Watchers Council Nominations - Insincerity As A Political Ideology

YYYYYY

Each week, the members of the Watchers Council nominate one of their own posts and a second from outside the Council for consideration by other council members in a contest for the week's best post. My submissions for this week are roughly "liberals always support the war we're not in" and "liberal American Jews always support Israeli self-defense except when Israel actually tries to defend itself." It's almsot like they're being insincere.

I think I've already locked down my favorites for the week, though I'm still in the air about my non-Council picks. Feel free to sound off which ones you would chose under the Mere Rhetoric Facebook page under this post.

In the meantime, make sure you check out the most current post on the Watchers site. TV stations won't show a picture of Muhammad delivering a pizza, but peeing on Jesus is oh so risque. Dumb.
