BIG BUMP TO YOU

FR is the #1 News Forum on the internet. Thanks to FReepers and Jim Robinson.

Great post, and I do hope people stop at the source and donate also.

I found FR when Rush challenged us to find the Charelton Heston speech on the internet. It was here, of course. Haven't left since.

Absolutely the #1 news forum.

I used to waste two hours a day watching the TV news, trying to glean from it a few minutes of useful information, as 'thin' as it was. Since I found FreeRepublic, I haven't watched a Total of 2 hours of TV news, and am MUCH better informed about the issues that interest me.

FreeRepublic is WELL WORTH the monthly donation I provide. It saves me precious personal time AND sharpens my mind.

JimRob ... I love you, man!

FR is my sanctuary from my ultraliberal tree hugging commie college.

It's a good thing they don't read what I post about them here :D

I USED to put in a full day's work at the office.

I USED to get studying done in the evening.

This is really bad. As I was logging onto the net just now I was thinking that I had no longer surfed the net. I only went to FreeRepublic and read articles.

I log on tonight and the second post is this one.

I spend about two hours each day in the evening ar FreeRepublic. But now it is getting worse. I login in the morning before work (I make myself get up earlier.) Then a short time ago I started logging on at work. Breaks, lunch, and even during work time

Thank God that I'm the president of this company or I would be in serious trouble.

I wish I had never seen a computer that way I wouldn't be addicted to FreeRepublic.

Many times I have Logged Off FreeRepublic and said I would never again get involved in Posting or Replys but so far success has eluded me.

I will just have to go cold turkey, can't afford rehab.

I had an experience close to yours. During the election fiasco I was watching Fox News reporting the protests in Florida. The protesters were democrats with their "Count the Votes" signs. I was horrified at what I was seeing when through that crowd came a tall young man with a sign that said Newsmax.com. He looked horrified too, so I knew that what he was offering would be good. I went to my computer and typed in Newsmax and saw the truth being reported again. They had a link to Loudcitizen.com which had an article there that mentioned Freerepublic.com and I felt like I had found a home. A sane place where people loved the truth and their country.

Well one thing, I am going to cut off my subscription to cable TV, and upgrade my internet service. This is what FreeRupublic has done! Though sometimes the debates can get nasty(Libertarians vs Conservatives) I just have so much fun being part of the greatest group of Guys and Gals in the country! Thanx!! JimRob!!!

Before I found FR, I walked around talking to myself about the state the world is in. Most moms want to talk diapers or housecleaning(yuck, yuck, yuck). Since I've discovered FR(I think it was through worldnet.com??) I'm a fairly well-balanced person. (Balanced in my computer chair)When my two year old is occupied, I am here...but my poor husband......

It's really messed up my sleep schedual and has give me a one day jump on the newspapers. It has also given me lots of facts to win debates (arguments) with liberals, they have no answers for the truth so must resort to anger and screaming baldfaced lies.

I almost forgot about loud and newsmax. There were those signs and I did find them first but........when you find FR you just bookmark the others and homepage Freerepublic.com

Newsmax and Loud citizen don't get me wrong I love you guys too. But you know you are all lurking here all day!
