Everyone please send whatever you are able to, whether it is $10, $100 or $1,000+. The [font color="red"]DUmmies,[/font] Morons, Kos Kiddies and that crew [font color="red"]are laughing up their sleeves.[/font] Jim may have to make this site members only or allow ads. Better for us to just help with what we can. Maybe you can donate as a memorial for a lost loved one, a servicemember who never made it home or was disabled defending our country. Perhaps you'd like to give to keep free discussion alive and to show them that we're not knuckling under. I'm sure a well thought out or prayerful meditation will lead you to see the need and how you can help. If every registered FReeper and our lurkers would each just help out with a fin or a sawbuck, or better yet a Ben Franklin, we could put this to bed and get on with the conservative cause.

(1,326 posts)Methinks JimBob holds off on announcing totals for desperation purposes. Almost every freepathon starts out slow, to the point of worrying members and making them post comments such as the above, then at the final moment some miraculous large donation from a deep red state pushes them to 100% and they reach the goal. I don't buy it.
Now, what he does with that money- considering their website is basically a 1998 html bulletin board- that may be another story...
liberalhistorian
(20,822 posts)out why the freepers haven't latched on to that, yet; what, exactly, does he DO with all that dough since it obviously ain't going into the website. You'd think they'd have at least begun to catch on by now. Then again, these are freeps we're talking about. Too busy casting their asparagus to pay attention to anything hugh or series.

(2,286 posts)Maybe you can donate as a memorial for a lost loved one, a servicemember who never made it home or was disabled defending our country -- Guilt and patriotism. Check.
Perhaps you'd like to give to keep free discussion alive and to show them that we're not knuckling under. Pride and ego. Check.
I'm sure a well thought out or prayerful meditation will lead you to see the need and how you can help. Religious appeal. Check.
Not sure why he uses euphemisms for dollar amounts or perhaps he just wanted the opportunity to invoke Ben Franklin.
I think all he's missing is mom and apple pie.
newspeak
(4,847 posts)hey, before 9/11 only congresscritters who served in the military could wear those flag pins. And, here's a clue, freepers, most were democratic congresscritters, not chickenhawks who love to make money off of war, but have other things to do than serve.

Amerigo Vespucci
(30,885 posts)If it IS RimJob, it's beyond creepy, because in that thread there are comments like "Why don't you do (this / that / etc)" and "2ndDivisionVet" replies "because it's not my Website."

Lol, that is their idea of 'free speech'.
No wonder most of them have fled.

(30,885 posts)Some of them refer to it in not-so-secret CODE, as "W 'n' S." They tell their friends "I think I'll head over to RimJobCentral.com for a little W 'n' S now."
