Watcher's Winners

Bookworm has a knack for taking an ages-old issue -- oh, say the Middle East morass -- and presenting it with sparkling new clarity. That's what she did this week in her post Why Jews are right to suspect Obama's advisors, and that's why she's the winner in this week's Watcher's Council competition for the best o' the blogs.

Soccer Dad came in second with Dear Dr. Hoyt, which exposes academic antisemitism. My post, UN Peacekeepers raping children ... again, came in tied for fourth.

Among the non-Watcher's Council entries, Deep thoughts with Biggie Smalls, tales of an Iraqi translator from Kaboom, came in first, followed by a second-place tie: Over Red Coffee Cans and Cigarettes from long-time blog-friend The Paragraph Farmer and Return to Sender from Iowahawk. The latter, as regular Iowahawk readers will know, is a humorous piece, regaling politicians for the conversions they go under because of DC fever. The Paragraph Farmer's piece is an imaginary conversation on appeasement with his colorful but passed on grandmother.

Thanks, Watcher of Weasels, for tying all the ballet slippers nice and tight so another entertaining dance of the electrons could be performed.
