Thanks for the ping! What a great story!

Merry Christmas to all Freepers and Lurkers.

Even, if all of you contribute to Free Republic on a regular basis, you might want to consider an extra drop in the Free Republic Kettle! We need to keep that kettle cooking for our daily minimal political truthful knowledge nourishment.

If we depended on the left wing mediots for honest and truthful knowledge nourishment, we would starve.

Recently, the killer of that young police officer in Red Bluff, California was arrested and is in jail thanks to a freeper, Neil E. Wright. Things like the quick arrest of this scumbag might only happen when we have Free Republic to share the news and to make news.

Merry Christmas to you and your family, Dave!

When members of my family ask what I'd like for Christmas, I'm asking them to make a donation to Free Republic. I don't need any more stuff, but I do need to get my news from Free Republic.

Well said! Consider it done!
