Welcome to the New Year. 2009 promises to be a WONDERFUL YEAR (well….for us bloggers at least. We ain’t gonna run short of material at all!). Fasten your safety belts. Buckle your chin strap. Say a couple of Hail Marys. The fast and bumpy ride is about to begin.
The Gaia worshippers have gotten waaaaay outta hand, again. The City of Seattle refuses to use salt and sand mixtures to clear their roads of ice. Their streets are now coated with packed ice, and are impassable for emergency vehicles. The Greeniemorons are doing this because salt and sand might be environmentally damaging to Puget Sound which, as we all know, is a body of SALTWATER! Salt is damaging to saltwater, and so is sand, in spite of the fact that most beaches contain….wait for it….SAND!
Pakistan’s refusal to really help in the war against radical Islam is biting them in the tail section. Not only did radical militants from Pakistan stage the November attack on Mumbai, India, which is causing severe tensions between the nations, but now the Taliban is running wild in the areas that the Pakis refuse to actively govern. Their stoooopidity in dealing with the radicals now has them on the precipice of war with India and an invasion of the tribal areas by the western powers. Placate the “Religion of Peace” and find yourself at war. The Times of India even brings us a story of the Taliban ordering locals to give up their daughters for marriage to Taliban terrorists of face “dire consequences.” What do you expect from a “religion” that was made up by a known pedophile? Ooops. I’m sure this paragraph is not going to be looked at kindly by CAIR…again.
Wacked out liberal, and last year’s Green Party candidate for President, Cynthia McKinney is supporting the terrorist group Hamas in their fight against the legitimate nation of Israel. This is hardly surprising, since she has a history of getting campaign donations, in violation of US laws, from anti-Israel arabs. Hopefully her passport has been revoked.
Are the Republicans actually going to have the intestinal fortitude to follow through with this? If they listen to the people who actually vote for them, yes. If they listen to the lobbyists and the big-government RINOs, like W, then no.
All I can say is why wasn’t I there with my straw???
Filthadelphia Mayor Michael Nutter is under fire for part of his plan to trim the city budget, which is hopelessly in deficit-mode. The plan includes closing down 11 public libraries. Considering the sad state of Philly’s public schools, The Crawfish sees no problem with shutting the libraries down, since most of the folks can’t read English anyway!
In the midst of their campaign of missile attacks, Hamas has passed a new set of Sharia Laws. It endorses nailing enemies of Islam to crosses as the Jerusalem Post reports. How nice of the “Religion of Peace.” Dang, here I go on CAIR’s watch list again.
Here they go again. The atheists and other anti-God-in-public morons are filing suit to prevent the use of “so help me God” in the oath of office and the invocation prayer at the inauguration. Don’t these people understand the simple language of the 1st Amendment? Publicly acknowledging God is part of the “free exercise thereof” part, not the “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion” part, as Congress is not establishing any STATE RELIGION!
The Chosen One has made a very good move! I told all y’all that I would praise him when he did something right. When slimeball soon-to-be-former Governor Blago named a replacement for the Obama Senate seat, Obama sided with Harry Reid and Senate Democrats in saying that any appointment by Blago would be unacceptable. The named replacement was former state AG Roland Burris, a black man. The Concerned Black Clergy folks in Corruptionnois (reported in a previous column as demanding that the seat stay black) are gonna have kittens. The Urban League and Congressman Bobby Rush are playing the race card, with Rush urging the Senate not to “hang and lynch” Burris (“lynch” being a word that is only used by liberals as a codeword for racist actions). The Corruptionnois Secretary of State has, so far, refused to certify the appointment, and Senate Democrats will give the Rules Committee 90 days to consider if the appointment is valid, if the Corruptionnois Supremes force the appointment through. By that time, Blago’s impeachment might have been finalized.
All of those folks who demanded the bailout of the auto industry are in for a shock when they see what powers the ‘Car Czar’ will have under this legislation. Imagine a GOVERNMENT position that has the power to dictate to a private business what kinds of products it will produce and what price it will sell those products for. I still can’t find that power for the federal government in my copies of the Constitution. Meanwhile, it appears that GOLF is the central business of the UAW when they’re not trying to drive the Big 3 out of business.
Blogger Gunny G has been linked a few times in my columns. Well, he’s gonna be linked a few more times. His research and editorial comments give us this un-PC column on behind the scenes Obama people and this also un-PC column on even MORE of Obama’s connections. You won’t get this kind of information on the front page of your local paper, or even on the mainstream TV news. Suffice it to say that lots of people associated with Dear Leader are opposed to everything America has traditionally stood for, including that pesky Constitution.
I’ve covered the split occurring within the Episcopal Church in the USA before, and have expressed my support for traditional Anglican theology, bordering on Catholic theology. The current Archbishop of Canterbury does not have my support in any way. He’s a loony lefty, and has expressed sympathies for Islam in the UK. Well, it gets worse. The Church of England is joining with The Prophet Algoracle and the Gorons by investing over 150 million British Pounds in The Prophet’s investment firm. A major church investing in a complete fraud, amazing.
Meanwhile, the Environment Minister in Ireland says that the greenie movement is a complete fraud and the money could be better spent elsewhere!
There is a black preacher out in Harlem who is a counter to Rev. Wrong and “Father” Pflieger, the spiritual mentors of Dear Leader. This Youtube link of Dr. James Manning shows a charismatic black religious leader who abhors Affirmative Action and the other entitlement programs that have wrecked Black America, and he calls for black men to show self-reliance and self-respect. His church’s website appears to be the complete opposite of Trinity United Church of Christ (the “church” of Rev. Wrong, Dear Leader, and Black Liberation Theology….until the media started paying attention to them) and what their website looked like a year ago. These links come from an e-mail buddy of mine, and former SEAL, Bill.
The whining from the Big 3 in Detroit has found unsympathetic ears in the form of the owner of a machinery company. Just so y’all know it is a true letter, I haven’t linked the letter itself, but rather a link to snopes.com’s story which includes the whole thing. Good piece of writing by that gentleman. I don’t think he voted for the Democrats.
Five DEMOCRAT Governors are starting to plead to Dear Leader and Congress for bailout money to cover the fact that their states have been run horribly over the years. Notice that even the most liberal Republican Governor in the nation, Ahnald the Governator, knows that the way to balance a state budget involves cutting wasteful spending. For Democrats, the answer is ALWAYS raising taxes (and doubling highway tolls, as Governor Corzine of Noooo Joisey is doing this year) combined with gummint handouts.
The raising of taxes isn’t just an issue for those five Governors, either. A federal commission set up by liberals in Congress is calling for a 50% increase in gasoline taxes to help pay for more gummint pork spending. The government already makes over 24 cents per gallon, while state and local taxes are also added in, and yet they castigate the oil companies for making “extreme profits” when those companies, who do all the work, only make about EIGHT CENTS PER GALLON! Who is making the “extreme profits” and needs a windfall tax?
Y’all ain’t gonna believe this. The Associated Press and Yahoo! News are actually reporting that there are lots of ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS living in gummint-paid-for public housing. The Crawfish is shocked at the allegation. Okay, maybe not, since those housing projects are filled with druggies, drug dealers, thugs, crackwhores, prostitutes, criminals of all types, and the rest of the leeches upon society. I still can’t find anything in the Constitution that authorizes one penny of taxpayer money for those projects.
In related news, if you give a bunch of welfare lowlifes free housing in better communities than they came from, they will probably turn the better communities into clones of the ones that the just left complete with drugs, prostitution, and no respect for people and property. If the better communities’ police forces crack down on the leeches, they will get sued for racism. The Crawfish’s solution? End all unConstitutional entitlement programs NOW! Tell the leeches to support themselves or die off.
This bit of news comes from the “I saw this coming a mile away” files. All of the film critics, liberal film critics (but I repeat myself), and homosexual film critics (again repeating myself) are saying that the best picture of the year, best actor, and best supporting actor awards need to go to a film that is “an American Classic” (Rolling Stone Mag) and “A rousing experience!”(Newsweek, whose critic must have been aroused by the subject matter). I knew when I saw a movie being made about the iconic martyr of the extreme leftist heterophobic agenda, Harvey Milk, that it would be hailed as a movie that should be MANDATORY for all school kids to see, and as the most wonderful movie since “Citizen Kane.” It is all part of the liberal agenda to make homosexuality a good and normal thing, since it is completely against all religious texts and all morality. Of course, most of the films that the “critics” say are wonderful, the American people rightfully say SUCK! When has Sean Penn done well portraying anything but a stoner (“Fast Times at Ridgemont High” and “The Falcon and The Snowman”)?
By the way, The Crawfish gives a hearty THUMBS UP to “Yes Man,” starring Jim Carrey and Zooey Deschanel. It is the kind of flick that us normal (well, as close to “normal” as The Crawfish gets) movie fans can enjoy.
If you don’t believe that making homosexuality something to be celebrated and praised is part of the liberal agenda, just check out what Obama’s Secretary of Education nominee tried to do in Chicago.
Speaking of the radical homoagenda, there’s a proposal before the state bar of Arizona to make lawyers swear to not oppose the homoagenda if it is against their values.
I hope Israel takes the advise of Rabbi Dr. Michael Ben-Ari in regards to the Gaza battles. Of course, 55% of American Democrats say Israel should have tried DIPLOMACY in response to the rockets from Hamas. Friggin’ morons.
Meanwhile, another member of “Jews Who Hate Israel and Love People Who Murder Jews” has raised her voice to call Israel a “Nazi-state” but who really cares what Rosanne Barr says anyway?
While the battles between Israel and the people who refuse to recognize Israel and have pledged to destroy her wages on (how can you have a cease-fire or treaty with a group that refuses to recognize you and your right to exist?), the word from the Obama camp is, “There is one president at a time and we intend to respect that.” Of course, while this sounds good and proper, it really means that Obama has one last chance in his career to vote “Present.”
Don’t y’all remember when liberals supported separation of church and state? Not when the churches are all praising The Messiah, The Golden Child, The Chosen One, Dear Leader!
At least there are five states out there who support the rights of workers against unionization. Now if only the rest of the red states would follow their lead…
Here’s another complete shocker for y’all. The Clintons sold political favors and YOUR TAX DOLLARS to one of her constituents. I know…y’all are floored by the news. The good news for Chillary is that she’s not under a grand jury investigation for this action, unlike another of Obama’s Cabinet picks, Commerce Secretary nominee (until he withdrew this week) Bill Richardson, who did the same thing in New Mexico.
Hat tip to blogger SGT. Relic for this link. Are you an embarrassment to Obama? I scored a whopping 13, and am therefore a complete embarrassment to Dear Leader. I doubt any of my readers will score much better.
When it is too cold for a ski race in Alaska, you know that Glo-Bull Warming is a bunch of Shi’ite. Rats. There goes the CAIR watch list again.
I can’t believe that this even went to court in Californication. What is so tough about understanding the word ILLEGAL???
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.
