What would you do Without FR?????
How would You Feel without FR??? Suppose one day you tried to log on and Free Republic wasn’t 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 isn’t 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 can’t do this alone.The liberals are sure we won’t 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.
What is Free Republic?
An excerpt from Grampa Dave's Free Republic Lifeform post:
"... This is a wonderful description of what Free Republic really is. It is a living and evolving Life Form to battle the left wingers and those who would destroy this country!
The Free Republic Life Form enables us to discover the truth about what is happening. We can avoid the spin of the major mediots as they work 24/7 to weaken this country. We come to the Free Republic Life Form to find the truth!...
Free Republic needs a constant infusion of cash to keep the Free Republic Life Form alive, viable and to grow. If we believe in Free Republic, we must donate each month or quarterly to keep this incredible life form alive... Good stewardship is what this world needs, not good intentions. Good conservative stewards will insure that the Free Republic Life Form continues to grow, be viable and thrives!"
5,000 Freepers who care are needed now!
Thinking about donating to Free Republic for the first time?
Please consider the following words as you make your decision:

"A lot of people come to FreeRepublic on a daily basis for their news. Strangely, many of them never stop to think about how this site is paid for. Many have no idea that FreeRepublic is fully funded by the people who use the site.
If everyone who was registered donated $1 a month, we'd never have to have a fund raiser. Unfortunately, that doesn't happen. Some people think their $5 or $10 wouldn't make a difference, but it would."

"...These are not the people we are appealing to, it's those that don't think twice about logging in here. If we could get everyone of them to kick in $12 once a year - we'd be done with the FReepathons."

"While large donations are great, often it is the small ones that are sacrificial and inspiring.
Every penny that is donated is greatly appreciated and helps to pay the bills.
Those who are not in a position right now to donate can still make an important contribution by bumping this thread or pinging others to it."

"...You state perfectly what the FReepathons are all about. If more of us gave a small amount on a regular monthly basis, we would never have to hold them.
I believe that 99% of the registered FReepers would never miss a monthly donation of $5.00 a month. At the same time, all of us honor our FReeper friends who might be in difficult financial straits and are happy to carry the burden for them."

"We have to stay vigilant, we have to fight, we can not let the RATS destroy our Republic!
We have made a difference. Free Republic is that tool for us to gather, meet like minded individuals and fight for all we believe. Keep this web site running. The liberals hate us, so we must be on the right track!"

"We must keep Free Republic strong, growing and ready for all the future tricks by the dark sides! There is only one way to do that.
We must share some of our treasure that the Lord has loaned to us with Free Republic. It is that simple!"

" would i rather do without one large pizza a month?
...or do without Free Republic for a month.
...easy enough decision, it's easy to contribute...
and it's so much less fattening than that pizza."

"Freepers-----Lurkers----- Supporters I have a message for you. Every time we have a Freepathon I get hundreds of donations for very small amounts...
You are the backbone of the Free Republic. Freeper is a very proud name. Stand tall, put your chest out, and know that your country knows you care. You are one of a very elite, very small percentage (2%) who care enough to help. God Bless you. Our country needs you, and the Free Republic knows you are the heart and soul of America."
Please visit the Freepathon thread: A Tribute to Freepers - Summer Freepathon!
Your support of Free Republic will be greatly appreciated! And you'll be helping the "Free Republic Lifeform" continue its growth. Make a difference. Please contribute today.
Thank You!!
Exactly. I am a monthly donator/subscriber/whatever...
And, on the question "to FREEP or not to FREEP?" Not FREEP? Is that possible? I think that I could get off of crack cocaine easier than I could stop FREEPing.
DISCLAIMER: No, I am not actually on crack cocaine.
FReegards,

However, when something important happens, and we can't get to Free Republic for the real story. That proves the real need for Free Republic.
That happened to us/me on 9/11. We were on the Oregon Coast on vacation. On the way home with minimal radio and only CNN on TV that night in the motel, we knew very little of what had happend. Even my wife missed Free Republic and she never comes here. She knew that when I got on Free Republic, I would start getting the real news to share with her.
We arrived home late on 9/12. She told me to only unpack what was necessary for the night's need. Then, she asked me to get on Free Republic. She called our relatives and friends to talk and cry with them. Then, she went to the local grocery store for food and dinner for the night and the morning.
When she had set the dinner on the table, she asked me to please turn off Free Republic to come to dinner and share what I had learned on Free Republic. It was a rather tearful dinner as the real reality of what had happened had been revealed in my visit to Free Republic.
Is there a price on that? Yes, whatever, we donate to Free Republic to be a member to share and learn with other Freepers.
Free Republic is worth far more than whatever we donate to it. Our price is what we decide re sharing our treasure to keep Free Republic alive and there when we need it.
