5% Carry 60% of Fed Income Tax; 5% Carry 100% of Free Republic Expense
Vanity ^ | 26 May 14 | Xzins

Posted on 05/26/2014 5:44:46 PM PDT by xzins

Free Republic gets about 40,000 unique hits a day. Going to the state donor numbers, we get about 2300 donors. That is about a 5.5% rate of readers to donors.

My testimony is that Free Republic is the best website on the internet. Notice that I didn't say, "the best conservative, small government, pro-God, pro-Life, pro-Gun, etc." website. That is true, but Free Republic is more.

I just had a near real time discussion with a FRiend on freepmail.

I've had zero pop-ups, ads, thefts, etc. since 1998. It was all discussion all the time. Where else do you get that? I’ve used my credit card in our secure system also since 1998 and I’ve never had a problem. Target, Michaels, and Neiman Marcus should be so good.

This is the best discussion software ever created. Bar none. I can track every comment I've made, every response to it, and I can reply and reply again and again and again. All of that without the dreaded outline gradually indenting until all that remains is the right side of the screen page.

There are links back to previous comments, there are links that bring up all responses to a comment.

It amazes me how much like a conversation Free Republic is.

AND, we have a moderator staff dedicated both to free expression AND to maintaining the conservative identity of Free Republic and to banging heads when necessary. They get their marching orders from our main man, Big Jim Thompson, who, with his brother Matt Dillon, keeps the riffraff liberal troll deadbeats away from our town.

So, if you're part of the 94%, then Mitt Romney was talking about you. It got him in trouble.

It'll probably get me in trouble.

Brother, can you spare even a dime?

Zero was defeated by 3 to 1 margins (75-25) in many TN counties bordering the NC mountains...not bad when you consider how lame the GOP candidates were...

To: who knows what evil?

I see that when I look up the cities on city data. You can’t find better percentages than that!

A neighbor by a house we put an offer in at had two signs by his road: one had the ten commandments, the other read ‘I wouldn’t even name my dog Obama’.

I can’t wait to have people like that over for dinner.

It won't take long...just spent some time planting greasy beans, so I have plenty to share/barter at the farmer's market next year. Speaking of which, there's a HUGE market over the hill via I-26 to Asheville...loads of goodies.

FR should identify donors with an asterisk. It will increase donations. Other large political web sites do something like that.

WE 'Conservatives' renounce the clowns on the right.

WE 'Conservatives' have yet to see you, 'LIBERALS', renounce the clowns on the left.

We 'Conservatives' are not holding our breath.

THIS is what makes us different than you.

WE are beholden to principle, not party.









WOO-HOO & AMEN!
