Who Is the Indian Giver

You gave us food and we took your land

It's not right to make promises grand

  We took all your stuff

  Till you said enough --

And gave General Custer his last stand

Gerard Keogh Jr. Date: 12/11/2010 5:41:00 PM Yes, and we called it a massacre instead of a defeat. He was an arrogant fool who misread the warning signs and put his troops in a deathtrap. If he had survived, he should have been court-martialed and shot. Vainglory fool. Nice topic and a nice twist. Good job! Regards, Gerard. Login to Reply

Carolyn Devonshire Date: 12/4/2010 9:02:00 AM Heard the Native Americans cut off Custer's ear as a symbol. Maybe they didn't want to hear more of his lies. Great entry for the contest -- similar to one by Joyce Johnson. Check it out, Diane. Best wishes, Carolyn Login to Reply

James Fraser Date: 12/4/2010 8:24:00 AM There have certainly been a few battles where the white man met his match. Little Big Horn being the primaral conflict. But typical man in a United States, even managed to fight amongst themselves. Terrific Limerick Diane, and good luck in the contest >> James :) Login to Reply
