Top Ten for Sunday, January 7, 2007

Tenth Place Gritty

«Great posts, including these two which stand out.  The first one nicely wraps up the problems with this weeks shows (playing off of a post by maica) and the second lays out the issues we truly are facing (but are being ignored by the DBM)

Ninth Place Morgan in Denver

«From the middle of the disaster area that is the American West (don't you love global warming?) MiD still manages to contribute important posts (even if he can't count)

Eighth Place rodguy911

« Great insight and commentary, multiple interesting links and snappy banter... what's not to like?

Seventh Place Txsleuth

« Strong running commentary and analysis, with informative insights and external references.

Sixth Place Miss Marple

« Examples of almost every type of post that I like, ranging from sharp hits at those on the shows who deserve it to strong and illuminating analysis.  Well done!

Fifth Place shrinkermd

« An important and insightful post drawing on one of the more interesting (yet obscure) voices of the 20th century.  Where else but FR?

Fourth Place Chuck54

« Great commentary on the shows and a valuable external link that adds the kind of extra dimension that makes this thread so important (even when the shows themselves fall down on the job worse than they normally do!)

Third Place anita

« Great analysis, as always, and some very biting wit as well this week.  I look forward to the ever valuable Media Nuggets as one my favorite posts each week and this weeks was especially strong.

Second Place maica

« Great posts this week, with a bit more cynicism than usual, accompanied by some great zingers and some very insightful comments.

First Place Bahbah

« Valuable commentary that plucks out the important points from the shows and highlights the more absurd abuses by the DBM and their guests.  It was apparent this week that fewer of us actually watched the shows and these posts spawned some excellent discussions that were on point and pulled out value from what otherwise looked like wasted programs.

Biden vs. Graham....A SMARMY-FEST!!! ... Quick, change the channel before the controls become too oily to work!"

This is just such a wonderful comment. I laughed out loud the first time I read it, and now I had the same pleasure all over again. Those poseurs really should read this thread every week. Remeber what Burns said about the power the giftie gee us!

Oops. Hadn't gone all the way to the end. Frankly, I think everyone else is tons smarter than me, but I love the company and the commentary on this thread and I am grateful to everyone who participates in it.

For years, I endured this alone (small children cannot be induced to be interested in why mother is talking to the tv, it just confuses them), until Alas and you all came along and there were answers to "Did I really just hear that" and "What are they trying to pull now."

Ya'll saved my sanity, I swear.

I am glad you enjoyed my comment. Truly, it was an inspired from a Power outside my brain. It IS appropriate, isn't it?

Congratulations, you had a lot of stiff competition but you deserved #1. It was a really great thread, and the Cooking and Pet talk helped to beat back the stench of the Rats that permeates The Sunday Talk Shows. I am always overwhelmed by the Intellect and profound commentary, and investigative work done by Freepers. It is stimulating and thought provoking and ideas, and commentary posted here are repeated on the Conservative Talk Radio Programs and make them (The Hosts) appear witty and Intelligent, and very strategic. The Top Ten Judges cut through all those great posts and make it look easy. We know it is not, and we thank them for their sacrifice, and expertise, time and patience. Tomorrow will be another great thread......Let's roll.........
