HobbsOnline Fundraiser
Are you one of HobbsOnline's regular readers? Now is you chance to help further the mission of this web site - which is to act as a conservative watchdog on both Tennessee government and the press.

We need to raise $1,000 in the next six weeks (not $1,500, as previously mentioned). The money will be used to establish and maintain a permanent home on the Internet for this information service and purchase new computer hardware and publishing software necessary to improve this site in ways that will let us offer more information and resources and allow additional writers to post information and commentary here, and more rapidly distribute information.

The easiest way for you to help is to donate via the Amazon tip jar featured in the column that runs down the right side of the page. Amazon takes a percentage as their fee, so if you don't want to go that route, email me at bhhobbs-at-comcast.net for my mailing address.

Another way for you to help is to shop for vitamins and personal care items at this online store. Half of your purchase price will go to the financial needs of expanding this web site and ongoing operating costs. In addition, purchases at that online store are exempt from the onerous Tennessee sales tax, which on a $50 purchase will save you roughly the cost of your shipping.

I'll provide regular updates regarding funds raised and spent. You'll know when we have reached the goal, and down to the penny what every cent was spent for.

Phil Bredesen is going to raise and spend $10 million or so in order to bring his tax-raising big-spending governmental philosophy to the governor's mansion. Surely you can donate $10 to $25 to support this site and its ongoing efforts to push policy in the other direction.

The tip jar is over there ------>.

The online store is here.

Thanks in advance,
- Bill Hobbs
