I bow to your knowledge about Custer and Little Big Horn, Sir! What a fateful day! Yet it did not stem the onrushing white tide nor give the Indian a victory the lasted beyond a few summers, eh?

The Battle of the Little Bighorn is a fascinating story. Learn about it... and you learn about the American west. As Crazy Horse so aptly put it... it was a good day to fight and a good day to die.

In a way, it's ironic that the battlefield now lies in the heart of the Crow Reservation. It was Whiteman Runs Him, Goes Ahead, Hairy Moccasin & Curly(all Crows) who guided him to the hostile encampment.

Custer had promised this land to the Crows just before he attacked. Ho-ka-hey!

Well another wonderful day of tough Sunday Freeping. So the Top 10 list.

Award for finding this week's "Pundit Stuck on Stupid" goes to Bahbah for bringing Fareed Zakaria comment that "Alito is overqualified to be on the SC"!!

Honorable Mention 1st to George W. Bush (Post #107) for bringing up the impact calling and writing your Senators can have and Jveritas (#617) in which he shared with us a copy of his note in support of Sen Pat Roberts attempt to interject factual reality into the current Dem spin lies about their Rule 21 circus act this week. Always good to be remained that it is not enough to just Freep, we also have to DO things to advance the agenda as well.

Also like to note the following for their excellence.

RasterMaster #512 History of the Republican Party. Excellent job of dismantling the nonsense of the Republicans as "racist" party!

Mojo Wire #109 Fox News is becoming Liberal Crap. 95% sucks these days. Nailed it. Frustrating trying to figure out what IS FNC's problem

Elpatriota #570 "McCain is the Mother of all Renegades" GREAT line that is going to come back and bite Sen McMedia TiredofLaundry. "#64, Watching Sunday shows is like watching soaps, miss a few weeks and you can still tune back in an pick right up on the story line.

10. Chrgomac #593 "Why being the "Clean" party never seem to help at the polls.

9. eeevil conservative (My personal choice of our Freeper spokesperson "And now responding on behalf of the Free Republic eeevil Conservative.....");# 592 and 595 about why Republicans, especially Senators, need to defend what is right.

8. Altura, #599 Would really like to see a 50/50% poll of Repbs vrs Dems rather then this game playing with respondent composition. ME TOO!

7. kclv #110 Facts about Joe Wilson's Lies to date. #232 Analysis of Maggie Williams "Hillarys Halderman". Remember that phrase. Solid gold that.

6. Justmythoughts. Started out bringing heat then must of had to go do other stuff. Hope next Sunday you can stick around longer! #12, Who picked Joe Wilson to go to Niger????? 33. Time for Republicans to peel the Joe Wilson Deception. #129 Liberals would be all over Able Danger if they thought they could use it to hurt Bush. #267 Reality does NOT matter to Libs. You are MOST welcome in the thread JMT!

5. Seattle Conservative. Thanks for taking it easy on me this week SC! #226 President Bush said if he encountered Chavez he would "Be polite, it is what the American people expect of their President". #53, Analysis of latest Dem spin lines.# 288 A masterful dismantling of Jimmy "the Moron" Carter #358 McCain points out Congress has lowest poll numbers in 10 years? McCain AND Hagel acting like Republicans today????

4. Ali Veritas #127 Must read. Excellent list of items about Joe Wilson and questions the Republican Leadership MUST ask before this whole circus gets put to bed. #466 Facts of Iraq "UN Mandate" Kennedy totally misrepresented today on Meet the Irrelevant.# 127 Excellent backgrounder on Joe "lying all the time" Wilson's relations with Niger #294 "Yet they (Dinosaurs Media) can fly to Vietnam to (try) and discredit the Swift Boat Vets.

And the top 3??? You will have to wait for Snugs and the Ribbons!
