We don't sell products or services on FR. We don't sell advertising. We don't charge membership dues. We are not a 501c non profit and therefore are not subject to government regulation. We pay all applicable taxes on our income and are free to speak our mind. Our operating costs are funded solely by donations from our readers and participants and that's the way we'd like to keep it if we possibly can. We are beholden to no one but our like-minded, pro-life, small government, strong defense, conservative grassroots membership!!
The funds raised in these FReepathons go to pay our current quarter expenses. But we're also going to try to replace some of our older servers and failing equipment this year so we're going to add a little extra to our FReepathon goals. John is estimating ten to fifteen thousand to do this and I'd like to get it all in place and working before the election cycle is fully heated up, so we'll try to bring in a little extra now, if we can, and the rest next quarter.
No matter who gets the nomination or eventually wins the election, we're going to need FR more than ever to hold their feet to the fire!!
We need FR and FR needs you!!
Resistance to tyranny is obedience to God!!
We are the resistance!!

"We don't sell products or services on FR. We don't sell advertising. We don't charge membership dues. "JimRob, I really wish you would.
You should be a millionaire for creating this wonderful site.
We like capitalisms around here, don't we? Go for it! (you DO NOT HAVE TO "sell-out" to take people's money)
I donate as much as I can whenever I can- and to put my money where my mouth is I will match any contributions from people who agree with me on this today up to $500 (ok even if you disagree) - this site is too important to go begging. Especially this election cycle.
I also think you should OFFER (optionally) to let people who contribute have a 'contributing member' stamp next to their name whenever they post, denoting their contribution level- I would love to be a 'gold' member- it adds credibility to your posts too, to know you speak with your wallet.
Maybe a $5 a month contributor can have a 'monthly' sticker next to his name... just some new ideas

Monthly Donor Bump!
What Would You Do Without Free Republic?
"What would you do Without FR?????
Suppose one day you tried to log on and Free Republic wasnt there? Where would you get your up to the minute news? How about the live threads as things are happening?
How would you know about the latest Demorat scams, anti-second amendment schemes and all the other liberal, anti-American ploys that are tried every single day?
Insight into world affairs, brilliant wit, sharp retorts, instant information gratification are a few of the things that make FR so vital.
How would you keep on top of things without FR?
How would you know who to contact to complain about the lying politicians, Media Bias, Hollyweirds latest mouth off, sponsors of these idiots, company policies that are unfair and all the other things we need to know to counteract the liberal mindset and the evil plans of liberals?
How would you be part of a Freep?
What would you do without FR????
Freedom isnt free.
If you enjoy the site and find it a place of like minded Americans to sound off, to get together, to fight back, to have your voice heard and make a difference, PLEASE CONTRIBUTE NOW! Jim cant do this alone.
The liberals are sure we wont be able to keep FR up & running. Prove them wrong. Show them we are indeed united Freepers. Whether it is $5.00, $50.00 or more, it all adds up. Please send a donation now to Free Republic."
Thank You for your support!

Oh, shoot. Looks like our donations API is down again. Have left a message for John. In the meantime, will have to suspend our FReepathon until it gets cleared up. None of our current donations are going through. Sorry about the delay.

And yes, it is you because I called my CC company, and it's not them.
To: The Cajun
You sound like a man who can speak intelligently about almost anything. 'Minds me of my old boss at Xerox. He was the same.
I'm glad you're my mean friend.

None of our current donations are going through. Sorry about the delay. Darn, and I was trying to donate 5,000,000 dollars, but when the card wouldn't work, I went to Tiffany's to see if it would work, and now I've maxed out my card..
Just damn..it's one of those days.
Joking aside, will wait for word our Father in Freepdom has gotten it fixed, and try again..
To: TheOldLady
You sound like a man who can speak intelligently about almost anything. Got you fooled big time, LOL.
My wife's brother is a PHD in mathematics, has written several books, when he gets going on fractal geometry, the old Cajun gets screwed right into the ground...... and quick too :^)

Frad the book CHAOS and you will understand fractal geometry & quantum physics.
It was written for people like us who feel intimidated by the subject.
I enjoyed the book tremendously
