee! Dave is coming to our tailgate party!

[Billie]

Hi, Meek - I'm so glad to see you here every day. Thank you so much for your contributions each day. We love ya!

[JulieRNR21]

A real treat! Yessir, a really great pleasure receiving a kiss from *Julie*. : )

Now dear Louie.....don't get too excited...that was a chocolate kiss....LOL
