4-6-2011 The Weekly Claw

ots of stuff on my platter again, so expect another weekend edition. I really wish that I could just write one small column per week, but the Democrats are screwing up our nation so badly that I have a glut of material.

Does your vehicle need this security feature? I know that The Crawfish doesn’t take kindly to probes, either!

The Dim-ocrats in general and Barack Hussein Obama in particular, really do hate the allies of our nation. Obama kowtows to the Chinese, supports the Muslim Brotherhood, opposes Israel building apartments for Israelis within Israel, sells/gives guns to Mexican drug cartels, and now there’s a story about how he is blocking sales of F-16 upgrade packages to Taiwan. What friend of ours has he supported? What enemy of ours has he not placated?

When he was the head if the IAEA, we knew Mohammed ElBaradei was just another muslim lying to the infidels about the nuclear programs of Syria and Iran. Now he proves to us where he stands, and by association where the UN stands since they always backed him. He says that if he is elected President of Egypt and the Israelis strike the so-called palestinians in Gaza (which is technically still part of Israel), that he will declare war on Israel. Yep, just another stooge of the Muslim Brotherhood.

Here we go again. Another group of “peaceful” muslims in America is proven to be a front for terrorism. This mosque in Florida is run by the Muslim Brotherhood, raises funds for, and recruits for, the terrorist organization Hamas in their war against Israel.

Harry Reid thinks we need to hold hearings on Koran burnings. The Democrats support flag burnings, and their friends in the KKK have cross burnings. The muslim world burns Bibles and any other Christian items found in Saudi Arabia. So why single out people who burn the book of a pedophilic false prophet?

The muslims around the world are going absolutely nuts because a book of fiction was burned, but that pales in comparison to what muslims burn, and there is no outcry in the world’s media over their actions. Double standards, anyone? Violence and mayhem is part of the culture of Islam, and especially of Afghanistan. It is time that we stopped walking on eggshells when dealing with these cultists.

This one is sure to raise your hackles. The racists at the Georgia Legislative Black Caucus have filed a lawsuit against the state, because there are some new towns that they consider to be “too white” for their tastes. “This suit is based on the idea that African Americans and other minorities can elect the people of their choice.” So…..whites can’t elect the people of their choice? Whites don’t get freedom of association?

The Crawfish was challenged at one of the five sites that carry The Weekly Claw to back up my assertion that Harry Reid is a LIAR when he states that Social Insecurity has not added a dime to the deficit. Well, Gunny G quickly sent in a link to an article from the liberal Annenberg Project from February that states: “Some senior Democrats are claiming that Social Security does not contribute "one penny" to the federal deficit. That’s not true. The fact is, the federal government had to borrow $37 billion last year to finance Social Security, and will need to borrow more this year. The red ink is projected to total well over half a trillion dollars in the coming decade.” Yes, Harry Reid is a LIAR.

Here’s another examination of the root causes of the 2008-2009 financial mess. It is missing one gigantic piece of the puzzle, as I don’t see the Community Reinvestment Act mentioned.

Here is yet more evidence that the model for Obamacare, the British National Health System, is as crappy as any socialist program usually is.

Those poor, mistreated liberals just can’t take it. Here’s an Indiana Dim-ocrat running away from his job, because his party got defeated in an election, comparing his departure to a hotel in Corruptionois to a soldier leaving home for Afghanistan. Sorry, but the soldier is GOING TO his job, while you are RUNNING FROM your job. What hardships do these fleebaggers face, other than not-so-great cable lineups at their hotels? The soldier is showing HONOR, COURAGE, and DEDICATION. You are showing cowardice and immaturity. Your comparison is an INSULT to every veteran and current member of our armed forces.

The Wisconsin union teacher who e-mailed the death threats to the Republican lawmakers has not been charged or even arrested. The District Attorney responsible for issuing the charges and arrest warrant is too busy assisting the unions in their attempt to overturn the law to actually do his job. Yes, it is now the official position of District Attorney Ismael Ozanne that making death threats to public officials is not criminal behavior.

The union teachers in California have a really sweet deal going. When they retire, they still make more per year than most teachers in the country. Of course, the taxpayers of California are about to get some serious sticker shock regarding those retirement benefits, since the pension fund currently can only pay 78% of the future obligations, and that is if by some act of God the fund’s investments return at a whopping 8% rate, which will never happen. They’d better get those illegals paying taxes in a hurry!

I’m not saying that Barack Hussein Obama is a liar, but in November he said, “American taxpayers are now positioned to recover more than my administration invested in GM.” Since when is $84 BILLION in losses for the taxpayers a recovery of more than what was invested?

Speaking of lies associated with Obama, the World Health Organization study that was cited as justification for Obamacare was nothing but a fraud, which is what we expect from that organization. It was so disingenuous that the infant mortality rate in the US compared to the rest of the world (a key point for one of my liberal readers who just can’t seem to face reality regarding socialism) intentionally used incompatible statistics. Most other nations do not include low birth weight babies and other conditions that lead to early deaths.

His Homeland Security Ditz, Janet Incompetano, is also a liar. She recently came out and said that the cities near the southern border are as safe as they have ever been. That would be big news to those living in Phoenix. That city is #2 in the WORLD in kidnappings, trailing only Mexico City, and the police believe that the number of kidnappings is heavily under-reported, since many victims are non-drybacks. As you were saying, Janet?

Just in case any of y’all actually believed that AARP actually stands for seniors and helps them out, here’s a cold-water wake up call. AARP is an organization that puts profit and partisan politics over their members every chance they get.

Why has the American economy turned to crap over the past few decades? We’ve lost most of our manufacturing jobs because of liberal union domination that makes it much less expensive for companies to move their factories out of our nation. We’ve also grown the size of government, with a large chunk of that growth coming since Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, and Barack Obama came to power in January of 2007. Today, there are almost 2 government workers in America for every factory worker. Saying that this is a disgrace is like saying gang rape is a mild social deviation.

In the continuing budget battles, Senator Nelson (Dim-People of the Corn) said, “It is time to stop playing political games and finish the job that the American public is paying us to do.” Barack Obama chimed in with, “What we are not going to do is once again put off something that should have been done months ago.” Well, let’s take a look at the problem. Oh, I see it! The DEMOCRATS had complete control and could have passed the budget months ago but decided to play politics in an election year! As the shutdown deadline nears, we need leadership in DC. On that subject, Barack Obama ran out of town instead of facing his responsibilities. He’s voting PRESENT yet again.

Thanks to reader Al Zelent for sending in this video report. The Crawfish gives a hearty, traditional Navy “Well Done!” to the veterans who restored PT 658. Here’s hoping that the younger volunteers can take care of your boat for a long, long time.

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.
