Howdy everyone!! It's time for our 2nd quarter FReepathon!!

As you all know, we're planning on beefing up our system before the elections and we're anticipating it will cost approximately $12,000 to purchase the new equipment, memory and disk that John's recommending. We raised half of that amount in addition to our operating expenses last quarter and are hoping to raise the other half this quarter. Hope to have it all installed and working before the election cycle heats up.

No matter who wins the nomination or the election, we're going to need FR more than ever to hold their feet to the fire. We're hoping for the tea party rebellion of 2010 to continue in November. It's unlikely that we're going to have a conservative in the Presidency, but if we can continue taking state governments, build on our majority in the House and retake the Senate we may be able to make some headway. We must repeal ObamaCare and roll back the unconstitutional Marxist central government!! We must return the power to the states and the people!!

We are the resistance!!

Long live the tea party rebellion!!

Sam Houston


Sam Houston

On April 21, 1836 prior to leading his soldiers into the Battle of San Jacinto against Santa Anna, Sam Houston spoke to the troops:

"We view ourselves on the eve of battle. We are nerved for the contest, and must conquer or perish.

It is vain to look for present aid: none is at hand. We must now act or abandon all hope!

Rally to the standard, and be no longer the scoff of mercenary tongues!

Be men, be free men, that your children may bless their father's name."



Quotations from Sam Houston:

"Texas has yet to learn submission to any oppression, come from what source it may."

Sam Houston on The Civil War

"To secede from the Union and set up another government would cause war. If you go to war with the United States, you will never conquer her, as she has the money and the men. If she does not whip you by guns, powder, and steel, she will starve you to death. It will take the flower of the country-the young men."

"In the name of the constitution of Texas, which has been trampled upon, I refuse to take this oath. I love Texas too well to bring civil strife and bloodshed upon her."

"I declare that civil war is inevitable and is near at hand. When it comes the descendants of the heros of Lexington and Bunker Hill will be found equal in patriotism, courage and heroic endurance with the descendants of the heroes of Cowpens and Yorktown. For this reason I predict the civil war which is now at hand will be stubborn and of long duration."
Sam Houston

Texas will again lift it's head and stand among the nations. it ought to do so, for no country upon the globe can compare with it in natural advantages.

Texas has a very rich history
