The Watcher's Council Weasel Of The Week!!

 

Fanfare!! It's time It's time to present this weeks' statuette of shame, The Golden Weasel!!

Every Tuesday, the Council nominates some of the slimiest, most despicable characters in public life for some deed of evil, cowardice or corruption they've performed. Then we vote to single out one particular Weasel for special mention, to whom we award the statuette of shame, our special, 100% plastic Golden Weasel. This weeks' nominees were all certainly contenders  but by a nose, here is our winner..

 

President Barack Hussein Obama!

 The Noisy Room:  Barack Obama for his 'Latte Salute' of his Marine guard this past week. It was one of the most disgraceful, disrespectful things I have ever seen. The salute reveals Obama's true feelings towards the military and his contempt and utter disrespect for our warriors. How very un-presidential... how very un-Commander-in-Chief.

While it is protocol for U.S. service members in uniform to salute the Commander-in-Chief, it’s not required for a civilian president to salute back, military experts say. Ronald Reagan is thought to have set precedent for the practice back in 1981, so this is also a slap at Reagan. The salute is not required, but expected by Americans and the military. Since Obama is also left handed, some looked at this gesture as calculated. He did it with his right hand. By the way, Obama is a tea drinker normally, not a coffee drinker.


The Independent Sentinel: I have to name Barack Obama again. He blamed the intelligence community for his refusal to act on the ISIS threat during a 60 Minutes interview Sunday.

“Well, I think our head of the intelligence community, Jim Clapper, has acknowledged that I think they underestimated what had been taking place in Syria,” Obama told Steve Kroft of 60 Minutes.
Everyone in the world who is paying attention knows he's lying.

Congrats, Mr. President! The statuette of shame is yours, and richly deserved!


Accepting the award for the president was one Armando Perez, who claimed he was the president's golf caddy. The only ID he had on him was a Mexican  Matricula Consular card, but I figure if that's good enough for ICE and the DHS it's good enough for us.And at least he wasn't coughing and didn't have any running sores or anything...



  Well, there it is!  Check back every Tuesday  to check out our  Weasel of the Week nominees and every Thursday to see who walks off with the statuette of shame!

And remember, every Wednesday, the Council has its weekly contest with the members nominating two posts each, one written by themselves and one written by someone from outside the group for consideration by the whole Council. The votes are cast by the Council, and the results are posted on Friday morning.

It’s a weekly magazine of some of the best stuff written in the blogosphere, and you won’t want to miss it...or any of the other fantabulous Watcher's Council content.
