Category: Watcher of Weasels

Showing myself to be in synch with my fellow council members, my first place votes in each category — council member and non-council member — won.  So, without further throat-clearing, I present the first and second place winners in each category. On the council side, a much deserved first place

Sadly, the Watcher of Weasels suffered some sort of catastrophic technical failure and was unable to fulfill the ordinary Watcher functions this week. At Joshuapundit, however, Freedom Fighter has kindly taken the time to assemble links to the articles the Council Members would have voted on, had there been a

Today is the voting day over at the Watcher’s Council, so I’m going through the posts fellow Council members selected for the week.  You really can’t do better than this stuff, and I recommend each post highly: Bullshit! Done With Mirrors The Candidates on the Economy: Taxes The Glittering Eye

Both of the posts I voted for as my favorite Watcher nominations won 1st place. I was actually a little uncomfortable about Fjordman’s post, the winning non-council post, since it does seem to be the first step in a national front movement in Europe. Nevertheless, I thought it was a

Watcher’s results are in, and this time I’m on top of things. On the Council side, first place went to Done With Mirrors for the best post I’ve seen about the media’s “Grim Milestone” watch:  Get Your Grim Milestone Today?  Second place was for my post, “What Would You Do?,”

I’m about to start on a scintillating morning of research about federal diversity jurisdiction and choice of law questions.  Please excuse, therefore, the brevity with which I present the winners from last week’s and this week’s Watcher’s Council votes.  I can assure you that the winning posts were excellent, as

The bad news is that Big Lizards is leaving the Watcher’s Council, which has enjoyed the wonderful bounty of his posts for a year now.  The good news, however, is that, if you are interested in joining the Watcher’s Council, now is your chance to apply. In my search for

This was, again, one of those weeks during which I was completely in synch with my fellow Watcher’s Council members, and voted for the winning posts.  First place went to Big Lizard’s for his excellent expose of the unhappy “coincidences” that just seem to happen to Obama’s political opponents, leaving

Since I was away last week, the Watcher’s election just passed me by.  Nevertheless, I would be more than remiss if I didn’t notify you about the fine winners (and placers and showers) on both sides of the aisle, council and non-council.  As is often the case when I read

From statements I’ve periodically made, you may have gathered that this has been a rather challenging week. The almost frantic blogging I did was a respite from an overwhelming work load, made more difficult by having a sick child in the background. What I complete managed to miss in the

These Watcher’s Winners aren’t so recent anymore, since the results came out last Friday, but my last days after been so overwhelming, I figure I’m still ahead of my own curve getting the information up here by Wednesday.  First, the Winners, then any comments I might have. On the Council

I freely admit it wasn’t one of my best posts, so I can’t say I’m surprised to have squeaked in with only one vote.  Oh! You want to know what I’m talking about? Last week’s Weasel results, of course. But enough about my rather dismal showing. Let’s talk about the

Where does the time go? I’ve meant since Friday to post about the winner’s of last week’s Watcher’s vote, and here it is Sunday afternoon and I’m only just getting around to it. Say what you will, but you can’t describe me as someone who’s on the ball. Here are

Time flew, and I forgot to post the winner’s in the last vote over at the Watcher of Weasels. Let me start, for once, on the non-Council side, where the winning piece got the highest vote I’ve ever seen in my time on the Watcher’s council — and deservedly so.

The Weasel Watchers have cast their votes and the results, as always, are good. On the Council side, first place went to Soccer Dad for The Freddys Seven, which looks at Al Sharpton’s utterly reprehensible career, and castigates the Democratic candidates for genuflecting to him. The post exposes one of
