Welcome to the Watcher’s Council, a blogging group consisting of some of the most incisive blogs in the ‘sphere and the longest running group of its kind in existence. Every week, the members nominate two posts each, one written by themselves and one written by someone from outside the group for consideration by the whole Council. Then we vote on the best two posts, with the results appearing on Friday.
Council News:
This week, Ask Marion and The Pirate’s Cove took advantage of my generous offer of link whorage and earned honorable mention status with some great articles.
You can, too! Want to see your work appear on the Watcher’s Council homepage in our weekly contest listing? Didn’t get nominated by a Council member? No worries.
Simply head over to Joshuapundit and post the title and a link to the piece you want considered along with an e-mail address (which won’t be published) in the comments section no later than Monday 6 PM PST in order to be considered for our honorable mention category and return the favor by creating a post on your site linking to the Watcher’s Council contest for the week.
It’s a great way of exposing your best work to Watcher’s Council readers and Council members, while grabbing the increased traffic and notoriety. And how good is that, eh?

Trevor,
I would like to see if the people who illegally taped McConnells meetings had hidden microphones in other offices and or phones. Was it the DOJ?
Remember when it seemed that Obama had the perfect political moves to counter the GOP in his first term? Kind of like the Patriots football team that seemed to have the perfect play calls against other teams, when it turned out that they had been video taping their opponents.
Things just don’t seem right. Keep in mind all the secret meetings by Obamas admin across the street of the WH so that thye can get pass the WH records laws.
