The Watcher’s Council has announced its picks for the most outstanding posts of the preceding week. The winning Council post was Joshuapundit’s post, “Guess Where Your President Was Wednesday Morning…Insh’allahâ€. For second place there was a rare four-way tie which would have been a five-way tie had a non-participation penalty not been imposed on Right Wing Nut House. Apparently, there was a difference of opinion in the Council about each other’s posts this week.
The winning non-Council post was Michael Yon’s post, “Bless the Beasts and Childrenâ€. This post is Michael’s account of the discovery of a mass grave in Iraq. It is graphic, jarring, disturbing, and not to be missed. Second place honors went to Small Wars Journal’s post, “Understanding Current Operations in Iraq’â€. This post by David Kilcullen is must reading whatever your political position or stance on operations in Iraq.
The complete results are here.
As I pointed out to Bookworm Room last week, you’re performing a static analysis. Sure add 2/3 to RightWingNuthouse’s score and you get 1 1/3; however he would have voted too! If he would have voted for any of the #2’s he would have affected their score too!

True, Rick might have broken the tie. He also might have voted for Dafydd ab Hugh’s post and made it a six-way tie.
