About the Bobby Jindal-R Win in Louisiana

Bobby Jindal is a second generation Indian-American, and he won the election in Louisiana to become governor of that state. The MSM/media has constructed a narrative that the Republican party has pursued a "Southern strategy" to change the once Democrat south to the now Republican south. Plus, Governor-Elect Jindal is not only a Republican, he is a movement conservative:

Bobby Jindal, a second generation Indian-American, is going to be the new Republican Governor of Louisiana.  Although governors who are black have been elected in Virginia and Massachusetts, this election marks the first time the support of white Southern voters has propelled a non-white governor into office.  Jindal's election is evidence that the much-reviled Republican "Southern Strategy" has actually produced one of the greatest advances for civil rights in the history of the United States.

Here's is Michael Barone's analysis of the Jindal win.

Steve Emerson, Terrorism Expert, Launches New Website

Steve Emerson has long been a hero of mine. He was the force behind the video, American Jihad, long before most Americans (including me, certainly) had any idea that we were seriously threatened by radical Islam. Steve's website is called, The Investigative Project (H/T: The Corner).

What About the Anthrax Attacks?

One of the best books I read after the 9-11 attacks was Laurie Mylroie's Bush vs. the Beltway: How the CIA and the State Department Tried to Stop the War on Terror. Ms. Mylroie worked at the CIA during the Clinton administration, and her book contains excellent information and analyses about Islamofascism and the terror attacks against our country during the 1990's.

The Ace of Spades links today to an American Thinker blog post that quotes Mylroie's recent analysis of the source of the 2001 anthrax attacks:

The article underscores the very sophisticated nature of the anthrax in the letters sent to the two US senators and suggests that Iraq may well have been responsible for it.

Did you know that the 1982 Tylenol Murders were never solved? I sure hope that we find out who the anthrax murders/terrorists are.

Obsession, the Documentary, Is Controversial in the Academy

Obsession, is a vitally important documentary. Using video footage from Arab television, Obsession describes how too many Muslims are indoctrinated into the Islamic Jihad movement. Also depicted, is the historical connection between Nazism and the jihadis. I own a DVD of the movie, and I recommend that all Americans view this important film. I believe that our survival as a country is at stake in our war against radical Islam.

Obsession, the movie, is finally beginning to get some attention.

Glenn Beck Exposes Militant Islam

I don't have cable TV in my house (the 24 hour news channels are too un-American for me), so I didn't see Glenn Beck's CNN Headline News special about radical Islam. But it's now on a blog so all can see.

Electoral Perspective

It's reassuring to be reminded that Ronald Reagan worked his heart out campaigning in 1986 for the goal of GOP gains in the House and Senate. Didn't work out that way (the GOP lost seats in both chambers), but Reagan soldiered on for conservatism. (I didn't know that Jack Kemp called Ronald Reagan was called the Old and Wise One (O&W).

Republicans Need to Hang Tough

The survival of the country is at stake in this election as it was in the past two. Where ex-Rep. Foley is concerned, watch for the Democrats to over reach in their reaction to this scandal in their quest to win majorities in the House/Senate in this election.

And note the double standard. If Clinton, Rep. Barney Franks, Rep. William Jefferson, and former Rep. Stubbs had been Republicans rather than Democrats, they would have been forced to resign also. But they were Dems, so they were welcome to stay.

Center-right bloggers are working away (as they did with Rathergate) to find the answers to some puzzling questions concerning the evolution of this news story. There's evidence that some leftie groups/organizations (plus at least one Democrat Congressman) held on to damning instant messages from Foley to the pages for a long time. Thereby saving this story for the 2006 election, to crush Republicans. So what if Foley got more time to pursue his perversions against children. I hope this turns out not to be the case.

The Foley emails may have been altered?

Discussion here of the Foley affair, Woodward's book and Lawrence Wright's book, The Looming Tower.

Tradesports.com, the gambling site that predicts who will win elections based on gambling bets (much more accurate that opinion polling BTW), puts the chance of Republicans retaining their majority in the House at only 50%. Before the Foley affair the bets were 58% that Repubs would retain their majority. Republicans need to hang tough. We are in a live and death struggle. A vote in the 2006 election for a Democrat (except for Sen. Lieberman), is a vote for vulnerability.

MAJOR UPDATES at Flopping Aces:

The fact that emails were altered is small fry compared to the fact that a known lefty operative appears to have had these emails and IM's for quite some time and didn't release them until now....putting how many kids at risk? For what?

A October Surprise.

Another Innocent Muslim Woman Asssinated by the Islamofacists

Safia Ama Jan was murdered this week by the Taliban in Kandahar, Afghanistan. Her crime? She worked hard to see that girls could receive an education. She lived as a pious Muslim woman, but that did not make up for her advocation. She was shot four times in the head while wearing her burka. She was 56 years old.

In Lawrence Wright's The Looming Tower, we learn that granting certain women's rights was part of what sent Anwar Sadat's assassins over the edge. Women's rights was a major reason that they assassinated Anwar Sadat. From page 48:

Sadat's peace agreement with Israel united the disparate Islamist factions. They were also inflamed by a new law, sponsored by the president's wife, Jihan, that granted women the right to divorce, a privilege not provided by the Quran. In what would prove to be his final speech, Sadat ridiculed the Islamic garb worn by pious women, which he called a "tent," and banned the niqab from the universities. The radicals responded by characterizing the president as a heretic. It is forbidden, under Islamic law, to strike against a ruler unless he doesn't believe in God or the Prophet. The declaration of heresay was an open invitation to assassination.

Zawahiri, Al Qaeda's #2, was involved with the terrorist cells that carried out the assassination of President Anwar Sadat of Egypt.
