"If you are a Starbuck’s addict, stop going once a week and use the saved money for a Free Republic donation. Better yet buy your coffee at a Super Market on sale and don’t go liberal Starbucks and support their gay liberal agendas."
The poster I referenced didn't even cite money problems. She decided to withhold donations because she got her feelings hurt during the primary season. (eyeroll) Didn't we all catch it from someone or other over our choices back then? We probably gave something back, too. But you put on your big girl panties and you get over it.
FR is my primary news source. I don't mind contributing so that it will BE here.
I have been a $/Day donor to Free Republic for over a decade.
There is no free lunch.
People, who use Free Republic without donating to it are Freeploaders. They are like the people, who want to go lunch or dinner with a group and never pay their share, if anything.
