Council speak 11/09/2007

The Council has spoken and determined the winning council and non-council posts of the week.

Congratulations to Big Lizards for his Courts v. Terrorism = Wile E. Coyote v. Road Runner - an assessment of the weaknesses inherent in using the justice system to fight terror - the winning council entry this week. The winning non-council post came from Council alum, Eternity Road, explaining why the rich have been becoming Democrats and why that is likely to reverse itself in A great shifting of the winds.

The council runner up, I'm pleased to say, was me for Unsex me ... not. While I didn't get the tiebreaker, I don't know that I've ever gotten a score of 3 before, so thank you fellow watchers for your votes! The runner up non-council post was Thompson goes electric at Real Clear Politics, explaining how the former actor managed to get onto his chrome horse.

Last week, due to time constraints, I didn't post the runners up. So here goes. Last week's council runner up was Why Hate Crimes Are a Joke Part 5783, and Why the University of Delaware Digs 'em at Colossus of Rhodey. It's a must-read about the University of Delaware's thought crimes policy. The non-council runner up was I'm sorry ... was that supposed to be journalism? at Confederate Yankee.
