Are you ready for some FReeping?Howdy everyone,
The Free Republic Fourth Quarter FReepathon is underway!!
Time to raise the funds necessary to keep Free Republic on the air for the next several months. We've had lots of excitement and heated discussion on these boards in the last months and weeks with the California Recall and special elections. Looks like Grayout Davis is going down for the count and his big tax, big spending partner is gonna be tossed out of the ring with him! This is a very strong message being sent by the voters to the big government politicians in California and nationwide: Enough is enough!
The Davis/Bustamante tag team has busted California and California is busting them! Thank you fellow California FReepers for gathering signatures, protesting, rallying and campaigning all up and down the state to help make this happen! One week from now and we usher in a new governor!!
But this was just the warm up fight. The bell sounds the main event immediately following: George W. Bush vs some yet to be named corrupt liberal Democrat for President of the United States!! Go Dubya!! Go FReepers!!
And, of course, FReepers will be campaigning all across the fruited plains and from sea to shining sea for their favorite conservatives for Congress and Senate and local and state offices. This is our opportunity to sweep out the remnants of the corrupt Clinton era Democrat officeholders and to begin replacing the liberal activist judiciary with judges that will abide by the Constitution rather than making law from the bench! Imagine that! Go Conservatives!!
Stay tuned to Free Republic! You will not want to miss any of the action this quarter or next year!!
And I'm sure you've all read that Free Republic has been slandered by the City of Fresno Human Relations Commission as being a "hate group" holding "hate rallies" and "hate picnics." Well, we are not going to allow this false and libelous accusation stand unanswered! We've filed the required paperwork notifying the City of Fresno that they are about to be sued. They have 90 days to respond or offer to resolve this issue through settlement. If not, then we file suit. We don't expect any major legal expenses for the case this quarter, but there may be some. Consequently, I'm increasing our target this quarter so that hopefully we will have some funds available to cover any expenses related to this effort as they are incurred. We have a favorable financial arrangement with our attorney, but there may be some expenses that have to be covered this quarter.
Thank you all for your continued support and may we all enjoy much success in the coming months!
God bless you all!
Regards,
Jim Robinson

Why do you lie to freepers? Admit you make a living off
them. I guess God knew to stick shit in a chair, you reap what you sow.
Hope you hate life in that chair, you deserve it.
If there is anyone here who doesn't understand that the bulk of the "Administrative" line item on our budget report (see our secure server donation page) goes to me, well I guess I didn't make it clear enough. So, "I'm coming clean" (as this AFer/LPer calls it). Free Republic consumes all of my time for approximately 12 to 16 hours per day, 7 days per week, 365 days per year. Even take a laptop when I travel so I can log in on the road. I do not take a salary as I am not an emloyee of the company (there are no employees of Free Republic, LLC), but I am the majority owner and I do take a draw from time to time when I need it and if there are funds available. It is budgeted in with all the rests of the costs necessary to keep FR on the air. Thank you all very much!! Jim
I do the vanilla also .. Yankee Candles are great
Oh and for the pup .. if you pour a little vinager in the area where he/she messed .. it will help neutralize the order and help stop the pup from going in the same spot
No you didn't ... Do tell
You know Jim, for the life of me, I will never understand how someone could have so much hate to even spew crap like this. If they want to post at LP .. FINE
But this low class juvenile mean spirited attacks on you are not needed .. nor are the necessary and they need to to grow the (*%*(#&*$&*%$# up
Does the despicable person who wrote you that vicious message think that you and your family don't have to eat and have a roof over your heads? Sheesh! [Obviously that's a rhetorical question.]
God bless you, sir! And thank you for all that you have done!
Though there are times when I'm sure you feel that you have created a monster, there are thousands and thousands of us who believe that you have provided us a haven from the insanity out there in the world! Our meager donations are but a mere pittance in relationship to our gratitude for you and what you have accomplished in creating FreeRepublic.com.
I for one, know he doesn't. don't ask me how I know it - I just do - it's one of those things.
I agree .. You have been a blessing to so many Freepers, including myself. God has big plans for you my firend
Before I found Free Republic, I was stuck listening to the media, I really had little hope for our country.
FR changed that for me .. Because of all your hard work and dedication in keeping this site up .. I have found there are so many folks out there with the same beliefs as me .. we may not always agree, but we all pretty much have the same goal and it renewed my hope for our country.
So for those Anti-FR's .. GET A LIFE
LOL ... But But ..
