Some of you are going to cheer this news, and some are going to be disappointed, but today’s edition of The Weekly Claw is going to be a good bit shorter than the norm. The Crawfish was under the weather all weekend and didn’t do any work on The Claw until Monday. Mrs. Crawfish was even angry that I didn’t drive to the base on my day off to visit our useless clinic sick call. C’est la vie.

When the “stimulus” bill left the House, it was at about $825,000,000,000.00. The Senate quickly bumped that number up to almost $1,000,000,000,000.00, then started “negotiating” with Democrat undercover agents Susan Collins, Olympia Snowe, and Arlen S.P.E.C.T.R.E. They claimed to have a breakthrough by reducing the bill by some huge amount, which brings it down all the way to $867,000,000,000.00. “The American Traitors,” as we shall now call Collins, Snowe, and S.P.E.C.T.R.E., agreed that the bill was now a good deal in spite of the fact that it still has all of the non-stimulus PORK from the House bill in it and now costs even MORE. This is the biggest anti-Constitutional boondoggle since LBJ’s “Great Society” programs that achieved ZERO results for more than $4,000,000,000,000.00 in expenditures. I hope there’s somebody out there who has the cojones and the $$$ to challenge the Constitutionality of this monstrosity in court.

Update: “The American Traitors” were victorious in the initial vote for cloture. Now it goes to conference committee, where Red Nanny is vowing to reinstate everything that the Senate took out.

Not only is he a member of “The American Traitors,” but Arlen S.P.E.C.T.R.E. IS A LIAR! On Monday morning, he was interviewed on “The Michael Smerconish Show” and said that everyone who has come out and said that the New Deal didn’t work is historically wrong, that the New Deal did great things for our economy. Sorry, LIAR, but even FDR’s Treasury Secretary Morgenthau said after 8 years of the New Deal that it had accomplished zilch, and he was one of the archetechs of that program. S.P.E.C.T.R.E. continued his LIES by saying that the current “stimulus” bill contains NO EARMARKS and NO PORK! He even went on to say that a number of GOP Senators are in favor of the bill, but will vote against it only because they want to be re-elected. Michael Steele needs to throw that idiot out of the GOP immediately. S.P.E.C.T.R.E. even wrote a column about his decision in the liberal Washington Post. It basically said “we’ve gotta do something and do it now” but details were non-existent.

Here’s your opportunity to do something that NONE of the Senators will actually do. You can read the new “compromise” bill and all of the previous versions. Hope you are a graduate of the Evelyn Wood speed reading course.

Land Deal Reid even refused to allow a bipartisan amendment to the “stimulus” to even be brought to the floor because it mandated that anybody getting the money had to have their immigration status verified. In other words, he wants ILLEGALS to get paid with YOUR TAX $$!

Only 20% of Americans want the “stimulus” bill passed as is, while 62% want the bill to have less gummint spending and more tax cuts. What? You didn’t hear about that poll in the media? I’m shocked.

Failed comedian Al Frankenstein is all about proving that he is a good Democrat. He even went so far as to admit that he owes over $50,000.00 in back taxes. Yep, he fits right in.

I know that most of my readers don’t care, except for the comedy factor, but another ditzy celebrity has come out and said that living under a Republican President “almost kiled me.”

The Democrats are in a huge hurry to get the new version of the “stimulus” passed. They want this to get voted on before the GOP and talk radio can read it and tell the American people what a load of manure they’re getting.

Newsweek Magazine is celebrating. Their cover story proclaims ”We are all socialists now” and that we will become more and more FRENCH! To them, that is a GOOD thing.

Many people are onboard with the gummint limiting executive salaries for companies receiving bailout funds, but now Bawney Fwank wants to extend gummint control over executive pay to ALL companies in the USA. Yep, The Crawfish sees that power right there in the 33rd Amendment. What? There isn’t a 33rd Amendment?

The Chosen One has issued another executive order that is guaranteed to waste money and time. According to the order, all large scale gummint construction projects will be unionized so the costs will increase by 10-20% and the laziness factor of union workers will cause all projects to take 25-50% longer than projected.

Good Lord, how our national values have changed. In Arizona, a group of sixteen ILLEGAL ALIENS are suing a rancher for detaining them at gunpoint when they were crossing his land. If this had been traditional America, the sixteen would have assumed ambient temperature and the local sherriff would have had prisoners from the local jail toss the bodies over the border fence.

The Administration is trying very hard to win the support of the muslim world, but the muslim world will not be satisfied until Israel is destroyed. Actually, that’s just the first step. They won’t be satisfied until all non-muslims are dead.

Seattle is doing its best to be the new Chicago, with dead Democrats being eligible to vote. Hat tip to blogger dawndawn who checks in from nice, warm Mexico.

Between the “stimulus” bill before the Senate now and everything else the gummint has done during this “crisis,” they could have paid off 90% of the mortgages in the country. Too bad most of the money is going to the pet programs of the liberals instead.

Former NFL quarterback and current DEMOCRAT Congresscritter Heath Schuler has gone public with a statement calling the leadership of Red Nanny and Land Deal FAILED!  Mr. Schuler, there may be hope for you yet.

Proving that unions are made up of people who are completely seperated from reality, the NFL Player Association is filing a grievance over the non-payment of bonus money by the Noo Yawk Giants to Grade A Dumb-Bass Plaxico Burris. The idjut shot himself with an illegal weapon in a nightclub, and the union thinks he deserves more money?
