The Crawfish is actually in a good mood this week (wait until you read the news sites! –ed.). The temperatures rose enough this weekend to melt away almost all of the snow! Of course, that caused The Crawfish and Mrs. Crawfish to get nice head colds, but we’ll get over it. The good news for my readers is a shorter-than-usual, but chock full of good stuff, column. Bon Appetite!

I don’t have any links for this story, but I did see Neil Cavuto on Fox News interviewing Michael Williams, the creator of www.taxcheatstamps.com .  He sells red ink stamps so the people can stamp “TAX CHEAT” over SecTreas Timothy Geithner’s name on currency.  Take a wild guess as to who just got notified by the IRS that he is getting audited?  Yep, just like in the Clinton days, the IRS is being used illegally to go after people who dare to oppose the Administration.  Is anybody surprised?

Did you actually think that the bills getting rushed through Congress this year weren’t going to have some unsettling language buried deep within? Some things got plopped into these bills where they were unlikely to be read until the votes had already occurred, or were written in such language that their true meaning could only be understood upon careful reading and examination. One of those items, which was buried AND written in such a manner as to be glossed over on the first 5 readings, is the rationing of health care options for those who are elderly. Once again, the Democratic Party says it is the party of compassion for all, but just like the abortion issue, it only cares for the votes that give it power. Hat tip goes to AllMilitary.com commenters Anastas and fawnmac.

When the “stimulus” bill went through the House, House Republicans had a provision in the bill requiring all companies that would get contracts with some of the “stimulus” money to use e-verify to make sure all of their workers were actually legal to work in the US. The Senate dropped that part of the bill. Now a couple of groups have estimated that as much as 15% of the jobs would go to illegals. Pro-illegal advocacy groups, while denouncing the implications and the possible backlash by the voters, do not dispute the numbers.

The Tea Party movement is gaining steam. While some of the rallies in late February had poor turnout, that was mostly due to the rallies being on work days, with very little lead time, and with very little prior publicity. A large rally was held Saturday afternoon in Harrisburg, PA. With the movement growing, along with the publicity, expect to see LARGE Tea Party rallies around the nation on National Democratic Party Day, April 15th.

How fed up are you with the “stimulus” bill and the omnibus spending bill? Well, Newsmax.com gives us a list of the Top Ten Boondoggles contained in them. Prepare to be spun up, again!

When a left-leaning columnist from the Financial Times of London says that President Obama is going way far to the left then you know we’re in trouble.

Since Obama is refusing to do anything about the pork and earmarks in the omnibus spending bill, in spite of his campaign promises to do so, Congressional Democrats are setting out to “educate” voters on why earmarks and pork are a GOOD thing.

This will probably come as a shock to none of my readers, but Rasmussen Reports has a poll out that shows 51% of Democrats believe that they cannot get a job without gummint help.

Why is He having such a hard time admitting what is made clear by every proposal He makes? He is a Marxist-socialist. At least grow a set and be man enough to say what you are!

This week’s winner of The Golden DUH! Award is Peter Orszag, Barack Obama’s Office of Management and Budget director. He came out over the weekend with the absolutely BRILLIANT observation that the economy is in his words, “weak.” Is The Crawfish the only one who has noticed that Obama has surrounded himself with a bunch of complete morons and crooks so He looks quite smart and honest in comparison?  Also, it is mandatory for every pronouncement involving the economy to be couched in the worst terms possible, so that they help to drive it down even further?

Obama even has his minions working as “Administrators” at free internet encyclopedia “Wikipedia.” His entry there is void of anything that might be considered negative, and users who attempt to post entries that include questions about his birth certificate, terrorist William Ayres, or racist Black Liberation Theologian Jeremiah Wright see their entries nuked within minutes and they are banned from posting on the site. Second rule of Dictators: control the media. Thou Shalt Not Speak Ill Of Dear Leader!

Keep an eye on the news out of Noo Yawk City over the next couple of days, as the 2009 International Conference on Climate Change happens. This conference is made up mostly of scientists who believe that the theory of man-made global warming is false. This is sure to get The Prophet Algoracle’s blood pressure up.

Meanwhile, The Frozen One is overseas telling the Europeans that the Bush Administration was lax on Glo-Bull Warming. Why do Democrats hate proven facts?

The Crawfish isn’t resigned to only reporting bad news these days. Sometimes, I have news of a GOOD ruling from the Supremes!

What happens when a corrupt politician is questioned about his corruption, which includes misuse of taxpayer money and cheating on taxes? Well, if the perp in question is the Chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee, which writes tax laws, the answer is: the reporter is asked to mind his own G-D business. Only Democrats can get away with this kinda behavior.

And it gets worse. A Chicago corruptocrat alderman was being presented a petition by a taxpayer who was displeased with the alderman’s performance when the alderman physically shoved the taxpayer while shouting “Get the f*** out of my office!” You stay classy, Chicago.

While Phoenix becomes the kidnapping capital of the US and other Mexican drug cartel violence spreads across the southwestern states, including murder in Houston, Homeland Security Secretary Napolitano still says that she will do nothing about the border unless the drug cartels start doing stuff on our side of the border, and then she’ll consult the contingency plans that she is currently having studied and written. Yes, you read that correctly. She refuses to admit that drug cartels and gangs are operating anywhere in the US in spite of the fact that the city where she resided as Governor of Arizona is besieged by them. Does this explain why some people don’t believe that the O Administration takes national security seriously?

What would happen if your state started sponsoring mortgage loans specifically for certain Christian or Jewish denominations? The local ACLU would go absolutely bonkers, along with the state Democratic Party. Of course, if your live in Minnesotastan you know that the state is sponsoring loans for the Followers of the False Prophet, aka the terrorist sympathizers, aka muslims, in order to allow them to get home loans under Sharia Law. Darn, and The Crawfish had gone a couple of weeks without hacking off CAIR…

The Psychotic Midget Dictator With The Funky Hair And High Heeled Shoes is now threatening war against any nation that dares to intercept their upcoming missile launch. If that missile is headed anywhere near Japan or South Korea, you can bet it will get blasted. If it actually impacts Japan or South Korea, the launching site will cease to exist. Bring it on, pipsqueak!

If the gummint in DC continues on the path that Red Nanny and The Chosen One have turned it to, then The Crawfish might end up voting for CHUCK NORRIS for President of The Republic of Texas!
