[Jim Robinson]

Are you ready for a FReepathon?

This is going to be a great quarter for us! First a nationwide Independence Day Tea Party, then we'll be caravanning across country on the Tea Party Express culminating at the 9-12 March on Washington and National Tea Party in DC, then the First Annual Free Republic National Convention!

It's time we stand up and loudly say NO to the Marxist B. Hussein Obama before he completely destroys our country and replaces freedom with socialism! The guy thinks he's a dictator and he's running amok without even seeking the approval of the congress or the consent of the people! It's like the Chicago Mob taking over the country! It's time for the people to yank his chain up taught!

DONT TREAD ON ME!

Woo hoo!!

Thank you all for making Free Republic the number one conservative site on the Internet and thank you for your continuing support!

May God bless and save our nation,

Jim

[E.G.C.]

Welcome everyone to the 3rd quarter 08' Freepathon.

By now, I'm sure everyone realizes what is at stake and how important FR is in terms of keeping everyone informed about the things impacting them in their everyday lives. Annmarie if you want to know about what is going on in the world around us, you have to go to the Internet as just about every MSM news organization is in the pockets of the Obama administration and the Democrats.

There are elements of the left that perceive Christians and conservatives as security threats to the communities in which the latter live. You probably haven't heard of what was referred to by someone named Gary Aldrich as "self serving paranoia". Anyone who writes or says anything negative about Obama or Democrats or their social and/or political agenda is a threat to National security. This is what is referred to as "self serving paranoia". This is what we as Christians and conservatives are facing.

So, you see now what is at stake here. Folks, any amount you send no matter how large or small will help keep FR running. The important thing is give what you can and FR will continue to be here for you and me and everyone around the world 24/7. Now, more than ever. It's FR for all the info about what matters to America.

Regards......

Jim:

Doubling the usual to $40 cash this time around. We need FR in this time of turmoil and darkness. Need to keep the lights on, and if cap and tax passes, your hamsters are gonna have to run twice as fast!
