I decided to take today off from blogging, have one piece upcoming on the political implications of Obama’s shift on gay marriage, but after that may not post again until tomorrow afternoon. But, don’t be disappointed, even if my blogging is slow, there’s lots of good stuff from the Watcher of Weasels.
I thought a good number of the submissions last time with particularly strong, so encourage you to peruse this list and follow the links if you’re looking for some good blog reading. It’s not to say I share the perspectives presented in each of the posts, but that I found many to be thought-provoking and otherwise insightful, so enjoy!
And bear in mind–just because they didn’t win doesn’t mean they’re very good. 🙂
