I have just fully gotten my account started on this site. I have read Free Republic for a few years now. But I believe it is important to get the message of what the Republic is out to all. I am retired from the US NAVY, Dad to four, grand-dad to eight, Married to Sharon since 1983. I have survived cancer. I lost my left kidney to it this past September. Conservative almost to a fault as I was brought up as a liberal democrat. Mom was a teacher and Dad was a telephone lineman(IBEW). Voted for a Democrat for president once, George McGovern in 72. I was 18 and din't know any better. By the time Jimmy Carter ran, I had been aboard USS Independence for almost three years and things had changed. Looking forward to the fun this could be.

Well I would warn you about the thorns among the roses here but I see you have been registered for four years so I guess you know. At least the cursor over your Freeper handle indicates that.

Welcome. Keep your powder dry. Take no prisoners when you are right. Look forward to seeing you around.

This is the only place on the web to find what is really going on in the world.
