Free Republic

I along with many other here march with the Tea Party in DC on 9/12/2009 and we remember the huge turnout. We left the place cleaner than when we got there. It's quite a different story with the recent Woman March On DC.

I just want to tell Jim Rob and my wonderful Freeper family that I am very, very thankful for you all. Your intelligence, cleverness and incredible sense of humor helped me stay informed and smiling during this last very stressful presidential election. I love you all, have a blessed and enjoyable Thanksgiving! XOXO

https://www.c-span.org/video/?162547-1/post-inaugural-victory-brunch An hour and 12 minutes of fun on 2-11-01 in Clovis, CA with JimRob and a C-SPAN broadcast. If you are interested, I had the honor of presenting mocking awards just before the one hour and one minute mark. Yes, I actually did call Hillary "Daughter of Satan" on C-SPAN. Fast forward to today and I suspect that those who thought such was over the top can now agree.

President Trump stated on the campaign trail that he is not going to hire those with the perfumed 'elite' resumes. He is going to hire those that are in tune with the American people, from the people, and one of the people. I think there are plenty of Freepers to recommend. LIST THEM HERE!

FReepers are a special kind of people. The first FReeper, was a man named Jim Robinson.  Seeing things take place in our nation that he knew were wrong, he decided to develop an internet site where patriots could gather and network to effect change.  In a short period of time there were literally thousands of people who had joined him.  Many were joining him in Washington, D. C. to let our leaders know, we weren't happy.  Today those people are known as FReepers and they do something no other site requests of it's members.  They voluntarily pay to support the...

A Call to Action ! Fellow Freepers, Fellow Citizens. Please allow me to ask a favor of all of you on behalf or our country. It has been but little more than a few hours since Donald J. Trump gave his speech accepting the Republican nomination for the Presidency of the United States. No doubt many of you were as moved as I was by a man who genuinely loves America and is not afraid to stand up in front of the world and proclaim that love. If this was a rational and sane time in our nation's history that...

I see some NeverTrump Freepers are back, posting articles almost like clockwork. Is this some paid trolling going on? Is it some psych-op for the GOPe Uniparty? Using FR as a place to foment conflict/hone the Establishment's arguments against Trump and real conservatives and/or Christians? No one has the time to be posting as many articles in a day these people are posting without getting paid. Sorry. I think it's an "op" against FR.

Regrouping JANUARY 22, 2016 ~ CONSISTENTCONSERVATIVES This is an emergency means for us to keep in touch with our FRiends, who are real Conservatives, in case of purging. Or, if there is no purging, do we really want to continue our discussions in the forum where the owner despises us for not supporting his non-Conservative candidate? My purpose is to figure out what to do to continue our discussions to advance Conservatism.

This post is a long time in the making, and spurred on by the significance of today's date (July 4th!) and a recent post made by ETL about the Revolutionary War series (http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/3307499/posts). (I'm a first-time poster of a thread, so hopefully got this down right!) While I’m busy watching the very first episode of this excellent historic series, on this night of July 4th, 2015, as fireworks go off in the distance, and seeing graphical representations of events leading up to our own Revolutionary War (such as the turning of Franklin’s political sensibilities toward the American cause while in...

I would love to patronize Freeper-owned or conservative-owned businesses online and brick-and-mortar stores. Are there any Freepers who own one or could point me in the right direction? I wish we had a "Classified Ad" thing here on FR.

To the memory of Free Republic’s “Kenny Bunk.” Continue to love each other like brothers, and remember always to welcome strangers, for by doing this, some people have entertained angels without knowing it. Hebrews 13, 1-2 Our FRiend Kenny Bunk passed away this weekend. He had many compatriots and admirers here, and so I thought I would tell you a little more about him, in order that you might in a small way celebrate his life as I do. Kenny knew the classics (or the western canon, generally) inside and out, and was a focused, passionate student of ancient and...

I have been here going on 15 years. I have seen many freepers come and go, including myself a time or two. I have always retained my handle yet I see names dated from way back when I do not remember ever seeing back then. Is it possible to change your handle and yet keep your sign up date?

Hey everyone, The Ninth annual Texas Cowboy Memorial Shoot concluded last weekend, and so much fun was had by all who attended, that a few of us have decided to keep the momentum of fellowship and fun going here in North Texas. For those who missed it, the annual Shoot was held at a private shooting range just south of Dallas this year. The live thread (with a bazillion photos) can be found here: 9th Annual TexasCowboy Memorial Shoot (Live Thread) We're calling our little follow-up gathering, the FR North Texas Turkey Shoot. No, we won't be hunting any turkeys,...

The Ravenous Wolves of FreeRepublicHow do we deal with the insults and pain of those whom Christ called "ravenous wolves"? Many aren't aware of it but the phrase "A wolf in sheep’s clothing" has biblical origins. Mat 7:15 "Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves. The word translated "false prophet" here is not referring to a Godly person who has a prophecy that fails. Instead it's referring to a person who pretends to be a Christian but in reality is not. They are compared to "ravenous wolves" among the flock....

Yesterday I posted this hilarious review of Sarah Palin's new book about the war on Christmas Good Tidings and Great Joy. The post was picked up by a Tea Party forum "Free Republic" and they were not happy. Apparently I'm "stupid, ignorant, dishonest and basically evil" and also have "the hair of a kewpie doll." For 70+ comments, they proved they were smarter, more honest, more Godly, and possessing of better hair by calling me gay in as many ways as they could think of. "Fudgepacker" was fun because it reminded me of second grade, "pointy headed fag in need...

The FR main page/display bug seems to have returned... ... No sidebar... Minimum first pages displayed Time to GIT-R-DONE.... (again)

FReeper jehardy has passed away. Just a note to let you know that we've lost another member. Judy was a friend of mine for the past 12 years and a former co-worker. She did not post a great deal, but always appreciated being part of this community, to which I introduced her back around 2006. Judy was a warm and funny person, with a ready smile and a great laugh. Like her husband Herb, she was a true patriot and defender of the Constitution, notably the 2nd Amendment, which led us to share and compare our firearms purchases and also...

OK, I admit it. I love snark. I love a well-crafted one, and I love to try my hand at it. Perhaps too often, I will concede. You definitely don't want to be considered "too snarky". But I can't help it. It's just too much fun. When I see a headline that is just screaming out for snark, I jump on the thread, and all too often see that another Freeper has beaten me to my snark. Did you know that the plural of snark is snark. As in "I posted 5 snark today". Honestly. While I play at snark,...

I heard Rush mention Free Republic Freepers on his show today. I am not a Rush Subscriber so I cannot post link.
