Is Free Republic a Fraud? Is it time for Free Republic to go away?

Mojo too?

[dandelion]

NO! Disruptors be damned - this is a place of free speech; the left/losers always wanted you shut down, and the posers will do it any way they can. These people who accuse you have never proven anything to me except that they are liars and frauds themselves... you have proven up everything you've ever done. I trust very few, but I trust you. To hell with them, I'm sticking by you and FreeRepublic!

[Petronski]

...we've got several ex-FReepers ... who are claiming ... that I am ripping off the donors and that Free Republic is a fraud.

Let them prove it or go pound sand. Diehard! Rage! Rage against the dying of the light!

[OrthodoxPresbyterian]

I give monthly.

I will increase my monthly giving as of today.

I hope that all regular FReepers who enjoy this site will treat it as a subscription service, and give monthly to support it.

Best,
The Orthodox Presbyterian (formerly Uriel1975)

I qualify as an oldtimer.

Many times I have said on here: As goes the FreeRepublic, so goes The Republic.

Check's in the mail.

In the nearly 4 years I've been here as a lurker and registered poster, FR has kept me informed, inspired me to become politically active and provided a wealth of like-minded friends. The anti-freeps are bitter, whining children in a state of arrested development whose lives are so miserable that their idea of a fun web site is one where they can all sit around calling freepers names. (Yes, reminds me of 5th grade, too).

I would encourage all registered Freepers to donate a respectable amount to keep this place in operation, and would ask all the whiners and complainers to put up or shut up.

We won't let you go away Jim.

You've got the best site on the web. But, please, don't let that mojo character back on the boards.

Those who want to keep it going speak up

I can't tolerate the folks who use the site to denigrate the site.

I contribute, I use the services, and I am content.

The malcontent should get a life.

[zeaal]

Is there anyway to develop a monthly pledge system whereby we all make monthly commitments to xxx dollars and send that in or have it placed on automatic withdraw?

Thank you Jim!

[CheneyChick]

I'd like to keep it going, JimRob. It seems as though some housecleaning is in order and that the original intents and purposes of this forum be respected and adhered to.

Cheers, CC :)

You have permission to up my monthly credit card donation to $15.00 per month. Do you need me to input the information again, or can you take care of it?

[BADJOE]

Don't worry Jim

Freepathon starts Saturday.

$80,000 or bust. : )

[Republic]

I hope you at least offered them some cheese, so many whines, so little time.

[Hazzardgate]

KEEP HOPE ALIVE!

[Don Joe]

No, definitely not time to toss in the towel.

[freeman_of_mx]

Free Republic IS the "vast right wing conspiracy"...

And DANG proud of it too !!!

[denydenydeny]

Can I pay you to ban Arator again?

[BOBWADE]

I want to thank you for all that you do. I have lurked here for years and only recently started joining in. Its people like you that make a difference. I assure you that I will make another contribution to keep this class act growing. Thanks JimRob!

[Jen]

Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeease, Jim, keep Free Republic running. I just recently found it!
