Others have mentioned our notables. I'd like to add a few more:

LS always offers excellent perspective. He's my favorite historian (after Victor Davis Hanson).

I wish I was half as witty as Petronski, and he's not always cranky.

Dan from Michigan knows his politics and his hockey. What more could you want?

Whatever Constitution Day writes is worth reading, trust me.

Dales and DrDeb will help me keep my sanity this fall, I hope. If you have any interest in polling, statistics, or electoral politics, watch their posts.

I have lots of favorites, but Dr. Silverback's Caption-a-Rama posts are great fun.

[Petronski]

I'm just thrilled and proud just to be nominated in such an esteemed group:

;O)

I read the entire thread, and I don't know if I feel competent to supply a complete list, but I'll try to be as inclusive as I can [in no particular order]

Lazamataz: just great
Registered: "Sore Loserman" makes him the greatest
BlackElk: a depth of knowlege and skill with language which astounds me
onyx: the most generous and caring Freeper I have ever met
martin_fierro: damn twisted and downright subversive humor
JohnHuang2: posting machine
Kattracks: ditto (how do you two do it?)
American in Tokyo and American in Israel: on the scene bluntness
Howlin: grand dame of the ping list
Alouette: gentle to friends, warrior-like to enemies, and great with photoshop
SJackson: he will provide whatever you need to know about Israel and her enemies
MadIvan: come back, dude
Section9: except for the graphic, freaking brilliant and spot on
classygreeneyedblonde: You fooled me...kudos
mkking: Just Damn!
doug from upland: how do you ever find the time and resources?
Physicist: abundant wisdom and the gift to convey it to my liberal-arts mind
John H K: resident skeptic/curmudgeon; always throwing water on the fires of the drama queens
Dan from Michigan: my prolife hero
Liz: love the 'death of Disney' threads
bogdan_polska: best new guy in years



I've been here long enough to forget more favorites than I remember, but that's why I can't resist coming back again and again.



BEST OF ALL: Jim and John Robinson....what a fantastic dream, made true...Epic. Fabulous. Thanks.

Dan from Michigan knows his politics and his hockey. What more could you want?

Well, he knows his beer, too. Go Bruins!

I'll add rrrrrrrrrrrrod, fieldmarshaldj, russianconservative -- and I think I have to add Constitution Day because I still feel bad about that homoerotic Roy Cooper crack I made a year ago.

That's the First Team -- not going to get into honorable mentions -- everyone else, you're #6.

[Constitution Day]

Whatever Constitution Day writes is worth reading, trust me.

Wow, thanks TonyInOhio!
You are too kind.
