Do you ever get the feeling that President Obama doesn’t have America’s interests at heart.  At the Noisy Room, Terresa has the same feeling, and she’s got the facts to support it.  No wonder, then, that she won this week’s Watcher’s Council vote.  Read the whole Watcher’s Council post below

I’m enjoying myself reading the latest batch of nominations for the Watcher’s Council. Please feel free to read them too. Below the fold, you’ll find the Watcher’s post, introducing the nominations.

Here they are — this week’s Watcher’s Council nominations: Welcome to the Watcher’s Council, a blogging group consisting of some of the most incisive blogs in the ‘sphere, and the longest running group of its kind in existence. Every week, the members nominate two posts each, one written by themselves

Here it is, straight from the Watcher’s mouth.  Oh, wait a sec!  Before I get there, let me remind you to check out the Watcher’s Council forum, in which you can read interesting opinions from Council members about the Super Bowl.  I got overwhelmed by family matters and didn’t respond

Having read this week’s Watcher’s Council nominations, I can assure you that they are superb. As always, crisis brings out the best in people who write political and social opinion pieces. I’d rather write badly in times of peace, but we take what we can. Here, verbatim, is the Watcher’s

The Council has spoken and, as always, what it has to say is interesting, current, and informative. There are many worse ways to spend time than perusing the Watcher’s Council winners:

I just realized — shame on me! — that I forget to keep you apprised of last week’s Watcher’s Council winners. As is the case every week, the posts, both council and non-council, are almost embarrassingly good. I mean, there’s something downright greedy about having those intellectual riches spread about

Every Thursday, it’s my honor and my pleasure to read and vote upon the week’s Watcher’s Council submissions. The following is the verbatim replication of this week’s nominations post from the Watcher’s Council site.  Incidentally, it really is my continuing honor to serve on the Council.  My fellow Council members

It was the last vote for 2014, and these are the first Watcher’s Council winners for 2015. If these inaugural winners are anything to go by, the Watcher’s Council is in for a good year. And speaking of good years, before I get to the results, let me first share

This is it! The following post, copied verbatim from the Watcher of Weasels site, marks the very last round of nominations for 2014. I hope you enjoy them as much as I did: Welcome to the Watcher’s Council, a blogging group consisting of some of the most incisive blogs in

Another Christmas put to bed, and now I have some quiet time. I’m going to spend this time reading and voting on this week’s Watcher’s Council nominations. Here’s the relevant post from that site:
