The Watchers Council Picks the Week's Best Posts
The Watcher of Weasel Council Christmas winners are up.
Taking first in the Council submissions is Bookworm Room's "The Communist cat is out of the climate change bag" which notes:
[The media] don't want the American people to see or know anything about all of this and, because it lacks good visuals, it's easy to hide. There's a revolution taking place, and the media is doing its damndest to bury it.
In the non-Council submissions the admirable Michael Yon takes top honors with his reporting on Arghandab & The Battle for Kandahar:
First, let's talk about understanding "the borders." They are fictitious. The "borders" that describe the "country" of Afghanistan have trivial effect on the enemy, but the borders (without quotes) greatly affect Pakistan and the Coalition. The AfPak frontier will be sealed the day frogs stop croaking.
