The Weekly Claw 8-19-08
Another Tuesday rolls around and The Crawfish has found a lot of things to write about over the past week. Where to begin……..
We’ll start with a real shocker. Obama snubbing the troops again. Like you really expected anything else from him.
Vacations are more important than troops
This from Crawfish’s Swamp at Townhall.com on Thursday, 8-14-08
Americans Are Stoooopid!
That’s what Obama and his minions believe. Yesterday, they trotted Virginia Governor Tim Kaine out in front of the cameras to say this:
“The Senator’s goal was to be tough and smart,” Virginia Gov. Tim Kaine said of Sen. Barack Obama, D-Illinois, “and so when the action (in Georgia) happened on Thursday, he immediately called for a ceasefire, condemned the unwarranted use of force by Russia. It was a bad crisis for the world. It required tough words, but also a smart approach to call on the international community to step in — and I’m very, very happy that the senator’s request for a ceasefire has been complied with by President Medvedev.”
a) He had no goal of being tough and smart. His first actions were to continue his vacation and say that the UN should handle the situation.
b) Obama never made a serious call for a ceasefire, and the one that Putin’s puppet agreed to (with fingers crossed behind his back) was brokered by French President Sarkozy. (Imagine that…the Soviets lied to the French about their military intentions and the French believed them)
c) Kaine was obviously sent out there as part of his audition to be The Messiah’s Vice President. If he is able to get the mainstream media to report more Messiahlies and the American people to believe this tripe, then he might be worthy to sit at Obama’s right hand.
d) The ceasefire agreement signatures weren’t even dry before the Soviets reneged on them.
Meanwhile, as reported on Thursday, 8-14-08, the Soviets believe that the ceasefire meant that the Georgians would stop fighting, but they were free to continue. For those who actually believe that Georgia started it without it being a set-up, notice that the Soviets are saying that Georgia’s borders from before this Soviet invasion are null and void. Looks like Obama’s ceasefire claims were a bit premature, as was George W Bush’s claim that Putin is a good guy.
USSR’s foreign minister Sergey Lavrov declared Thursday that the world “can forget about” Georgia’s territorial integrity, and American and Georgian officials said the Sovs appeared to be targeting military infrastructure — including radars and patrol boats at a Black Sea naval base and oil hub.
The White House responded, but then again, what can we really do about it? “Our position on Georgia’s territorial integrity is not going to change no matter what anybody says,” White House press secretary Dana Perino said Thursday. “And so I would consider that to be bluster from the foreign minister of Russia. We will ignore it.”
This has the possibility of getting really bad for Georgia. The US isn’t in any position to really do anything to prevent a full takeover, or partial takeover, by the Soviets. The Europeans are not going to do anything, because they are fully dependent upon the Soviets for oil and natural gas. The Europeans don’t want to freeze to death this winter.
Oh, and before anybody complains about the name of the country doing the invading here, yes, The Swamp’s official term for that nation has reverted to the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics.
Now about the set-up. The seperatists in South Ossetia and Abkhazia were supported, funded, and armed by the Soviets. Most of them have Russian passports, which is a violation of international law as they are legally citizens of Georgia. Technically, those passports are not valid. The Georgians were responding to activity by the seperatists, and when they acted, the Soviets were able to hit back with 5 divisions, plus naval and air assets, within a few hours. That doesn’t just happen. That kind of military action takes planning and time to put the action-ready units in position. Obviously, this was pre-planned.
Now back to vajoe-only parts of our regularly scheduled rant….
There is a reason why Red Nanny P-Lousy opposes drilling offshore and in ANWR. She is heavily invested in ALTERNATE ENERGY COMPANIES! Her tax forms filed this year show income of $100,001 and $250,000 from clean energy companies. She accuses the GOP Congresscritters who are staging their revolt on the House floor as “handmaidens of Big Oil”, so does that make her the house b***h of Big Wind and Big Solar? Will the mainstream media report this? Since you haven’t heard about this from anybody but The Crawfish, that answer would be “NO!”
Michelle Malkin Exposes Red Nanny
A State Assemblyman in Noo Joisey is calling on the socialist Governor to hold off on Glo-Bull Warming actions. It seems the assemblyman has actually read some of the FACTS that show we’re now in a cooling period. Of course, that means he is NOT a Dim-ocrat.
Stop The Corzine Insanity!
I really cannot make this up. The left has now COMPLETELY elevated Obama to Messiah status, far ahead of the Prophet Algoracle. Speaker Nancy Pelosi calls Obama “a leader that God has blessed us with at this time.”
We are truly blessed to be in the era of The Messiah.
If any of y’all are wondering why the younger generation is not as intellectually up to snuff as your’s is, and they believe that they should never fail, even when they are completely incapable of doing the job….This from dallasnews.com:
Public Schools Produce Democrat Voters!
And now from the world of sports, we have a story that is full of unadulterated BOVINE EXCREMENT!
Give the gold to the Chinagirl even though she’s too young to compete and had the same score as the American.
The Ukraine has responded to the Soviet Union’s blatant aggression in Georgia and their threats against Poland. Instead of cowering, they are offering to join into a missile defense agreement with the US, and they’re bringing in their Russian systems and satellites with them!
Take THAT Soviet Bear!

Geez Crawfish! Between the old Soviets rearing their ugly heads in Georgia and schools being required to produce uneducated students, it seems as if the socialists are taking over the world. Thankfully, Ukraine and Poland still remember what it was like and still have the spine to stand up to it all.
‘Speaker Nancy Pelosi calls Obama “a leader that God has blessed us with at this time.”’
I mean, what can you say? Do you suppose when she looks at Barry she gets sudden hot flashes?

If Obama is elected as Messiah, what would the VP be? He can’t be the Vice-Messiah, so would that make him High Priest? Just trying to figure all of this out.
BTW, didja see the Saddleback Forum? Obama struggled mightily to answer simple questions, while McCain was forceful and direct. It was a very impressive performance for McCain, IMO. On a related note, do the candidates know what is going to be asked in a debate? Because if they don’t, Obama could be in real trouble when having to answer questions without a prepared response.

I’ve got a link on the Saddleback transcripts. I’m going to make it a series at the Townhall Swamp.

Beachmom: Why do you think Pelosi has ‘hot flashes’ over Barry? Just because when he walks by she leaves a snail trail in her chair?
C-Fish: Evidently The Bear has just been in hibernation. It is time for Europe and NATO to step up on this one. If they don’t they deserve whatever they get. This is the greatest threat to Europe since 1938. America has tried to get help from Europe and received nothing but sneers and a few token troops for our efforts. They need a dose of reality and I think it is here. Americans have been taking up for the lazy b@5t@6ds for far too long. It is time they stood up for themselves.

Buck, the bear has the Euroweenies over a barrel this time. They get most of their oil and natural gas from the Soviet Union, and they don’t want to freeze this winter, since even they know in their hearts that Glo-Bull Warming is a farce.

The USSR is holding Europe hostage and as a result they will be able to spread their tryanny. The US is alone on this one and we have to support the countries who still have a pair. We can’t turn our backs on them. Poland and the Ukraine will need us and if we fail them we will pay a big price.
