3-23-2010 The Weekly Claw

Today, The Crawfish starts posting his columns on yet another outlet. Swing on by my page at Paul Revere’s Riders. Here’s the link: http://paul-reveres-riders.ning.com/profile/TheCrawfish  


If any of you had any thoughts that Ah-nahld the Barbarian was a real Republican, this should clear those outta the way. He recently signed California Assembly Bill AB 962, which forbids interstate sales and purchases of ammunition, including internet sales. One of The Crawfish’s fellow bloggers, Brian Baker of Saugus, California, found that this is a completely unConstitutional law, so he went to the California Rifle and Pistol Association, which is basically the NRA’s California branch office, and they told him to start a petition. Huh? Well, Brian told them to pack sand since they couldn’t find their adult pants, and he filed the federal lawsuit himself. Read more about it, including the actual language of his lawsuit, in this post from his blog. I’ll keep y’all up to date on this as Brian updates me.
Compare those actions with this statement from a REAL Governor: “Unfortunately, the health care vote had more to do with expanding socialism on American soil than it does fixing our health care finance and delivery systems. The Obama health care bill undermines patient choice, personal responsibility, medical innovation and fiscal responsibility in America. As passed by the U.S. House, the bill will cost Texas taxpayers billions more, and drive our nation much deeper into debt. Congress's backroom deals and parliamentary maneuvers undermined the public trust and increased cynicism in our political process. Texas leaders will continue to do everything in our power to fight this federal excess and find ways to protect our families, taxpayers and medical providers from this gross federal overreach.”
Here is yet another blatant example of why the civilian court system should never have a single word to say regarding the terrorists and illegal combatants that we hold in Gitmo. A Clinton-appointed judge has ordered the immediate release of one of the Al Qaeda schmucks who recruited 9-11 cell leader Mohammed Atta. Why would a judge do that? He’s doing it because the illegal combatant was mistreated while in custody. Sorry, idiot, but the Geneva Conventions give exactly no protections to illegal combatants, and neither does our Constitution. As soon as we drained him of his information, we should have executed him.


RJ of Paul Revere’s Riders sent along a number of items since my last column that are definitely Claw-worthy. First comes confirmation that Bart Stupak (D-Meeeechigan) is indeed a prostitute. Within 12 hours of his caving in for Obamacare, Stupak received $726,409.00 for equipment at three airports in his district. He also received an Executive Order from The Chosen One that prohibits public funding for abortions, but as we all know, such an Executive Order is less than useless. It expires when Obama leaves office, and that will probably be before Obamacare actually does anything except raise taxes (remember that none of the programs in the bill get started until 2014), and Executive Orders are meaningless if the law says something different, and the Senate Obamacare bill requires abortion coverage in plans that people get federal grants to purchase. Of course, Stupak was lying all along when he said that he would vote against Obamacare unless he got provisions added that preclude taxpayer funding for abortion. As this video shows, that provision never was a deal maker/breaker for him. He was going to vote for the bill no matter what.


Wait a sec...back up to the airport deal. Didn’t Queen of the House Red Nanny P-Lousy say in her victory speech, “No money changed hands, of course”?????? Can she actually go 15 minutes without lying?


RJ also got a message from Obama after the vote. Only read it if you wanna spew.


When Stoooopid....er, Stupak gave his sell-out speech on the House floor, someone shouted out “BABY KILLER”, which was nothing but an accurate statement. The socialists in Congress and the media went nuts trying to tar and feather the person who made that call, and Monday they found out who it was, as Randy Neugebauer (R-LUBBOCK, TX) proudly admitted that it was him. God Bless TEXAS! (hat tip to Poll Katz e-mailer “Ginny”)


Some Socialist Congresscritters claimed that there was spitting and racist remarks spewed forth by the Tea Party protesters at the Crapitol over the weekend. The Capitol Police reported none of it and made no arrests. This set of videos also seems to prove the Socialists to be liars, as per usual.


That doesn’t stop a race-baiting columnist from the city that gave us Jeremiah Wright, Calypso Louie Farrakhan, and Obama from calling opposition to Obamacare and Obama in general RAAAAAAAACIST! Here’s a hint, ditz. I don’t care what race he is. I care that he is an anti-Constitutionalist, a socialist, a supporter of America’s enemies, and a liar.


One of the immediate results of the passage of Obamacare is that the United States government is being warned that our AAA bond rating is said by Moody’s to be in serious danger. Congrats to Queen of the House Red Nanny P-Lousy, Dingy Harry Reid, and Bu’raq al Obama. Your dreams of the destruction of our Constitution and our nation are being realized.


If you want some more of Red Nanny’s mindset regarding Obamacare and socialism, just check this column by Ed Kaitz of The American Thinker. Nanny wants us to not have to worry about real jobs, but rather just do whatever we want to do. The State Will Provide!


A number of folks sent this information to me. March 22nd is the 245th anniversary of another piece of legislation that was forced upon the American people, and was one of the sparks that led to the Revolutionary War. On that date in 1765, the Stamp Act was passed.


Most people completely missed another bit of socialism within the Obamacare bill. The federal government will now have a complete monopoly on the student loan business. What part of our nation is safe from the socialists?


Evidently, none of it. The Not-so-reverend Al “Tawana Brawley” Sharpton admitted that America voted overwhelmingly for socialism when they voted for Bu’raq al Obama.


Thanks to Claw contributor Al Zelent for sending along this You Tube link of a nine minute long memorial film. In the Battle of Midway, Torpedo Squadron 8, assigned to the carrier USS Hornet, sent 15 Devastator torpedo planes against the Japanese fleet. Each aircraft had an officer pilot and an enlisted gunner. All 15 were shot down, with only Ensign George Gay surviving. The Hornet’s captain had photos and film shot of all the flight operations and aircrew on his ship, and these films were given to legendary Hollywood director John Ford for his movie about the battle. Ford and the Navy also made this shot memorial film for the families of Torpedo 8. Only 30 copies were made, and it wasn’t until recently that the general public has been allowed to see them. The men of Torpedo 8 and their sacrifice on June 4, 1942, need to be remembered and honored by all Americans.


If y’all come across any weird/stoooopid/strange news stories that might be fodder for The Weekly Claw or The Weekend Claw, e-mail them to me at CrawfishsClaw@yahoo.com and I’ll consider ‘em. Yes, I will give you newshounds credit.

If the first be destroyed, the last must be substituted; and where this becomes the ordinary instrument of government there is an end to liberty!" - Alexander Hamilton (quote courtesy of fellow blogger “Saltwater”)
