We’re trying something new at the Watcher of Weasels site:  two people in a back and forth debate about a political issue.  Today’s issue is whether, as the consistent Sen. Kucinich has demanded, Obama should be the subject of impeachment efforts.  Greg, who blogs at Rhymes with Right, and former

It’s rare for me to say this, but I’m going to have to skip this week’s vote, because I have neither the time nor the energy to give this week’s submissions (as well as the Honorable Mentions) the attention they deserve.  However, just because I can’t read them doesn’t mean

Even by Watcher’s Council standards, last week saw some extraordinary articles.  I’m sure, therefore, that you’ll be interested in the voting results: Council Winners *First place with 2 1/3 votes! – Joshuapundit-–Eyes Wide Shut – Dealing With ‘Anti-Zionism’ On Campus Second Place with 1 2/3 Votes –The Noisy Room- Imperial

Sorry for the silence today.  Not long after I put up my first, short post, I got a call from a client, and have spent the rest of the day working.  I didn’t even get the chance to recommend to all of you that you check out this week’s Watcher’s

As always, my brain is expanding with every word I read from this week’s Watcher’s Council nominations: Council Submissions The Noisy Room – So, What is the Going Price for a Soul Nowadays? Rhymes With Right – The OTHER Problems With Public Sector Unions Simply Jews – Moammar Gadhafi and

I was very gratified this week, because I won on the Council side and my submission for non-Council (Zombie) won too.  It’s not a trifecta, but maybe a bifecta? Council Winners *First place with 3 1/3 votes! – Bookworm Room-–Thoughts about the Wisconsin teachers’ union Second place with 2 2/3

The one thing about crises at home and abroad is that they inspire people to deep thoughts.  The Watchers are on it.  (This week is also special, because we welcome a new council member, The Political Commentator.) Council Submissions Rhymes With Right – A Texas Teacher Looks At Wisconsin The

In the past, the Watcher of Weasels site limited itself to two posts a week:  one listing the nominations (both council and non-council), and the other listing the winners (both council and non-council).  Because this system left so much good stuff on the table, the Watcher of Weasels is adding

Every week, I think that Council members can’t top the week that came before, and every week they surprise me.  It just gets better and better.  Apparently world crisis inspires council members and the non-council bloggers they nominate.  Here are the winners for last week: Council Winners *First place with

I’m enjoying reading the following posts, courtesy of the Watcher’s Council.  I bet you’ll like them too.  Also, if you go to the Watcher’s Council page, you’ll see some really cool social network stuff floating along the bottom of your screen.

I knew that the post I submitted for this week’s Watcher’s Council vote was pretty good ( wouldn’t have submitted it otherwise), but I was so completely overwhelmed by the high quality of the other submissions, I assumed I wouldn’t even show up on the winner’s map.  I was therefore

The one good thing about living in exciting times is that those times create good reading material.  A case in point is the submissions I got to read for this week’s Watcher’s Council vote.  Here — you can read them too: Council Submissions The Noisy Room – Of Philanthropists and
