9-15-2010 The Weekly Claw

A big Crawfish welcome to my new readers at RedWhiteBlueNews. Stand by for news, outrage, sarcasm, snarkiness, hilarity, political incorrectness, and skewering of the enemies of our nation and our Constitution. We try to deliver all of the above on a regular basis.

Over the weekend, we remembered the events of September 11, 2001. Dan Calabrese of North Star National has a solid suggestion for how we should have properly commemorated the day. And for those of you who haven’t been readers of mine for long, here’s what The Crawfish had to say three years ago about my memories of that day. Tina Trimble Belliston takes a look at what has happened in the succeeding 9 years, and she doesn’t like it very much. I like her style!

For the absolute knee-slapping funny quote of the week, we look to our esteemed Dear Leader who bleated ““I believe government should be lean; government should be efficient. I believe government should leave people free to make the choices they think are best for themselves and their families, so long as those choices don’t hurt others.” Does he actually expect us to believe that line of bovine excrement? Does he believe it himself? The story has another crazy point buried deep within. It seems that 15% of polled Americans believe that Obama wants a smaller government. How much crack and LSD have those 15% consumed in the past 19 months?

This really is getting ridiculous. We all thought that it was crazy to confirm a tax cheat as Treasury Secretary. Then Hilda Solis and her husband had to pay thousands in back taxes before she could get confirmed as Labor Secretary, and personnel from her department currently owe upwards of $7,400,000.00. Members of Homeland Security Ditz Napolitano’s department owe over $37,000,000.00 in back taxes. House and Senate staff members owe well over $9,000,000.00. Members of the Federal Reserve owe over a million. The Affirmative Action Attorney General’s Injustice Department folks owe $14,300,000.00+ in back taxes, but since they are the ones who enforce the laws, they don’t care what the laws actually say. The fish, though, does rot from the head, and 41 members of Barack Obama’s staff owe $831,055.00 in back taxes. You see, if we could reign in a bit of spending and manage to get Democrats to pay their damned taxes, we’d have a budget surplus!

“Now the U.N. remains the single most important global institution. We are constantly reminded of its value.” Those words came out of the mouth of Her Thighness this week. The Crawfish wonders what Hillary! sees as value in the Useless Nations. Could it be the propping up of dictators? Maybe it is the support of militant Islam. Possibly it is the constant America bashing. Then again, there is always the possibility that it is the anti-Israel stances of the UN, which mirror the desires of most of the Democratic Party. Meanwhile, over the Labor Day weekend, the UN Secretary General and 60 of his top minions met in Austria to go over their plans to take charge of the whole world’s agenda. The sooner we can get rid of that organization, the better.

The Crawfish wholeheartedly agrees with this family. Seventeen years is far too long for a murderer to sit on death row. At least they finally got closure. Maureen Faulkner’s police officer husband, Danny, was murdered by Black Panther Party activist Mumia Abu Jamal (real name: Wesley Cook) on December 9, 1981, and his case is STILL in the courts thanks to a federal judge who had no business interfering with the death sentence. If the crime was adjudicated in state courts, then why does the federal court system have any jurisdiction? They DON’T! For a state capital murder case, the penalty phase should start the day after the conviction phase. Once the sentence is pronounced, the state court of criminal appeals should have 180 days to hear and decide their phase of the case. If it goes to the state supremes, they should have 180 days to act. One year from the date that the sentence was pronounced, the sentence should be carried out.

Pennsylvania’s Governor, incidentally…the D.A. in the Mumia Abu Jamal case, is losing what’s left of his leftist mind. He says that “wackos” are taking over the Republican Party in Congress. So Ed Rendell’s definition of a “wacko” is someone who believes in the Constitutional limitations on the federal government. That’s nice.

Don’t you DARE criticize King Barack I or the Obamacare bill (have the Dems finally read that thing yet?), especially if you are an insurance company. And don’t even THINK about raising your rates to compensate for all of the extra costs incurred because of this bill. If you violate these commandments, HHS Secretary Sebelius will cut your company off from future customers and future programs under Obamacare! Where does this power freak get such authority? It sure as heck ain’t in the Constitution of the United States. The sooner we can get this and all of the other bills passed by Queen of the House Red Nanny P-Lousy and Prince Dingy Harry Reid revoked, the better.

Lemme see if I’ve got this right. The Administration of King Barack I opposes all efforts of energy companies to drill for oil in the US, and has tried to stop offshore drilling, but it gives over $1,000,000,000.00 to MEXICO for them to drill? Am I missing something here? Oh, maybe it is a “jobs program” for Americans who want to be illegal aliens in Mexico.

On a related issue, the Obama Administration is now BRAGGING that they have caught and released over 506,000 illegal aliens who are now fugitives within our borders. This is why you release them on the shores of El Salvador instead of within our country, ya morons. When are we going to put some adults in control of our government?

Now I get it! The Democrats in the House and Senate get their brilliant ideas after having dope smoking parties in their offices! “Munchie attacks cause 2,000 page bill in Congress. Film at eleven!”

The Congressional Racist Caucus is back in the news. It seems that Charlie Rangel and Eddie Bernice Johnson ain’t the only members to have serious ethics problems. Johnson was busted giving scholarship money, intended for blacks in her district, to her own family and the family of one of her staffers. Now Jawja congresscritter Sanford Bishop has been nailed doin’ the exact same thing. Of course, this is all to be blamed on Fox News, George W. Bush, and the eeeeevilll racist Republicans.

I’ve been sayin’ it for the past two years to anybody who would listen, but the only people who would agree with me were conservatives who actually pay attention to politics and economics. Now Thomas Sowell points out that the main cause of the economic downturn of 2008-2010 was the collapse of the credit market. The credit market was crunched by the problems of Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae, which were shielded in Congress by Chris “Countrywide” Dodd and Bawney Fwank, while notable liberals such as Jamie “I caused 9-11” Gorelick and Franklin Raines made millions (while falsifying the books to show Freddie and Fannie to be fiscally healthy, but that’s another story). The Community Reinvestment Act, another disastrous product of Jimmuh Cahtuh that was bolstered by Billy Jeff Clinton, helped immensely. Of course, all good liberals and the media, but I repeat myself, know that Jorge Boosh is to blame for all of it anyway.

The Incredibly Arrogant Imbecile is at it again. Our esteemed White House Press Secretary is doing his best to make ol’ Baghdad Bob look intelligent and truthful. I mean, does he really expect anybody who is actually paying attention to believe him when he says, “By virtually any measure, our economy is in a better place than it was two years ago”? That ranks right up there with “I did not have sexual relations with that woman…Miss Lewinsky.”

Do liberals really care about the American worker or American industry? Uh, no. In the name of “green”, they have cost hundreds of American jobs and forced dangerous, mercury-filled light bulbs into American homes. Did y’all know that if one of those bulbs breaks, it is recommended to bring a hazardous materials cleanup team in to clean up the mercury? If one of the bulbs dies, you can’t even toss it in the trash, since it is considered hazardous waste!

If the Obamites were so in favor of building the economy and small business, wouldn’t they have the support of the US Chamber of Commerce? Well, since the Chamber is vehemently opposing the socialists, The Crawfish is left to believe that the Unholy Troika of Obama-Reid-Pelosi might be bad for American businesses. Do y’all agree?

A Congressional race in South Carolina gives us a story worth pondering for a moment. Longtime Representative John Spratt has agreed to debate his Republican challenger, but he demanded that there be no cameras or audio recording devices in the auditorium. Might that be so that he can lie about whatever he says in the debate, like a typical liberal, and there will be no evidence?

The Affirmative Action Attorney General’s Injustice Department and the Feingold campaign in Wisconsin have teamed up to violate federal election law (nothing new for Holder’s bunch) and screw over American military personnel who are Wisconsin voters. Federal law requires military absentee ballots to be sent out 45 days ahead of an election in order to give the military personnel enough time to fill out their ballots and send them home in the military mail. The State of Wisconsin, knowing that military personnel are likely to support Russ Feingold’s opponent, reached a deal with Big Brother and the Holder Company to slash 2 weeks from that time, meaning many military voters will be “disenfranchised”.

The Followers of the Pedophilic False Prophet gave The Crawfish a good chuckle this week. Reacting to the possibility that a single copy of the Quran could be burned by a nutcase preacher looking for publicity, a major muslim group called for the Useless Nations “to issue an international law criminalizing all forms of offense against religions under any circumstances.” This coming from a religion that routinely burns or otherwise destroys Christian materials, imprisons or executes anyone who preached Christianity in muslim nations, and builds mosques upon the destroyed houses of worship of the locals whenever they score a major military victory. Heck, there were attacks on Christians trying to worship in Indonesia just this week! The muslims also have a tendency to violently riot whenever there is some outrage, real or just perceived, committed against Islam (like now or when a Danish newspaper published a CARTOON showing Muhammed with a bomb in his head diaper), and dance in the streets when innocent civilians are murdered by Islamic terrorists. For more on the Religion of Perpetual Outrage, check out this column by Michelle (***sigh***) Malkin. As per usual, it has lots of embedded links.

The Religion of Peace struck again in Filthadelphia on Friday. Wait…should it be the Religion of Pieces?

Somebody seems to have a rather highly inflated opinion of herself and her status among Americans. The Crawfish, along with probably 98% of the American public, didn’t even know they had split up…nor did I even care!

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.

“The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government, and shall protect each of them against Invasion; and on Application of the Legislature, or of the Executive (when the Legislature cannot be convened) against domestic violence.

  1. Watching Sir Golfsalot and Shelly Antoinette push their agenda is like watching "1984" and "Brave New World" come to life.
    Thankfully, more people are waking up.

    Last night Hannity had two women who were brought up in mid east. One actually knows the Koran word for word. They were very interesting and informative. They talked about CAIR and others who quote peaceful passages. What they said was that Mohammed tried to convince the Jews to go along with his new religion and to declare him as a prophet so he wrote nice, peaceful things. They said when the Jews and Christians wouldn't go along with him he wrote the later, violent passages. And those later, violent passages are what rule islamic law. When two passages contradict each other, the one that was written later is the law and cancels out the earlier writing. So when CAIR and others quote those sweet, peaceful verses, they are lying. (Which we all knew anyway)
    They said that muslims are not interested in becoming Americans. They are interested in taking over this country and making it all Sharia compliant.
    Right now, the audio is only available to insiders but I'm hoping Hannity will make it available to everyone soon.

  2. It's funny. Liberals protect radical Muslims who want to kill them, yet attack their fellow citizens who want to protect them through fiscal policies, a well guarded border, and job creating policies.

    Their logic is completely twisted.

  3. Craw,

    I'm waiting to see a Conservative Senator propose a bill banning the UN and booting them from our shores. I'd donate to them until it hurt!

  4. 1. I remember when the UN voted to expel Formosa and give the chair to Red China. The UN delegates were actually dancing in the aisles. Saw the same dance years later. In Palestine. On 9/11.

    2. The appeals process from a death sentence goes up through each court to the state's top appellate court. Then if/when the sentence is upheld the attorneys begin all over on some Constitutional issue or other. Fear of denial of the convicted's "day in court" fuel the appellate process. The solution would be a fast track for all capital cases wherein the SCOTUS can hear and rule on the Constitutionality of the trial and the punishment as well as any other Constitutional issues the appellate attorney(s) can think up.

    3. How many votes does it take to override a presidential veto?

    4. Harry Reid should explain the $1 Bil to Mexico much as he has tried to explain his "..the war is lost.." speech. Hell, he could claim the loan of the $1Bil was so Mexico could create jobs and keep Mexicans from becoming illegal aliens....

    5. Yep. Blaming it on Fox, Bush or the eeevil 'Pubs by the Black Caucus kinda reminds me of their hero, Ted Kennedy. After an airplane crash in '63 he had to wear a neck brace. Afterwards every time he would screw up he would run for his neck brace.....

    6. Wrong! You might find a few folks who believe Bagdad Bob's statement about the economy but you ain't going to find anyone who would believe Billy Jeff's statement.

    7. Is Spratt's goons going to strip search everyone entering the auditorium for a tape recorder?

    8. I know all about that military voter disenfranchisment. My first time to vote was in 1960. I was in Westpac. I got my absentee ballot sometime around the 1st of December. It had come by 3rd class surface mail...

    9. Not only did I not know who Susan Sarandon was married to I didn't/don't effing care! But only the cool people read "People".

    Something else those two ladies said on Hannity.

    They said there was no such thing as a "Moderate" muslim.

    I've been saying that all along.
    I rest my case.

  6. B-mom,
    in other words, those ladies were sayin' exactly what folks like myself, Gunny, Brian, Ghost, etc. have been sayin' for years.

    Let me know if it gets posted for all to hear/see, and I'll put the link in my columns.

  7. Eric,
    it ain't only their LOGIC that's twisted, brother!

  8. Gunny,
    What bout a Senate CANDIDATE who proposes such a bill? Take, for example, some late 40s Navy retiree who just won a lottery......

    (okay, I'm still in Dreamland, but...)

  9. Buck,
    1) President Crawfish would immediately recognize Taiwan, and point out to anyone who got miffed about it that Taiwan and China are, and have been since 1949, two completely separate and distinct entities. Denying that fact is an exercise in lunacy.
    2) Federal courts still have exactly zero jurisdiction when the charges are state charges.
    3) 67 in the Senate and 290 in the House (2/3 of each).
    4) How's His Majesty going to explain it out on the campaign trail? Oh, that's right...nobody is inviting him out on the campaign trail.
    5) When they reach adulthood, they will be able to take responsibility for their own actions. Since we know liberals are perpetual adolescents, though....never happen.
    6) A bunch of Democrat Senators believed Billy Jeff (officially) in the impeachment trial.
    7) Probably
    8) And the result....Lyndon Baines Johnson (okay, JFK, but he got shot which gave us LBJ)
    9) Cool, as in brains on ice.

  10. Fine heap o'crap Craw. The damnable U-frickin-N and Hitlary! both can take a flying leap off a tall cliff. I'm with Gunny. The first one to propose banning the U-frickin-N would get my vote,AND funds.

  11. Clyde,
    glad ya enjoyed it. I kinda miss your pamphlet sized responses. What's up?

  12. Crawfish,
    The Religion of Stone age Mentality supporters have a way to go when posturing about opponents to the Ground Zero masque, coffee shop, and WAR MEMORIAL. They would have every community act like Dearborn (Islamabad west) MI.
    See how they treat Christians handing out pamphlets on a public street: (Outrage warning)

  13. The Dumbocraps seem to be taking "potshots" at themselves, as we witness Red Nancy hitting Maxine Waters (see the below referenced).

    http://thehill.com/homenews/house/119331-aides-working-for-maxine-waters-asked-to-leave-pelosi-event

    I believe that it will get even nastier as we get closer to the November election. And if, as everyone is predicting, the Dumbocraps lose BIG, then I expect the political scene in DC to get really nasty.

    Another good edition Craw!
