The Weekly Claw 12-30-08

I really didn’t expect to have a very large column for the Christmas to New Year’s week, especially since I didn’t spend much time online. Obviously, I was incorrect in my expectations.

Okay, who is preparing to write Bill a frickin’ huuuuge check? Hillary just wrote off $13.2 MILLION that she “loaned” her campaign plus $77,900 in interest on that “loan.” People don’t just “write off” that kind of money, especially when they have a history of money-grubbing, unless they’re expecting something in return.

On the subject of financial information, we have another story of a a KENNEDY hiding information that could be somewhat embarrassing. The Kennedy family hiding sleeze? I’d be shocked if a member of that clan, whose fortunes were made rum-running during Prohibition, was to have a less than stellar record. Okay, maybe not.

As reported previously, the State of Californication is in deep kimchee with their finances, so the Governator has ordered all state employees to take two days per month off without pay. It is getting worse, as reports now say that the state could be BROKE in two month’s time. Of course, that means nothing to the UNIONS. They are suing the Governator over the order. Just like with the Big 3, the unions don’t care if the entity that actually employs the workers goes under, as long as the UNION doesn’t show any weakness. Say it with me now…”morons!”

Bawney Fwank says that Obama ”overestimates” his ability to unify people. The rest of us believe that Bawney Fwank overestimates how much the American people care what a corrupt gay guy from Taxachussetts thinks.

Hooray for The Pope! Pope Benedict came out with a statement that affirms what the Word of God says about homosexuality. Immediately, heterophobic groups labeled his comments “homophobic”, “irresponsible”, “unacceptable”, and “gay-bashing.” Well, if you believe that the Bible is unacceptable and irresponsible, then you need to quit calling yourself a Christian.

First sign of the Apocalypse in the coming year…video game injuries. I saw this story and could only shake my head in amazement.

As if I really expected anything different from this upcoming Administration, The Chosen One’s Cabinet picks are a very “diverse” lot but the question remains as to why they were picked that way. Was it purely for political correctness, or did he pick the best people for the jobs? Of course, some race mongers will never be satisfied. The Hill reports that members of the Black Congressional Caucus, by definition a racist group, are unhappy that blacks will only fill 5 of the 15 Cabinet positions. Why should a group that comprises about 15% of the population be angry with controlling the White House (well, 1/8 of it, since HE is 3/8 arab and ½ white) and 33% of the Cabinet? Once again, Dr. King’s words are only taken to heart by conservatives.

And now for the shock of the year! The internal investigation report by Obama’s people say that none of his staff did anything wrong and neither did he. Of course, the media is lapping it up as a conclusive unbiased report.

I’ll just post this link without comment. It is too bizarre for my words.

In response to this story all I can say is, “I friggin’ hope so!”

The Media Research Center has published their list of the quotes of the year and Chrissy “Puffball” Matthews gets the top award. The rest are worthy contenders.

Ya gotta love the Followers of the False Prophet. Here’s yet another example of why that part of the world is considered uncivilized by all who have brains.

This story of Glo-Bull Warming alarmists is definitely NOT in the holiday spirit, unless you are one of the brain-dead worshippers of Gaia. Those “scientists” can kiss my tail section.

How much is The Prophet Algoracle and Church of Gorons making off of this scam in Than Franthithco? He did pick the perfect city of left wing idiots to make a mint.

“Vote early, vote often” was a slogan back in the day in Chicago, but it apparently is legally accepted in Minnesota if you live in a Democrat-majority precinct.

The regular readers of The Weekly Claw know how I stand on the impending surrender of Europe to Islam. Well, the chairman of a political party in The Netherlands gives us more background and details on how Europe is almost lost, and how the USA is the last bulwark. By publishing that link, I’ve probably made CAIR’s watch list….again.

Ah, the City of Brotherly Hate strikes again. Some people are just pure morons and need to be removed from the gene pool. Where’s a lifeguard?

Here comes a story that gives The Crawfish some hope for our nation in 2010.

The UAW really does need a big dose of reality. They’re claiming so much heartache and anguish, but they own a country club resort worth $33 MILLION. That’s the kind of stuff, along with donations to left wing politicians, that union dues go to.

As a CPR Instructor since 1992, The Crawfish is well-versed in a law that is in effect in all 50 states, as well as Canada and most of western Europe. It is called the Good Samaritan Law. I seem to have just misspoke, since California’s Supreme Court doesn’t believe that the law means what it says and is null and void. The actual wording of the law is, “In order to encourage people to participate in emergency medical services training programs and to render emergency medical services to others, no person who in good faith renders emergency care at the scene of an emergency shall be liable for any act or omission.” The State Supremes’ ruling states ”We hold that the Legislature intended for section 1799.102 to immunize from liability for civil damages any person who renders emergency medical care. Torti does not contend that she rendered emergency medical care and she may not, therefore, claim the immunity in section 1799.102.” Note that nowhere in the law does it say “medical care, “ but rather simply “emergency care.” Here’s the full reference of a law that CLEARLY protects the defendant in this case. Why is it so hard for lawyers and judges, especially in liberal states, to understand and stick to the actual wording of laws? They are trying to read INTENT into what a legislature did, when the legislature was very clear in their intent, and put it in writing, just like the Founding Fathers did with the Constitution and the Federalist Papers.

Every time I see news from the Vatican, I seem to like Pope Benedict even more, and I’m not even Catholic. The first tech-savvy Pope (he’s known to use an iPod and to text message people from his cell phone) and the Catholic Church have officially endorsed an app for iPods that contains many Catholic prayers, as well as the Breviary, a Daily Prayer issued by the Church. Future upgrades may include additional prayers and audio portions such as Gregorian Chant.

Defenders of the 2nd Amendment take note of this story and how the liberals are trying to destroy your rights! Note that making your own ammunition would be illegal if this passes! This MUST NOT PASS!

Hamas has been launching rockets and mortar rounds into Israel for weeks and they seem to be astonished that Israel would have the nerve to strike back. Prepare for all of the Followers of the False Prophet to condemn Israel and call for international action against Israel in 5-4-3-2-1. The so-called “Palestinians,” no matter how many times they attack Israel, are always “victims,” but their militants purposely put their missiles in civilian areas so that any casualties can be shown to the world as unjust Israeli actions. Nevermind that the missiles they launch into Israel are aimed at civilians. Israel needs to send every single muslim in Gaza, the West Bank, and the Golan Heights back to arab lands. Those lands are rightfully Israeli, having been won during wars of aggression launched by the arabs against Israel in attempts to exterminate the Jewish population of that nation. Oops. That probably got me on CAIR’s watch list even if the above article didn’t.

Am I the only one who finds it fitting that a nut company sponsors a bowl game in the Land of Fruits, Nuts, and Flakes (aka Californication), specifically in Than Franthithco?

I really am surprised that this story made it into the media at all. Then again, it hasn’t been allowed in the mainstream media in the US, so The Gorons can still make their money on the carbon credit scams.

It is now time for “News from the land of the pirates.” Somalia’s President has resigned after four years in office. I didn’t realize that Somalia actually had a government!

Do y’all want another example of YOUR money being improperly used by our gummint? Well, ya get it anyway. Senator Tom Harkin (DEMOCRAT-Iowa) has appropriated $8 MILLION for a company that would not be eligible for money from the program it is coming from, except that Harkin gave them an exemption. This company was failing ever since they got busted for having most of their workforce made up of illegal aliens. Gotta love how the Democrats uphold the law and look out for AMERICAN workers.

Some folks on the left keep claiming that the W Administration has trampled on the Bill of Rights by authorizing signals intelligence on international phone calls. These same people support tracking where all cars in a state go and taxing them according to their mileage. Stand by for a couple of years of extremely creative ideas for taxing EVERYTHING.

Is it just me, or does Caroline Kennedy look more like John Kerry than her father?

Blogger Saltwater gives us a wonderful little story about his grandkids, and how the grandson is becoming a master negotiator for an eight year old. And the moral of the story is……(I ain’t saying. You can read it yourself!)

If y’all come across any weird/stoooopid/strange news stories that might be fodder for The Weekly Claw, e-mail them to me at at1aw_usn@yahoo.com and I’ll consider ‘em. Yes, I will give you newshounds credit.
