I want to echo the thanks also. I didn't watch the MSM last night, I stayed right here.

Jim, you've helped save the First Amendment from itself. Patriotism knows no higher honor.

Are we permitted to post/link from democrat forums for the next day or so? I can just imagine the crying today.

[billphx]

Thanks, Jim...

This forum has kept my head from exploding :)

I'll second that (even though I had to stay off of FR yesterday for my blood pressure's sake).
Does anyone know what the "traffic report" for FR was yesterday?

[I'm ALL Right!]

My deepest thanks! I'm a loyal and addicted Freeper, and I would have been so lost last night without FR!!!!

Now that it doesn't matter, can we nail the coffin on Kerry's military record?

Thank you Swifties...this time you've won this war for America; you were even fighting the commies again. Justice at last for our Viet Nam Vets. ;o)

Great job keeping FR running thru the 2004 elections. I have no doubt ya'lls hard work helped win the election!!!!!!!

For that we are greatly indebted to our generous and capable FR leadership.

You are Great Americans!

Free Republic is numero uno, and to make it better, the rats are throwing themselves onto funeral pyres this morning.

Allow me to paraphrase:

"I love the smell of napalm in the morning. It smells like....toast."

Dittos!

Hope you don't mind me posting Kerry's concession poem here Tonk.. Free Republic rules!!!!



Loser Speaks Blues

The Botox didn't help enough.
George Bush was made of stronger stuff.
I never really took the lead.
George Bush is who the people need.
Windsurfing didn't help a bit.
George Bush has always been a hit.
I flipped and flopped to no avail.
George Bush should throw my butt in jail.
I leave you now to fade away.
George Bush has clearly won today.

First time tragedy, second time farce

It is 1 a.m. in Dallas, and I have been broadcasting since 5:00 p.m., so I will be brief.

Although the autopsy may take some time, the disaster that were the exit polls tonight will long be remembered as the equivalent of the early call of Florida for Gore in 2000. This was almost a disaster as panic spread throughout the close-watchers of the campaign – and there are millions of such close watchers. Drudge bit, and the entire country swallowed. There were skeptics, and I was among them, but even I had that feeling of doom sweep over me.

Information sensitive environments have to be on guard against manipulations like yesterday's. And when they happen, they must be closely examined.

So, who do Republicans have to thank?

Well, the U.S. military, for sweeping victories in Afghanistan and the conquest of Baghdad, and unflinching resolve to triumph in Iraq. Terrorists throughout that country are deeply dismayed at this hour.

And the superb professionals who designed the 96-hour effort in Colorado and Georgia in 2002 and who exported it throughout the country – they get a big round of applause.

The Swift Boat Vets get a salute for their courage and their persistence.

The blogosphere helped keep Dan Rather and his gang in check, as did citizen activists at places like FreeRepublic.com and FootballFansforTruth.com. The new media has forever changed the way media operates.

To the good people of Ohio, and every other state that resisted the blandishments of the Michael Moore-George Soros left: Thank you.

Sen. George Allen, who helped recruit a great class of Senate candidates and then push many of them to victory tonight deserves thanks. The same thanks go to Dennis Hastert, Tom Delay, Tom Reynolds and their team in extending the GOP majority by insisting upon fair reapportionment in Texas.

And finally, President and Mrs. Bush and Vice President and Mrs. Cheney conducted a disciplined and up-beat campaign in the face of unprecedented vilification. They didn't lose their humor or their energy, and they kept the team moving forward. Very few candidates have run such mistake-free campaigns, and their courage and quiet conviction brought them a deserved victory.

Now John Kerry has refused to graciously concede. I think this will not be a repeat of Florida 2000. First time tragedy. Second time farce. But it is still a fight, and it is going to be an ugly farce.
