It was great to see Chadsworth again.

Well, darn. Sorry I wasn't able to be there, Chads. We miss you at our corner. I'd have brought brownies had I known you were going to be there. :-(

We had a photographer from the Bee there Friday night. He took several pictures. Jim said he had talked to the reporter before and after the election. They wanted a current picture, so Jim told him they could find him at Shaw and Blackstone on Friday night.

Chadsworth came by. He asked about you and JK. He is planning to attend our December rally. Hope you will be able to make it.

As usual the Fresno Bee gets it wrong. They only wish that we were insignificant.

The Fresno Been and the rest of the MSM obviously don't understand the basic concepts of capitalism and supply side economics. The Fresno Bee could be one of the few thriving newspapers in this country, if only they veered to the right.

We will sure try to be there, barring fog, which is always a problem this time of year. It will be great to see you again, chads.

"It is not uncommmon at all to hear the sentiment there that the only good Muslim is a dead Muslim."

I've never heard anyone say that here.

There are crackpots in any large group. You can't control what everyone posts. I have seen posts and threads about Obama pulled that are blatantly racist.

Some posts are "fringe". Most are not. That's kinda what "fringe" means.

To hightlight the "fringe" and the stuff FR doesn't condone is unfair and biased.

It may be his creation but FR will live on. National Review outlived William Buckley. Whatever happens or doesn't happen to FR's founder, FR and conservatism has a bright future.

Great golly goodness, Jim! Good for you!

You've sure been a friend and a God-send to us "Freepers" for all these years. Thanks you for all you are doing for us.

You are ever in my prayers.
