Watcher's Council Results & An Opening

Each week, the Watcher's Council holds a contest for best post. The Council members submit a post they have written and one post by someone outside the Council for consideration. The Watcher tallies the votes and announces the winners each Friday.

There is an opening on the Council. If you would care to submit your blog for consideration, please visit the Watcher's site. You will find instructions on the right side bar for applying to join the Council.

You can find the results of the weeks voting and the Watcher's cogent commentary on the submissions here. This week's winners were:

Coming in first place was Mere Rhetoric's The WH’s Eight-Step Plan For Detonating The US-Israel Relationship, a look at how Obama is subtly but surely taking actions that undermine the "unbreakable bonds" between the U.S. and Israel. Coming in a distant second was my post on the many problems with Obama's Cairo speech, Obama’s Cairo Address: What We Needed, What We Got.

In the Non-Council catgory, coming in first place was an article from Ralph Peters also on Obama's questionable Cairo speech, What Obama Taught Me- Wonderful Arabs, American Slavers, Wicked Jews. Coming in second place was a Victor Davis Hanson post at PJM, The Reckoning.
