Watcher's Council Nominations: "The marshal calls for a faster pace of play" Edition!

President Obama is being asked by the "course marshal", aka the American people, for a faster pace of play concerning the looming Fiscal Cliff!

Given the fact that Barack Obama is fiddling with one more round of golf in Hawaii today as the fuse burning towards the economic bomb otherwise known as the Fiscal Cliff moves closer and closer to ignition, a reference to a golf course marshal imploring quicker play is highly appropriate!

Because in reality the problem is that there is no sense of urgency indicated by the actions of any of the players involved in these "negotiations" that are, in effect, not taking place at all.

The President will be back in Washington some time tonight with Senators possibly tomorrow and members of the House at some point after that.

A little pathetic if you ask me but nobody really asked me!

But, I suppose that vacation is after all vacation in Washington although truth be told most Americans wouldn't know much about that these days!

Now on to...

The Watcher's Council
These are the Watcher's Council nominations for the week of December 24, 2012!
For those who may be enjoying their first Watcher's Council experience, it is a group that consists of some of the top conservative bloggers from around the world.
A group that The Political Commentator is extremely proud to have been asked to be part of!
Each week members select and submit an article of their own creation in addition to one article from a non-council blog they find to be particularly topical and important.
While you may not always agree with what you read, that alone may make the experience that much more valuable!
Once the submissions have been received at an undisclosed location hidden somewhere on the Left Coast of the United States, the Watchers Council members then individually vote for their favorites.
Those votes are protected and held by outside auditing firm Arthur Andersen until such time as they are counted and a winner named for the Grand Prize.
This Grand Prize consists of the appreciation of ones peers.
In the end though, we all win because of the range of information and important analysis received on the critical issues of the day.
In a nutshell, the Watcher's Council is the ultimate conservative blog aggregator!
So without further ado the article nominations for the week of December 24, 2012 are...?
