I’m still agog at the quality of the Watcher’s submissions this week: Council Submissions The Colossus of Rhodey – “You have to trust your gut” Right Truth – Truths About the Democrat Health Care Bill Mere Rhetoric – Anti-Israel WH Officials Targeting American Jews With “Leaked” Dual Loyalty Smears Bookworm Room

Better late than never, especially when the winners were so very, very good.  Here: Winning Council Submissions First place with 3* points! –The Colossus of Rhodey – The inanity of the rest of the West Second place with 2 points – Mere Rhetoric – Liberal Anti-Tea Party Outrage Overflowing With

What I’m reading is this week’s group of Watcher’s Council submissions and why I recommend them is that they hit the ball out of the park, again and again and again.  I always says that the submissions are good, because they always are, but this week is exceptional: Council Submissions

I meant to post yesterday the Watcher’s Council submissions, so that you could see what we were voting on last night, but the day just slipped away from me.  I can, however, let you know today how the vote turned out.  I’m quite flattered that my fellow Council members thought

I’m going to start reviewing the Watcher’s Council nominations for this week (which I’ll post later today), but for n0w, let’s catch up with last week’s results: Winning Council Submissions First place with 3 points! – Wolf Howling –  AP Goes APE Over Texas School Book Changes Second place *t* with

It seems that, just as Pat Paulson was the perennial presidential candidate, I am the inevitable second place winner.  I’m not complaining.  I like it there.   But it is a little funny that second place is the spot I keep falling in.  Oh, and about those winners?  They’re really, really

A new week, new submissions — and a new Watcher!  Here are this week’s posts, and you can go here to meet Soccer Dad (whom many of you already know, of course): Council Submissions Mere Rhetoric – Obama Giving Up On “Crippling” Iran Sanctions Colossus of Rhodey – More “logic” from that

Okay, awkward post title, but I just felt like writing something different and the options are limited.  It was a good week at the Watcher’s Council, though, with some overwhelmingly good posts in the running, with the result that some overwhelmingly good posts won: Winning Council Submissions First place with

For your (and my) consideration this week: Council Submissions Wolf Howling – Public Sector Unions: A Toxin, A Crisis & An Opportunity The Provocateur – Glenn Beck: Are You Serious Mere Rhetoric – Syria Responds To Obama’s Engagement, Publicly Mocks Clinton And Embraces Iran The Colossus of Rhodey – Lessons

I missed last week’s Watcher’s vote, as I was out of town, but I still took the time to read the wonderful submissions when I got the chance.  This week’s submissions were equally good.  Here, in one action packed post are the winners for the past two rounds of voting.

I think this might be the third time in four weeks that I’ve taken second place at the Watcher’s Council (although I haven’t confirmed this impression).  I think that’s higher than my posts deserve, so am most grateful to my fellow council members: Winning Council Submissions First place with 2

Another week, and another opportunity to read the stellar collection of material at the Watcher’s Council.  As for that first one on the list, from Mere Rhetoric, I blogged about the Apache sales last May, when it was a mere rumor.  Now, Omri blogs that the rumor is probably true,

As I gear up to submit one of my own posts and someone else’s post to the Watcher’s Council for its weekly vote, it behooves me to let you know the outcome of last week’s vote, one distinguished by stellar submissions, even by the Council’s already high standards: Winning Council

How does the Council manage to get better every week?  Perhaps we’re getting to be better writers and thinkers with practice.  Perhaps the current political scene gives us lots of material to work with.  I don’t know.  I just know that I like what I’m reading: Council Submissions Mere Rhetoric

After yet another week of sterling Council submissions, the votes are in and counted at the Watcher’s Council.  Here are the results: Winning Council Submissions First place with 1 2/3 points! – Mere Rhetoric – Wonderful: Iraqis Permanently Scratch Out Ancient Hebrew Inscription Biblical Prophet’s Tomb Second place with 1
