Watcher's Council Nominations, June3rd, 2009



The Watcher's Council is a group of some of the most incisive blogs in the`sphere. Every week, the members nominate two posts each, one of their own and one from outside the group for consideration by the whole Council.

So, let's see what we have this week....and do check out the Watcher's take on the first six months of the Obama Administration...


COUNCIL

Joshuapundit - Race Carding Sotomayor - Is the prospective SCOTUS Justice a racist? If she is, does it matter? And given that she's likely to be confirmed anyway, why is this a rare opportunity for conservatives to take advantage of?

For the answers, inquire within.

The Provocateur - Wade Rathke’s Management Council - Another fine piece on the ACORN mafia from Mike Volpe.

The Glittering Eye - Progressives Aren’t Liberals - I couldn't agree with Dave Schuler more on this one.

Rhymes With Right - Sonia Sotomayor: Free Speech Douchebag - Greg unearths an interesting decision that may highlight how the prospective justice views the first amendment.

The Colossus of Rhodey - Yet another reason why the News Journal is sinking Hube points out how his local paper is drowning in a puddle of political correctness.

Bookworm Room - Murderer or Martyr — the George Tiller killer - Ms. Bookworm explores the George Tiller murder case and its implications for the pro-life movement.

Right Truth - Know The Enemy and Destroy Him - Proof that great minds think alike, Debbie has a take on the Tiller murder similar to my own, focusing on how the media and the Federal government treated this as compared with a jihad murder of a US soldier here on American soil the same day...well done, Deb!

Soccer Dad - Where hugo’s huge - Soccer Dad clues us in - it's not just in Latin America.

Wolf Howling - A Bit Of Honesty From Speaker Pelosi - Be still my beating heart! GW caught Granny Botox in a moment of honesty on climate change and cap and trade....

Mere Rhetoric - Abbas: Olmert Offered Us The West Bank And The Right Of Return, But It Wasn’t Good Enough - As Omri points out, these days the 'Palestinians' don't feel any actual negotiations are necessary. They feel they can just wait for Obama to force whatever solution they want on Israel.
