My election day prediction

Online punduts are throwing out their election day predictions, so here is mine. If I'm wrong, I'll leave it up for all to see, but I think I will be close.

Republicans keep the House and the Senate. The write-in campaign will work for Shelley Sekula-Gibbs in Texas-22, Tom Delay's seat. Enough Republicans will punch Foley for Negron, and Negron will take Florida-16. Steele will take Maryland over Cardin. Talent will narrowly defeat McCaskill, and Corker will dominate Ford.

The Senate is a lock, but I think we are going to just squeak by in the House. The thing that's going to suck the most is the lawsuits that are sure to follow ... The ads will be gone from the televisions, but the overblown legal drama will take their place.

The Leak

In the past few weeks, it was pointed out that George Bush approved some CIA leaks. The White House is not denying this claim and, if anything, states that the leak was legal. Legal or not, I don't care. If it really was legal, then the White House shouldn't have lied to the American public when the leak issue came up a few years ago and instead should have stood up to the plate and said "yeah, we did it...and it's legal...sorry for any problems this may have caused." Instead, from 2004:

Wednesday, February 11, 2004 Posted: 1:46 AM EST (0646 GMT) WASHINGTON (CNN) -- President Bush said Tuesday he welcomes a Justice Department investigation into who revealed the classified identity of a CIA operative.

"If there's a leak out of my administration, I want to know who it is," Bush told reporters at an impromptu news conference during a fund-raising stop in Chicago, Illinois. "If the person has violated law, that person will be taken care of.

"I welcome the investigation. I am absolutely confident the Justice Department will do a good job.

"I want to know the truth," the president continued. "Leaks of classified information are bad things."


But hey, 2004 was an election year...not a good time to be forthcoming, even if it was 'legal'.

Judge Recuses Himself Over Pledge Of Allegiance

Sister Toldja chimes in with a story about a Judge who recused himself after a lawyer in his court filed a complaint over the fact that Gwinnett County Majistrate Judge Mark A. Lewis opens each session with the Pledge of Allegiance. The lawyer, Donald Weissman had this to say:

Weissman said he’s concerned that failure to recite the pledge could affect fairness in the courtroom.

“The more I thought about it, the more concerned I became about whether people in the courtroom might perceive some degree of partiality based upon whether your loyalty is to the United States or not,” he said.

Today's Buzzword: Mexitude

I found a post on Michelle Malkin's blog today that talks about another hysterical school Principal banning the display of American patriotism. Over at Freedom Folks, they are calling it Mexitude.

Mex-i-tude The de facto control of social and political policy by illegal aliens.

Think dhimmitude, but substitute Colorado for Kandahar, and La Raza for The Religion of Peace.

I think they've hit the nail right on the head. In today's society of multicultralism, even showing patriotism for your own country is now taboo. I thought that was the whole point of America. Everyone coming here to be one people. Not Mexican-Americans, African-Americans, etc ... Americans. How many people have you met who call themselves "English-Americans" or "Euro-Americans"? None. Because most immigrants from western countries assimilate, and consider themselves American. That's the point. The melting pot.

Jay Tea over at Wizbang is calling these non-immigrants colonists. Spot on brother, spot on.

Iraqi Minister Muhammed Saeed al-Sahaf finds a new job

There are no levee breaches in New Orleans. I repeat, there are no levee breaches in New Orleans. Ignore what you are seeing on Fox News, CNN, MSNBC, and any other infidel media outlet. They are telling lies, and we will destroy them. Thank you, that will be all.

New catchphrase for the 21st Century

Don't get stuck on stupid! That's the new catchphrase coined by Lt. General Russel Honore today during a press conference with New Orleans mayor Nagin. During the press conference, where the mayor was attempting to get details of preparations for Rita, after being berated by reporters about Katrina, Lt. General Honore stepped forward and set the reporters straight. The Political Teen has the video and Radio Blogger has the transcript and an mp3.

Black panthers back

Check out this video from The Political Teen of Minister Hashim Nzinga on Hannity & Colmes today. I thought it would be appropriate to give you all a bit of background on this whacko. It appears he has a very common theme. Reparations for blacks. Don't believe me? Read the 9 local objectives of the New Black Panther Party. And if that's not enough, read their 10 point program. And for another laugh read the membership application where one all important field is missing ... race. And Fox News just gave these asshats a national voice ... thanks

New respect for NO mayor Nagin

Check out this video at the Political Teen. Mayor Nagin took it like a man, and accepted his part in reponsibility for failures in the response to Katrina. I now have a refreshed sense of respect for the man that he can stand up and admit when things went wrong. It's definitely a step in the right direction. When will Blanco admit her part?

Paul is on a roll

Paul over at WizBang! has been on a roll lately. First, there is this post where Paul attempts to illuminate that personal responsibility should take a priority over reliance on the government. Then there is this news flash where Paul points out the obvious fact that white people were affected by Katrina. Duh!
