The Weekend Claw 10-23-09
It’s a week before Halloween. Have all of you eeeeeevilllll conservatives started poisoning the candy for the kiddies yet? Remember that if any kid in the country DOES get a poisoned piece of candy (or gets hurt in any way), it is going to be because of capitalists, conservatives, and Fox News.
Golden Corral has been doing it for 9 years, but now Applebee’s is joining them in celebrating Veteran’s Day by giving a free meal to all of our military personnel and veterans. Note that Golden Corral’s celebration is actually on Monday the 16th. Those are two companies that deserve your support.
Over this weekend, take pause and remember the events of 65 years ago, October 23-26, 1944. The Battle of Leyte Gulf was possibly the last large scale fleet battle that will ever be fought on the oceans of our planet.
The entertainment world lost another great one this week, as Soupy Sales passed on at age 83.
For once, The Crawfish is at odds with Citizens Against Government Waste, and is on the same side as (GULP!) John Murtha! CAGW, and a few other groups, are opposing funding for an alternate engine program for the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter, saying a second engine program is just a big waste of funds. I heartily disagree. We have a history of producing aircraft for our military that initially have one engine, but are found to need a different engine (or a heavily modified version of the original engine) to reach their optimum performance. I’ll just name a few: P-51 Mustang (the original Allison engine was nothing compared to the Rolls-Royce Merlin!), F-14 Tomcat, F-16 Falcon, and B-29 Superfortress.
Next month, freedom loving people around the world will celebrate the 20th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall. Since that is a celebration of a victory of freedom over Marxist-socialist communism, Barack Obama will not attend. He and all of his Marxist-socialist associates (P-Lousy, Ayers, Dorn, Frank Davis, Soros, Anita Dunn, Rev. Wrong, the czars, etc) will be in mourning that day.
Homeland Security Ditz Nappy and the Affirmative Action Attorney General must be really getting hacked off by Sheriff Joe’s continuing efforts to uphold our laws. Townhall blogger “Saltwater” sent me a story about Sheriff Joe having a press conference regarding his anti-illegal alien sweeps. The press conference was only open to the press, but at least six people from the Department of InJustice tried to get in. The liberals are mad because Sheriff Joe seems to be “profiling” in his sweeps and is arresting non-drybacks (aka future core Democrat voters). Well duh! Profiling is not a bad thing. It is simply PROPER LAW ENFORCEMENT PROCEDURE!
Do black Americans have any idea how much their subservience to the Democratic Party has cost them? How much more political power would they have if they had not supported pro-abortion liberals for all of these decades? When you consider that abortion kills more black Americans than the other top 7 causes of death COMBINED every year, you see what they’ve lost.
While Michael Steele, Newt Gingrich, and the GOP establishment are supporting an ACORN and union loving liberal in the special election for Noo Yawk’s 23rd Congressional District, the biggest news so far for that race came this week when Conservative Party candidate Doug Hoffman was heartily endorsed by Sarah Palin, to go along with the previous endorsements by Michelle(***sigh***) Malkin, Glenn Beck, Richard Armey, and other real conservatives. On the other hand, Hoffman’s “Republican” opponent has been endorsed by: Planned Parenthood, New York Choice Pact, the National Education Association, and unions representing longshoremen, electrical workers, and transportation workers. Somehow, The Crawfish believes that Sarahcuda is going to be a major player in the 2010 election cycle, not by running for office herself, but by making a difference in races around the country where she will support truly conservative candidates. I need to hurry up and win a big Powerball so I can get an endorsement and on-stage hug from Sarah as I run for Congress!
Speaking of Sarah Palin, could it be that one of the people who mocked her last year is now becoming one of her fans and maybe a supporter in 2012?
The Affirmative Action Attorney General and his Department of InJustice are stuck in the middle of another hoax of a race crime. Malik Shabazz, the New Black Panther Party thug who Holder’s people let off the hook in the Philadelphia voter intimidation case, is one of the enablers of one Megan Williams of West Virginny, who accused seven white men of sexual abuse. All seven plead guilty to charges (which Shabazz opposed as the charges they plead to weren’t severe enough), but now Williams has recanted, saying the abuse never happened. Shabazz was also one of the enablers in the hoax race crime involving the Duke Lacrosse team. Is it just me, or does this also resemble the not-so-reverend-Al’s involvement with the hoax race crime of Tawana Brawley?
Holder’s Department of InJustice will probably work to pardon Tarek Mehanna, saying he’s just a poor misunderstood member of the Religion of Perpetual Outrage and besides, the whiteys would have deserved it. Meanwhile, CAIR is no doubt setting up Mehanna’s legal defense team as I type.
Another adherent to the Religion of the Pedophilic False Prophet might need CAIR’s legal assistance. Faleh Hassan Almaleki was upset that his daughter, who is an adult living in the United States, was assimilating into American culture like any immigrant should (and refusing to go through with an arrainged marriage), so he ran over her and her roommate with his car. Sooner or later, the American people are going to have to wake up and realize that Islam is not compatible with the rest of the world and that there will be no peace until either every muslim or every non-muslim in the world is dead. Of course, even if all non-muslims were dead, the Shi’ia and Sunni muslims would still try to exterminate each other. Yep, that’s the Religion of Peace.
The #2 Dim-ocrat in the House, Steny Hoyer, doesn’t understand the difference between the PREAMBLE of the Constitution and the ENUMERATED POWERS of the Constitution. He claims that the “general welfare clause”, which is part of the Preamble, grants Congress the authority to order all Americans to buy government-approved health insurance. Sorry, Steny (what kind of name is Steny???), but the Preamble is a general statement describing the goals of the Constitution and has no power on its own. He also said that Congress has the power to mandate a lot of things, and this is just like them mandating that Americans pay taxes, unless they are Charlie Rangel, Tim Geithner… Meanwhile, Senator “Leaky” Leahy (Jassack-VT) believes Congress has that authority, even though he doesn’t know where it comes from, but has the audacity to say that “there’s no question there’s authority, nobody questions that!” Sorry, Senator, but everybody who understands the Constitution is questioning that.
CNSNews asked Queen of the House Red Nanny P-Lousy where Congress gets its Constitutional authorization to force Americans to buy health insurance. All she could stammer was, “Are you serious?” Her spokesman later said that asking about the Constitutionality of that mandate cannot be considered a serious question. In other words, they’re going to do whatever they want to do, no matter what the Constitution says. It is THAT kind of arrogance that makes the majority of taxpayers outside of DC and Than Franthithco absolutely detest her.
At least House Minority Leader John Boehner understands that governmentally mandating the purchase of anything is un-American.
More fiscal shenanigans have been uncovered in the Obamacare bills. The Baucus Bill, which the last edition of The Claw exposed as dropping costs at the expense of the states having to more than double their Medicare expenditures, has another way to reduce the “on-budget” costs. They’re going to raise the Social Insecurity taxes and skim off of that revenue! This still does not violate The Messiah’s pledge to not raise taxes on those making less than $250,000.00 per year, because this isn’t really an income tax, even though it is a tax on wage income.
About 7 months ago, His Majesty King Barack I said, “If there is a way of getting this done where we’re driving down costs and people are getting health insurance at an affordable rate, and have choice of doctor, have flexibility in terms of their plans, and we could do that entirely through the market, I’d be happy to do it that way.” Well, the Cato Institute has the blueprint for exactly what he was asking for, but since it isn’t remotely close to a path to socialized, gummint-run health care, he won’t even bother giving it to his people to check out. Will the lamestream media cover this? (insert sound of crickets here)
The Department of Health and Human Services’ Office of the Actuary has issued a report stating that the Obamacare bills in the House would drive the costs of health care UP, not down! So if it is going to drive the costs up, and will only cover a few of the folks who are not currently covered, what’s the point, other than government control and making the populace dependent upon the government, thereby insuring Democratic Party power for eternity?
Will somebody puh-leeze try to make some sense of this? Our leftist politicians refuse to allow for expanding domestic oil production in the Baaken fields of the northern plains, the Black Warrior Basin, ANWR, and offshore in our own territorial waters, but China is about to start drilling in our territorial waters. Which side are the Democrats on? I guess we just answered that, again.
The envirowackos who lead the charge against all drilling in America are also fighting clean “green” energy. They are taking their fight against wind turbine power generation to the federal courts, because some endangered bats might die. It’s called evolution, ya idjuts. Get over it. What do you really want from us? To go back to stone age style living?
President Obama is about to sign legislation that makes the 14th Amendment’s guarantee of equal protection under the law a thing of the past. Yes, he’s going to sign into law the new “hate crimes” legislation, which makes crimes against non-whites, non-Christians, and heterophobes MORE of a crime than those committed against straight white Christian males. It is also a step toward squelching all speech supporting the anti-homosexual stance that is a part of the holy books of Christianity, Judaism, and Islam.
Here’s a story that is sure to be ignored by The Prophet Algoracle, the Gorons, and British Prime Minister Brown. Meteorologists have recorded the lowest October temperature ever in Germany. Darn that Glo-Bull Warming!
Why is it that every single Obama appointee either has tax problems or is a complete radical? His latest appointee to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (which in itself needs to go away) is a heterophobe activist who instructed other like-minded activists to declare that “gay sex is morally good.” This Administration not only wants to destroy our Constitutional form of government, but it also wants to tear apart the very fabric of American family and religious/moral life.
I really don’t understand why Afghanistan is still the producer of 90% of the world’s opium. Once our forces got in there, all of the opium farmers should have been told to start growing different crops or see their lands get Agent Oranged. We could have even provided them with seeds for whatever crops they could grow on those lands. That crop not only fuels the world’s heroin problems, but it is also the number one source of revenue for the Taliban and Al-Qaeda groups in that region.
How much does Barack Obama wish to be worshipped around the world? How about enough to GIVE AWAY 10% of our swine flu vaccines before the demand in the US is even met. Why take care of Americans when there’s another Nobel Peace Prize to win?
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 at1aw_usn@yahoo.com and I’ll consider ‘em. Yes, I will give you newshounds credit.
