Every week, the Watcher's Council nominate two posts each, one from the Council members and one from outside for consideration by the whole Council. The complete list of this week’s Council nominations can be found at our fearless leader's site Watcher of Weasels
1.Dr. Sanity: FANTASY ENVIRONMENTALISM - Breathing New Life Into The Socialist Agenda
In which Doctor Sanity comments on the `global warming' pundits and their political underpinnings.
2. J O S H U A P U N D I T: Jew hater Bush?!?? You can say a lot of things about President Bush, but to call his obvious disgust with the New York Times a code word for Jew hatred? Yet a moron masquerading as a serious columnbist, one Jon Carroll from the San Francisco Chronicle did exactly that. I don't do this often, but this creep deserves a bit of a horsewhipping as we examine who the real Jew haters are in America these days. Lot of fun
3.Done With Mirrors: Among the dead CitiesInteresting...Callimachus critiques the ethical stance of a book that puts forth the proposition that the allied bombings of Germany and Japan in WWII were unjustified. I know at least two ex-GI's who's lives were probably saved by the bombing of Japan...and in any case, when one looks at how the Japanese and Germans waged war with the backing of an enthusiastic populace...well, karma.
4. The Education Wonks: Dumbing It On Down EdWonk examines how history, the arts and the sciences are being dumbed down in schools to allow for the teaching of basic math and reading..and takes on the argument that No Child Left Behind is the culprit.
5. The Strata-Sphere: Liberal Contortions To Avoid Blame AJ shows why the Left has trouble dealing with why, in his words " their partisan Jihad against Bush has not culminated in exposing all Americans to heightened risk of a terrorist attack."
6. Lives, fortunes, and sacred honor : New World Man Matt talks about teaching the message of July Fourth to his children. Cute!
7.Gates of Vienna: The Wild, Wild West(ern Europe) Dymphna comes up with an entertaining comparison of the crime rates in the US versus the peaceful, civilized society of Western Europe. Would the higher percentage of certain adherants of the Religion of Peace have anything to do with that, I wonder?
8. ShrinkWrapped: July 4, 1976Shrinkwrapped talks about the heroic Israeli rescue at Entebbe..thrity years ago yesterday.
9. Rhymes With Right: CD22 Precinct Chairs Pick HaiglerGreg looks at Tom DeLay's possible successor.
10.Right Wing Nut House : ESCAPING THE LEGAL AND MORAL QUAGMIRE OF GUANTANAMORick's contrarian examination of the Hamdan decision and what it could mean...very well done and food for thought.
11. The Glittering Eye:Why haven’t we captured Osama bin Laden? Dave asks the question, and attempts an answer.
12. The Sundries Shack:Happy Birthday America (UPDATED: With Fruit and a Bonus Lecture from John Kerry, Super American!)
Jimmie Bise's July Fourth tribute, in which he asks this question among others...why doesn't John Kerry just shut up already? I mean, it's one thing to get away with betraying your country...it's another thing to brag about it. Oh, and did you know Kerry served in Viet Nam?
