Thread of Thanks: A debt of gratitude to Jim and John Robinson and FR.

Posted on 11/06/2002 4:33:08 AM PST by RedBloodedAmerican

We can't say "Thank You" enough for your hard work and efforts. We know the results of the elections last night was a personal goal for you as indicated by many of your posts, as well as one of the goals of FreeRepublic, and you worked hard towards that end.

Congratulations, and thank you. FR played an important role in getting out the truth and facts, tearing down the lies and spin, in spite of the odds from Dems, disruptors, AF'ers and those on other sites whose goal it was to derail you.

AMEN!

My heartfelt thank you for the best website on the internet! This is where I go for the latest breaking news, with no spinners telling me what it was I was supposed to have heard!
Last night was just phenomenal!

May God bless Jim and John Robinson in a marvelous way!

Hear! Hear!

Thanks to JimRob and FR.com, I have become an activist. Otherwise, I probably would have been CNNitized.

Where else to get all the election information -- all in one place -- and with others of like feeling, than right here? I love Free Republic. Thanks Jim and John!!

Thanks for everything. Thank you also for relaxing the ban on postings about or from DU. It's been nice to celebrate today and laugh at the rantings of those creatures over there.

I haven't laughed this hard in a very long time.

Have a great day, and once again, THANK YOU!

Jim & John & Co. also deserve credit for making FR robust enough to stand up to the enormous pounding it must have taken yesterday. "Takes a licking and keeps on ticking".

During past elections and major events, FR has at times ground to a halt under the load. But yesterday, access was sure and swift, at a time when Fox, CNN, and the rest were reduced to access times of over a minute per page.

Bravo.

"We may never know the full impact of FR, but I shudder to think of what would have happened had FR not existed."

I would "ditto" this, but we do know how rattled AlBore became when the Freepers chanted "Get out of Cheney's house". AlBore admitted that was one of the deciding factors to quit challenging the Florida votes.

True anarchists should NEVER find Common Cause with Lib'ral RATS, who support evermore Federal Guv'ment...

"Chi-Com Spies!!"
(To be sung to the Eagles' "Lyin' Eyes")

Lib'ral Pols just seem so gawl-durned squirrelly...
SlickWillie's Whore'd says, "Trust the Commies' Bile!!"
Effete ol' men, will go now to the Jury...
They'll fess up and disgrace Left's Elite Style.
Late last night, most DemonRATS felt lonely...
Reckon every Dolt knows Clinton isn't Right!!
And it breaks MUD's heart to think RATS' love is only...
Given to Dem folks who stand fer Rape and Vice!!
So RATS tell Slick they must Vote NOW fer their Country...
To support their Nation that the Left's torn down...
But Slick knows where RATS're goin' as they're leavin'...
Left is headed for the FReepin' side of town!!

{start_of_chorus}
You can't hide yer ChiComSpies!!
Yes...Left's Vile and lost, passion-wise!!
I thought by now RATS'd realize...
There ain't no way to hide Slick's Brazen Lies!!

On the other side of town, Mudboy is waitin'...
With fiery eyes and dreams no RAT shall steal!!
He types on through the night, anticipatin'...
'Cuz Slick makes MUD FReep away RATS' sleazy schpiel!!
Left rushes to Slick's arms, they'll fall together!!
MUD whispers that Bill's goin' to be tried!!
RATS swear that soon they'll be comin' back, emboldened...
MUD laughs away and sings "McAuliffe's FRIED!!"

RATS can't hide their ChiComSpies...
And Slick's guile is a thin disguise!!
I thought by now Left'd realize...
There ain't no way to hide Slick's Brazen Lies!!

RATS, wake up and pour yerself a strong one...
You know now that Left's Stars just keep on LYIN'!!
Come Join the Right...We're gonna FReep the Wrong Ones!!
Slick's bed is made...we'll hang him fer his crimes!!
Left wonders how it ever got this crazy...
RATS think about the dreams they dreamed in school.
Did Left get tired or were RATS always crazy?!
They're so far gone, Left seems just like they're fools!!
My, oh my, RATS sure seem now like deranged things...
Press set it up so well, so carefully...
Ain't it funny how Left's new life didn't change things
Left's still the SocialistShills they've always been!!

RATS can't hide their ChiComSpies...
And Slick's guile is a thin disguise!!
I thought by now Left'd realize...
There ain't no way to hide Slick's Brazen Lies!!

Yakboy said it best, in a recent reply to me, on election eve and I have it cut and pasted to my Desktop:

"Tuesday for the Democrats will be akin to the French preparing for battle at Agincourt. One of the French scouts peering through the myst reports back to the commander: "It looks like...it looks like they've got bows..."

George W. Bush is HENRY the Fifth reincarnate!

The FREEPERS are his Archers!

I want to add my thanks to the Robinsons who had the foresight to pioneer a place for conservatives to share ideas and gather strength. Rush was another such pioneer and now there are so many following in their footsteps. I really think that the internet and talk radio has changed the direction of this country by getting the truth out and reinforcing those who already knew the truth. All this has turned the tide against those who are corrupt, deceitful, or just plain wrong.
THANK YOU!!!!

And let's not forget to mention our amazed and sincere thanks that FR ran like a dream last night under what must have been an unprecedented load.
