4-25-2012 The Weekly Claw

The Crawfish had a much less than optimal experience with National Tire and Battery this past week. Let’s just say that a 5-hour job was accomplished in 96 hours, and I had to pay over $135 to rent a Chevy Aveo in order to get stuff done on Sunday and to go to work on Monday and Tuesday. On top of that, I am not sure that the work was properly performed. Grrrrr!

A) Here is a CLEAR case of a race-based violent attack. This man was beaten by a mob at his own home, and as of Tuesday evening was clinging to life in an Alabama hospital. Where is Jesse-be-the-Jackson? Where is the not-so-reverend Al? Where is the federal investigation by Eric Holder’s Injustice Department? Where are the immediate pronouncements by Barack Hussein Obama? Oh, that’s right. The victim is white and the 20 or so attackers were all black. That means this case is a complete non-issue, especially since the perps left the scene with the words “Now that’s justice for Trayvon!” So who are the real racists?

 B) Speaking of the Injustice Department, the FBI has now stopped sharing intelligence with state and local law enforcement around the country, especially in regards to terrorism suspects. Isn’t this kinda like the rules Jamie Gorelick put in place under Bill Clinton that led to 9-11, which she partially blamed on the intelligence community following the rules she put in place? The FBI has also implemented their politically correct and C.A.I.R.-approved anti-terrorism training, which takes all reference to muslims and Islam out of the syllabus, despite 99% of all terrorism around the world in the past 30 years being committed by Islamic terrorists. So…which side is the Obama Administration on?

C) The answer to that question can easily be found in this little video in which one of Barack Obama’s advisors advocated the destruction of Israel. Samantha Powers is the wife of Cass Sunstein, who is also an Obama Administration official and former law professor at Chicago Law and Harvard Law.

D) Now that Islamists are taking control of Egypt, Libya, Tunisia, and are trying to take over Syria, that means that it is time to declare that the War on Terror is over, according to the Obama Administration. Does this mean that we are surrendering?

 E) Back in 1976, the Canadian rock band Rush put out an album named “2112”. The first side of the album was inspired by Ayn Rand. Did Neil Peart see the Democrat Party of the 21st century as he wrote the lyrics?

F) The Democrats, led by Red Nanny P-Lousy, are not even trying to hide their hatred of the Constitution anymore. They are trying to rewrite the First Amendment to limit political speech of corporations. I’m guessing that their draft copy exempts unions.

G) Okay, this one is a couple of months old, but was just sent to me by Poll Katz member “Ginny”. It is a very good commentary by a black writer on why he dislikes and condemns King Barack I and Queen micHELLe. I give it a hearty two claws up.

H) The Crawfish is glad that he is not employed at Lockheed anymore. At that job, I was FORCED to either join the union or pay dues equivalents to keep my job, since the plant is on federal property. Yes, that is completely unconstitutional, but it is federal labor law. Anyway, on Sunday 90% of the union morons voted to go on strike. They are paid much more than the average worker in this region and pay less out-of-pocket for their healthcare. The company proposal would have increased the healthcare costs to what is normal around Fort Worth. It would also have put new hires into 401(k) plans for their retirements instead of pension plans. Again this is normal for almost every company in the South and West, and is becoming the norm nationwide. These two portions of the contract were deemed unacceptable by the Obama worshipping union leadership, so they convinced the workers that they were getting screwed. Meanwhile, Congress and foreign governments are telling Lockheed that they must reduce the costs of the F-35 or the program will face big cutbacks. In other words, if costs keep rising, the union jobs will be lost, but the union is demanding that costs continue to rise.

I) This is your hysterically funny headline of the week. “Ron Paul Wins Washington, On Track to be Nominated at 2012 GOP Convention”! First of all, the Washington STATE convention isn’t until next month. Next, on that day where Paul possibly picked up 11 delegates, Mitt Romney won over 200. Romney will have the nomination sewn up in the next 3 weeks, and the Paulbots will start screaming foul and pledging to vote for Paul in November anyway, meaning that they want Barack Obama to win.

 J) Americans still blame “big oil” and the eeeevillll “speculators”, if you believe the mainstream media and the Democratic Party (sorry for the repeat). People who actually use their brains know otherwise, and now there is a video that shows how the EPA attacked the fossil fuels industry as part of their agenda. Let’s see how the Administration tries to spin this one.

K) One of the few things that Congress is actually REQUIRED to do under the Constitution is to produce an annual budget for the government. The Senate, under the esteemed leadership of Harry Reid, has not produced a budget since before Barack Obama became President. Heck, nowadays the Democrats on the Senate Budget Committee aren’t even attending the meetings, and Reid has flat-out stated that he will not consider any budget before the election.

 "To take from one, because it is thought his own industry and that of his fathers has acquired too much, in order to spare to others, who, or whose fathers, have not exercised equal industry and skill, is to violate arbitrarily the first principle of association, the guarantee to everyone the free exercise of his industry and the fruits acquired by it." --Thomas Jefferson

4-19-2012 The Weekly Claw

Okay, so I’m a day late in posting this column. At least I’m still within this week.

A) "If you don't have any fresh ideas, then you use stale tactics to scare the voters. If you don't have a record to run on, then you paint your opponent as someone people should run from." It seems that someone named Barry uttered those words four years ago. Now it looks like the blueprint for the Obama and Romney campaigns.

B) I really want to see this story go national, so I can watch Democrats around the country try to explain why their party wants teachers to have sex with students. Can you imagine Gaffes Biden or Bill Clinton trying to give a defense of this action?

C) My wonderful little troll, who’s comments rarely pass muster ‘round these parts, said that I had grabbed my ankles with McCain last time and was going to do so for Romney this time. Obviously, this disturbed Ron Paul worshipper doesn’t know anything about me, or any other members of the St. Crispin’s Day Society that was formed by Brian R during the 2008 campaign. Here’s a hint, Paulbot. I voted for Chuck Baldwin of the Constitution Party last time. I will probably vote for the Constitution Party again this time. I encourage conservatives who are in states where the outcome is not going to be close (whether it be because Romney will win the state easily or because the state is so far left that it will vote for Obama even if he admits being a foreign-born muslim on live TV) to vote for a Constitution Party or Libertarian Party candidate instead of Romney to TRY to send the message to the GOP establishment that we don’t want their leftist candidates. If the state is a tight race, vote for Romney as he will be the only chance of reversing the headlong dash to end our nation.

D) Did you know that Barack Obama is Jesus Christ? We’ve known for a long time that the media believes so, and now micHELLe has proclaimed him as such using Biblical terms. Actually, the Biblical warnings against false prophets and false gods are a bit more appropriate.

E) Since we are so deep in debt, you would think that the government would be cutting back on expenditures overseas that don’t help our nation or reflect our national values. Of course you’d be wrong since King Barack I is on the throne. He’s bizzy bizzy bizzy sending millions of OUR dollars to prop up his socialist cousin in Kenya! Did Congress authorize that? All spending bills must, according to the Constitution, originate in the House, and I don’t think those expenditures would pass muster there.

F) Our good friend Gunny G has a wonderful little post regarding Utah and the fight for states’ rights and sovereignty. The federal government has been taking land from the western states for a while in complete violation of the Constitution, but nobody has done anything about it…until now. Bravo to Utah!

G) Here’s s gem for y’all. Tax Cheat Timmy was on “Face the Nation”, where he said that Romney was lying when he stated that over 90% of jobs lost during the reign of Obama have been women’s jobs. When questioned deeper, Tax Cheat Timmy could not refute the numbers and then tried to deflect the line of questioning with: “It's a meaningless way to look at the basic contours of the economy in that period of time, again because it starts artificially at a time when the President came into office and the crisis was still building momentum.” So when are the media types gonna notice that the recession started when the policies of the Pelosi House and Reid Senate started having their effects show up?

H) If Sheila Jackson-Lee unveils a program, you know that it is a complete waste of tax dollars and is probably not Constitutional. Her latest program is to put FEDERAL agents from the TSA on buses in Houston to combat terrorism. Excuse me? Why do we need FEDERAL agents maintaining order on LOCAL buses? There is no interstate business on these buses, so there is absolutely ZERO federal jurisdiction. Don’t they have some real bad guys to go after instead of local gang-wannabes?

I) Okay, so where is the media, the bounties, the threats of race wars, a federal investigation, the pronouncements from the President, Jesse-Be-The-Shakedown-Artist-Jackson, the not-so-reverend Al, and the national outrage over this shooting in which the shooter has been identified, but not arrested, and is of a different race than the dead victim? Oh, my bad. The SHOOTER is black. Never mind. Move along. Nothing to see here. These are not the droids you are looking for.

J) Speaking of the not-so-reverend Al, how many of y’all would not be in prison if the name in this story was yours instead of Al’s? I’m guessing that unpaid debt of almost a million dollars dating back 8 years and another $800K+ in federal income taxes also dating back a number of years would normally qualify one for an all-expenses-paid trip to the Graybar Hotel, but since this is Al “Tawana Brawley” Shapton and the current Administration doesn’t prosecute black folk, he can slide until Obama pardons him.

K) Labor Suckratary Solis made an appearance at Al’s latest conference, and boy did she tell a whopper! She said that the American dream is to pay higher taxes for more government services. That might be the dream for the average Obama voter, but REAL Americans want the government to be restrained within its Constitutional limits.

L) Here is something the left REALLY doesn’t want y’all to notice. It seems that the USA is actually one of the LEAST racist nations on the planet. Can’t let the folks realize that bit of truth, can we?

M) Some of the real law professors at Chicago Law are now speaking out about Lord Barry’s tenure at the school. The stories they’re telling are a bit less than flattering for Barry.

N) For those who STILL want to blame Bush for all of our economic woes, y’all might want to take a gander at this here link because it contains some truth for you to swallow. CHOKE ON IT!

"To take from one, because it is thought his own industry and that of his fathers has acquired too much, in order to spare to others, who, or whose fathers, have not exercised equal industry and skill, is to violate arbitrarily the first principle of association, the guarantee to everyone the free exercise of his industry and the fruits acquired by it." --Thomas Jefferson

4-11-2012 The Weekly Claw

Damn. Since Rick Santorum has dropped out of the race, this November’s election will be between a far-left liberal and Barack Obama.

A) It looks like the Obamas used the old Clinton tactics against Hillary 4 years ago, but with even more muscle. The Chicago mafia is a wee bit better than the Arkansas mafia at that kinda stuff.

B) “Payrolls rose far less than expected in March...” Where have we heard this before? I believe that we have heard this almost every single month since Barack Obama took office. His people keep coming out with these extremely rosy predictions regarding the economy in order to appear competent to their supporters and the uneducated folks who believe what they read in the lamestream media, but that damned reality keeps happening.

C) A former national security staffer for the Obama Administration WANTS to testify before Congress regarding Operation Fast and Furious, but for some reason the White House believes that they can prevent him from testifying. If he is no longer on their staff, they have no legal authority to prevent it.

D) His Eminence Cardinal Raymond Leo Burke, who happens to be the Prefect of the Supreme Tribunal of the Apostolic Signatura (the highest judicial authority in the Catholic Church besides the Pope himself), is the former Archbishop of Saint Louis. He also says that any Catholic employer who complies with the birth control mandates of Obamacare is participating in sin. “It is not only a matter of what we call “material cooperation” in the sense that the employer by giving this insurance benefit is materially providing for the contraception but it is also “formal cooperation” because he is knowingly and deliberately doing this, making this available to people. There is no way to justify it. It is simply wrong.” Cardinal Burke has made many pronouncements regarding the Democratic Party, President Obama, and politicians who actively support abortion. Now if he could only get the Pope to not only publicly agree but take the proper actions…

E) A Democrat Congresscritter takes out a loan from Bank of America and defaults on it. So why exactly should the American taxpayers pay off the loan? I don’t give a damn about any Small Business Administration guarantee. GARNISH HIS CONGRESSIONAL PAY!

F) Since the victim of this attack was a white tourist and the TEN assailants are black, it has been declared to NOT be a hate crime by the police chief. If that one wasn’t enough, how about this one? Reverse the races and there would be almost as much black outrage as in the Martin-Zimmerman case, which has seen the pressure on the state from all of the racist organizations in America (including Holder’s Department of Injustice and President Obama) cause the state to now file second-degree murder charges against Zimmerman when the local prosecutors said that there wasn’t enough evidence for ANY kind of criminal charges. When Zimmerman is found Not Guilty (which will happen if he gets a truly impartial jury) the race riots all around the country will make the Rodney King riots look positively passive, since those people are already looking for any excuse to riot. Then again, the Obama Administration would welcome such riots as political ammunition and possible “Reichstag Fire” moments.

G) Known allies of Eric Holder and Barack Obama, the New Black Panther Party, are already agitating for an all-out race war. Between that and their bounty on Zimmerman, they have committed multiple felonies, but Eric Holder once again refuses to take any action. The Zimmerman family is calling Holder out because they know why he refuses to take any action. The NBPP is a radical BLACK organization, and Eric Holder has repeatedly stated that he will never prosecute blacks for “hate crimes” of any type.

H) Speaking of Holder, a white man recently walked into Holder’s precinct on voting day and WITHOUT ANY IDENTIFICATION was given Holder’s voting ballot. This proves without any shadow of doubt that voter ID laws are very much necessary in the US. Holder’s people responded by saying that this was a case of “manufactured” voter fraud, and was therefore not to be taken seriously. Well DUH! ALL voter fraud is “manufactured”, and the Democrats have been manufacturing it for decades, as evidenced here with non-drybacks voting in Florida. Heck, Chicago has become almost synonymous with voter fraud, and that is 100% Democrat-controlled!

I) One of the anti-American groups headed up by Obama’s former “Green Czar” is pledging an “Arab Spring” type revolt here in the USA this year. They want to put the radicals completely in charge, even more than the past 3 years. If you don’t believe that this is being indirectly run by Obama and his people, you have not been paying attention. The radicals from the “Arab Spring”, yes including officials from the Islamic terrorist/conquest organization called the Muslim Brotherhood, are now coming to DC to meet with officials of the Obama Administration and Democrat members of the House and Senate.

J) Recently the Democrats have been saying that the housing crisis was made much worse because the Bush Administration completely ignored the situation. Well, the proof is in the pudding, as this release from October 2008 clearly shows. Can you say Community Reinvestment Act and liberal fraud at Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac?

K) We will finish this week’s insanity with this story from California. This is the kind of stoooopidity that happens when liberals are allowed to run things unchecked by anybody with common sense or real world knowledge. Folks, I can’t make this crap up!

"To take from one, because it is thought his own industry and that of his fathers has acquired too much, in order to spare to others, who, or whose fathers, have not exercised equal industry and skill, is to violate arbitrarily the first principle of association, the guarantee to everyone the free exercise of his industry and the fruits acquired by it." --Thomas Jefferson

4-4-2012 The Weekly Claw

None of the serious weather came close to Casa Crustacean, nor my workplace. We are thankful that none of our family and friends have reported injuries or damage. We also thank God that there have been no reported fatalities from yesterday’s storms. Unfortunately for my readers, other events around here have caused me to be quite tired and have a lack of material for this week. You’ll get over it.

A) There is a reason why the GOP gets saddled with liberal “establishment” nominees every four years. Notice how many liberal states are stacked early in the primary season. Almost every state that Mitt Romney has won is a state that voted for Barack Obama in 2008. If the RED states dominated the first half of the primaries, Mitt Romney would have been eliminated long ago.

B) “Ultimately, I am confident that the Supreme Court will not take what would be an unprecedented, extraordinary step of overturning a law that was passed by a strong majority of a democratically elected Congress.” That drivel came from the oral sewer of our wanna-be dictator, the supposed Constitutional law expert, Barack Hussein Soetoro Obama. First of all, the Supreme Court is SUPPOSED to overturn laws that are anti-Constitutional, and they do it all the time, so it would hardly be unprecedented. Secondly, it was not passed by any strong majority. It was passed by the slimmest of margins, and even then only after bribes had been handed out to a number of Democrat House members. He went on to say that overturning such a ruling would be “judicial activism”: “And I'd just remind conservative commentators that, for years, what we have heard is, the biggest problem on the bench was judicial activism, or a lack of judicial restraint, that an unelected group of people would somehow overturn a duly constituted and passed law, Well, this is a good example, and I'm pretty confident that this court will recognize that and not take that step.” Sorry, moron, but “judicial activism” is when the courts make new law or allow anti-Constitutional law to stand. If this Court overturns Obamacare, they are doing their Constitutional duty. Since Marbury v. Madison is one of the first case studies in any Constitutional Law class, and that case established the concept of “judicial review”, we now have proof that Barack Obama never really took any such classes.

C) His Majesty’s staff must have realized that He had stepped in it, since he tried to re-nuance his remarks and make them a bit more palatable while still telling SCOTUS that it is their job to rubber stamp his anti-Constitutional achievement.

D) A 3-judge panel from the 5th Circuit also took note of King Barack’s pronouncements regarding the judiciary. They are hearing another case regarding Obamacare, but not part of the current SCOTUS case. The panel ordered the Justice Department to produce a 3-page, single-spaced response to Obama’s edicts to be turned in to them by noon on Thursday. Judge Jerry Smith had the following quotes from the hearing: “Does the Department of Justice recognize that federal courts have the authority in appropriate circumstances to strike federal statutes because of one or more constitutional infirmities?” and “referring to statements by the president in the past few days to the effect ... that it is somehow inappropriate for what he termed unelected judges to strike acts of Congress. That has troubled a number of people who have read it as somehow a challenge to the federal courts or to their authority. And that's not a small matter.” Obama has repeatedly thrown down the gauntlet, and it appears that some of the judiciary has now had enough of his disrespect.

E) So what has the longtime spiritual adviser to the Obama family been up to these days? He has been continuing his anti-semetic ways that he was famous for while the Obama family sat on the front row for 20 years. Does anybody really believe that Barry privately disagrees with anything Reverend Wrong does? If he has any repudiating response, it will be for the media and dope-and-changers who will believe anything he says, but if he thought he could get away with it he would join Reverend Wrong in his endorsement.

F) Here’s what one of his major political influences has been up to. Admitted-terrorist Bill Ayers says he gets up every morning thinking “today I'm gonna make a difference. Today I'm gonna end capitalism. Today I'm gonna make a revolution. I go to bed every night disappointed, but I'm back again tomorrow. That's the only way you can do it.”

G) As if any of my readers need this refresher, Barack Obama came out and repeated his ruling philosophy. According to him, GOVERNMENT is what has made our nation great. The fact that the American media didn’t immediately turn him into a laughingstock just shows how they are on his side.

"To take from one, because it is thought his own industry and that of his fathers has acquired too much, in order to spare to others, who, or whose fathers, have not exercised equal industry and skill, is to violate arbitrarily the first principle of association, the guarantee to everyone the free exercise of his industry and the fruits acquired by it." --Thomas Jefferson

3-28-2012 The Weekly Claw

Y’all can take this past week and have it. Besides all of the bovine fecal matter involved with the Zimmerman-Martin affair, I was forced to miss work on Monday and shell out over $11K for a new air conditioner unit after the previous one almost burned the house down. I need some Rahr & Son’s Iron Thistle, but the shelves are almost bare of this great seasonal brew. At least all of the reports have the Solicitor General getting his arse handed to him in the SCOTUS Obamacare proceedings.

A) Let’s start with the Fool of the Week Award, and in a big surprise it goes to Barack Obama’s imitation of Ron Paul. Obama says the US needs to be the world leader in nuclear disarmament. As long as the technology is available, there will be nuclear weaponry. Why would we disarm ourselves when we know good and well that the Chinese, Russians, Pakistanis, Indians, Iranians, and North Koreans would never do so? The only thing Barack Obama wants the US to be the world leader in is baring our throats to our enemies.

B) Speaking of baring our throats to our enemies, Barack Obama has signaled to the Soviet Unio…er, Vlad the Impa…, his good buddy Vladimir that if he manages to win re-election, he will be more than happy to negotiate away our missile defense systems in Europe and elsewhere. The man is nothing short of a traitor. At least there are some in Congress and other areas that are already putting their opposition on record and calling Obama out on this issue.

C) The Zimmerman-Martin affair has taken many turns over the past week. Despite all of the hoodie-wearing protests around the country (egged on by the left wing media), mostly blacks, college students, and college professionals who know nothing of the facts but want justice based on perceived racism, the facts of the incident are emerging and they show the sweet, innocent, young Trayvon Martin to be the attacker, which is why George Zimmerman was not arrested. This has not stopped such illegal activity by liberals such as noted racist liberal Spike Lee repeatedly Tweeting George Zimmerman’s home address out so his followers could harass the victim, protesters using this as an excuse to ransack a Walgreen’s Drug Store (par for the course with race-based protesters), and the New Black Panther Party putting up “wanted dead or alive” posters and a $10,000 bounty on the kidnapping of Zimmerman.

D) With the New Black Panther Party committing multiple felonies with their posters and bounty, including inciting violence and suborning kidnapping across state lines, you would think that there would be a federal investigation and arrests of much of the NBPP leadership. Then again, we have the Affirmative Action Attorney General, who has stated that he will never prosecute black perps if their victims are not black and who quashed the case against the NBPP for their blatant voter intimidation during the Obalection of 2008, running his Injustice Department. So much for any justice against these people, who now KNOW they are above the law.

E) Since Jesse Be The Jackson and the Not-So-Reverend Al immediately got involved, screaming RACISM all the way, you have to know that there was not a bit of racism involved and that the story they were spinning was a LONG way from the truth. Duke Lacrosse? Tawana Brawley? Jena Six? What is in it for these two race-hucksters and shakedown artists?

F) Even President Obama came out with race-baiting comments against Zimmerman before he knew any of the facts, just like he did when a white cop arrested a black man seen breaking into a house at Harvard a couple of years ago.

G) To wrap up this part of the column, we have to ask why this case of a black man getting shot in an altercation in which he was probably the aggressor has gotten so much publicity and attention, most of it in the form of lies about racism, when another case from five years ago that included a lot of REAL racism, horrific torture, and brutal murders of two victims received almost no attention, no mass protests, and no public bounties on the killers.

H) Every once in a while, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution engages in random acts of real journalism. In 2008 and 2009, they reported on improbable results in test scores in the Atlanta Public Schools, which resulted in a major investigation that uncovered over 180 principles, teachers, and other staffers tampering with the testing to improve the scores. The newspaper has done another series of investigations into public school testing around the nation, and there seem to be a lot of school districts engaging in possible cheating and/or tampering. Some of the districts highlighted are in North Texas, but the teachers unions and district superintendants say that they won’t do any investigations. The Texas Education Agency spokesperson even gave this comment (can you spot the big error in this statement from someone involved in EDUCATION?): “Although there may be 50 students in year one and 50 students in year one, there is no reason to believe these are the same students.”

I) Here is your Laughingly Idiotic Statement by a Liberal of the Week. Put your beverage down and swallow before opening the link. You have been warned.

J) Just when you thought the liberals running our public schools couldn’t get any more brazen in their liberal indoctrination tactics, we get a Virginia teacher assigning his students to do opposition research on GOP Presidential candidates to be sent to the DNC. Folks, I can’t make this stuff up!

K) I haven’t watched the whole video, so I don’t know if these “65 most outrageous lies by President Obama” are from just this week, this month, this year, or how long. Considering his long-recorded lack of truthfulness, I wouldn’t be surprised if they weren’t all from the past 3 months.

L) While the sane members of Congress are searching high and low for ways to reduce spending, King Barack has decided to spend $770,000,000 to fight non-existent man-made Glo-Bill Warming in developing countries. I wonder what campaign donor will be getting that money to spend fighting a myth, only to have his “company” go bankrupt next year after spending the money on salaries and benefits only. Where did he get authorization for that expenditure?

M) While we are on the subject of Barack Obama wasting our money, we have the story of the Apologist In Chief giving out tens of thousands of dollars to pay for the deaths of the Afghans killed by the head case Staff Sergeant. Has Afghanistan paid for the murders of Americans by members of the Afghan military or by terrorists based in Afghanistan? Did Congress authorize this spending? The anti-American occupying the White House needs to be kicked out of his residence!

N) Finally there is a judge who has the intestinal fortitude to rule against the envirowacko socialists of the EPA. In a case involving mountaintop mining in West By God Virginia, the Army Corps of Engineers granted the permit including water pollution, but the EPA tried to void the permit. The judge told the EPA to pack sand.

O) The Crawfish encourages all of his readers to check out this website and sign their petition, even though his wife loves the place.

3-21-2012 The Weekly Claw

It is looking more and more like the GOP establishment is going to coronate Mittens as the GOP nominee. Almost all of the W Administration has endorsed him, as has Juan McLame and Bob Dole (yes, he is still alive). The only reason Romney has been winning the primaries so far has been his exorbitant spending and the outrageous spending of his superPACs. The establishment wants a liberal to run against a super-liberal, just like in 76, 88, 92, 96, 2000, 04, and 08.

A) The Army Staff Sergeant who went on the killing spree in Afghanistan should not have been there. He had already been wounded twice in combat (traumatic head injury and partial loss of a foot), had been deployed three times before, and was told he wasn’t going on this deployment. The more that is uncovered about him shows that he has been a mental wreck for some time, and probably should have been dismissed from the service because of his issues. The most telling part of this story is found in the final paragraph of the linked article. “The base's medical center is being investigated for allegedly down-grading post traumatic stress diagnoses to other mental illnesses that do not prevent deployment or qualify soldiers for disability payments.” Yes, folks. This is the kind of health care that Barack Obama wants to give to all Americans.

B) Now who do you think once said that we need to “really BRAINWASH (emphasis mine) people into thinking about guns in a vastly different way”? Well, that would be the Affirmative Action Attorney General, who was then a US Attorney on his way to becoming Deputy Attorney General in the Clinton Administration. He went on to say: “What we need to do is change the way in which people think about guns, especially young people, and make it something that's not cool, that it's not acceptable, it's not hip to carry a gun anymore, in the way in which we changed our attitudes about cigarettes.”

C) Poll Katz e-mailer REC48 sent along this link for all of y’all to bookmark. Lots of good arrows for your anti-liberal quivers.

D) Proving that some people are just simply idiots, we have this story from North Texas.

E) No wonder the Administration went after Rush Limbaugh so fiercely when he countered the preposterous “free contraception is the biggest need for women’s health” line of propaganda from the Democrats. They knew that Rush was about to start unleashing the truth against everything they have been saying for the past few weeks, and everything they will say before the election. They knew that Rush has the ability to make ordinary Americans see the contradictions between the words of Obama and reality. When people are presented with the truth, Obama really does look silly.

F) If somebody has the time, please look up the House and Senate votes for this new law and send me the links. I want to see exactly what members of Congress oppose free speech in America.

G) A real conservative leader who is running for the Senate seat being vacated by RINO Kay Bailey Hutchison has put up his own version of the March Madness brackets for folks to fill out. This one has absolutely nothing to do with basketball, and everything to do with our failed President. Kudos to the Tom Leppert for US Senate campaign.

H) An Obama supporter issued a bunch of death threats against a public official who supports the Constitution and law & order. I don’t expect to see this story anywhere on MSNBC, See-BS, ABC, Noo Yawk Slimes, WaPo, etc.

I) So, how’s that new civility working out for the Obama campaign? I think it is working out about as well as Obama’s energy and oil policies, don’t you?

J) Speaking of civility, how do y’all like how the Grand Mufti of Saudi Arabia, who is the closest thing to the Pope that Islam has, called for the destruction of all churches in the Middle East? There has been exactly zero international media outrage over this, but what would happen if the Pope called for the destruction of all the mosques in Italy?

K) Sometimes I wonder why I don’t read more from Roger Hedgecock. When I was in a Navy avionics school in San Diego for a few months in 2003, I listened to his show almost every day. He is a former mayor of that city, and a solid conservative. If you are wondering what would happen to the USA if Obama were to be re-elected and Red Nanny P-Lousy were to regain her gavel, the former mayor is already living in that nightmare.

L) Another former California gummint official has written this comparison between his home state and the state he now calls home. More and more people are realizing what a trash heap California has become.

M) Representative Darryl Issa is still trying to hold the feet of this Administration to the fire. He is accusing Homeland Security Ditz Napolitano of using false information regarding illegal immigration in her Congressional testimony. Of course she has been lying. It is the standard practice of everyone associated with Barrack Hussein Soetero.

N) When the Obama campaign put out a seventeen minute campaign video narrated by Tom Hanks, we knew it would have a number of “errors”, but now it seems that His Majesty has gone so far as to lie about his own mother. The lies are getting so think that even the Washington Post is obliged to notice them. Hat tip goes to our old friend TampaDoc.

O) Barry even lied about one of his predecessors, and this one wasn’t named George W. Bush!

P) One of the darlings of the left has just hacked off the leftists. Red Nanny P-Lousy’s daughter Alexandra showed a video on Bill Maher’s show that showed her interviewing welfare leeches in Noo Yawk City. Their attitudes will make you want to reach through the screen to choke them. Miss Pelosi admitted that it was hard to get the video on the air, but of course she didn’t try Fox News.

Q) What would happen if a conservative actor made a racist statement at a Presidential event? The reaction would definitely be a lot more severe than that being shown regarding the statements by Robert DeNiro. He proves once again that he is nothing more than a highly overpaid line reader with an otherwise empty brain housing group.

"To take from one, because it is thought his own industry and that of his fathers has acquired too much, in order to spare to others, who, or whose fathers, have not exercised equal industry and skill, is to violate arbitrarily the first principle of association, the guarantee to everyone the free exercise of his industry and the fruits acquired by it." --Thomas Jefferson

3-14-2012 The Weekly Claw

Okay, The Crawfish apologizes for not posting in the past month. There were many reasons for this, but let it suffice to say that part of it was that my Give A Damn was on the fritz.

A) If you want to keep up-to-date on the media talking points and lies of the Administration, I suggest that you look up “Truth Team” on Facebook or on the web. I get their e-mail updates, and their spin is quite laughable until you realize that it is exactly what will be reported as gospel truth by ABC, See-BS, NBC, MSNBC, CNN, and the rest.

B) Speaking of lies from the Democrats, here is some of the TRUTH about Sandra Fluke and the “free contraception is vital to women’s health” horse dung.

C) An American soldier walks out of his base in Afghanistan and guns down 16 Afghan civilians. The Obama Administration is “deeply concerned” and immediately offered apologies. Why aren’t they concerned when muslims commit mass murder on a regular basis? I’m surprised it has taken this long for one of our guys to snap like that. Meanwhile, the Religion of Perpetual Outrage is going bonkers over this and the desecrated Qurans that were desecrated by muslims before the Americans started to burn them. When they start apologizing for the massacres that muslims continually commit, I’ll consider giving a damn about their problems.

D) Meanwhile, Ron Paul still believes that the USA is the cause of Islamic terrorism, despite the reality of the Religion of Hate. Somebody really does need to give this link to him and all of his minions. Then, someone needs to force Paul and the rest of his military-hating followers to read this story about a couple of American Marines. Of course, the concepts of honor, courage, commitment, sacrifice, and bravery are lost on most Paulbots.

E) The Obama Administration is in the process of giving seven mineral-rich islands in the Aleutians to Vlad Putin and the Soviet Uni…er, Russia. Why has this story not gotten any headlines, and why haven’t our esteemed GOP leaders done anything about it? If this isn’t an impeachable offense, what is? It is time for this to become HEADLINE NEWS!

F) Back in November, Barack Obama signed an appropriations bill for Eric Holder’s Injustice Department. That bill contained language (put there by The Crawfish’s Senator, John Cornyn) that prohibited the feds from allowing a working gun to be transferred to anybody related to a drug cartel unless that gun was going to be tracked continuously. Fast forward to last month. His Majesty’s new budget proposal has language in it that would remove that prohibition and allow Holder and his boys to resume their operations in hope of using those arms to eventually overturn the 2nd Amendment.

G) To quote John McEnroe, “You cannot be serious!” The Obama Administrations budget proposal for the campaign year (wait…they have been in campaign year since 2007) is “WTF!”, which is what non-Marxists will say when they look at it.

H) Obama’s budget proposal also continues his war against American military families. He is proposing large hikes in out-of-pocket health care costs and massive hikes in the premiums for TRICARE, which is the health care insurance program for the military, families, and retirees. Any member of the military who supports Barack Obama is either a fool, a person like Samuel L. Jackson (who votes based on skin color instead of real issues), or both.

I) Tax Cheat Timmy admitted in testimony before Congress that Obama’s budget plan is “unsustainable”, and this is the second year in a row that he has said so. No wonder he says that he is going to be replaced next January no matter who wins the election.

J) In response to the “unsustainable” budgets of the Democrats, the GOP is putting up a plan that will balance the budget in five years. It is a start, but if these Senators and Representatives would sit down with Gunny G, Brain R, myself, and a few more of our cohorts, we could come up with a plan that would include a surplus within 3 years.

K) Here’s your green energy update. Electric cars cause more pollution than gasoline-powered cars. The study in this article was done in China, and focuses on the emissions associated with recharging the batteries. That is something that green car advocates keep forgetting to notice. Then there is the pollution associated with the manufacture and disposal of the batteries. That is some nasty stuff, and completely ruins the disposal sites. But take heart in this bit of news. Chevy has now announced that they are cancelling production of the taxpayer-subsidized Chevy Volt because of horrid sales and a complete lack of reliability.

L) The other heavily-taxpayer-subsidized “green” car isn’t faring much better than the Volt. Is there any other lemon out there that Obama can throw millions of OUR dollars at?

M) “The tea party has been much more effective than occupy. The people in tea party do a much better job of organizing to get their policy views made a part of this process than occupy people. The occupy people do more to make themselves feeling emotionally satisfied.” Can you believe that this quote came from Bawney Fwank?

N) The Democrats keep noting the support of a group called Catholics United whenever they discuss Obamacare’s contraception mandate. There is a reason Catholics United supports the Administration’s efforts and other activities by liberals that are clearly anti-Catholic or anti-Christian. The group is not a Catholic group at all, but rather is a George Soros-funded anti-Catholic front group. Yes, the Administration has lied again in their war against Christianity.
