Conservative apex predators in a field of liberals and friends for over 30 years, Sahib and The Crew are now sharing their unique brand of political commentary and humor with the world. With political correctness and secular progressives running amok, the world needs them now more than ever. So return frequently and join Sahib and the Crew in their quest to Save the World!
In August of 1974, a Republican president resigned his office after his complicity in the Watergate affair surfaced. As is the case with many transgressions, the cover-up was worse than the crime (just like your momma has told you all these years). The President had ordered high-ranking members of his administration to lie to the American public about the break-in, and proceeded to do the same himself. Exactly 0 people died as part of the Watergate affair. In the past 3 weeks, Barack Obama has ordered high ranking administration members (SecState, UN Ambassador, etc) to lie to the American public about the murder of 4 Americans, including a U.S. Ambassador. Obama has then proceeded to repeat those same lies to the American public himself. At least Nixon had the courage to do what was best for the country by resigning.
Watching Obama 2012 downplay expectations for Wednesday's presidential debate has been quite smirkworthy. The best part was David Axelrod batting his sad puppy dog eyes at the media while lamenting Obama's lack of time for debate prep. He's just been too busy "governing the country" according to Axelrod. Unless blowing off heads of state and hanging with Mr. and Mrs. Knowles is "governing the country", I beg to differ Dave. But hey, it was a funny line.....
late update- John Kerry joined the Obama sympathy club over the weekend, sniffing that it's just not fair that Barry can't properly prepare for the debate, after all "he's got a day job".
Remember Amanda Clayton? She was the Michigan woman who gained notoriety earlier this year after it was discovered she was receiving food stamps despite having won over $700,000 in the lottery. Sahib covered her story brilliantly here. I can hear you now, um...Crew...why are you referring to Ms. Clayton in the past tense? The answer is....because she was found dead of a drug overdose in a Detroit house over the weekend. I will not revel in the death of Ms. Clayton, I will only comment that karma is in fact a bitch.
Speaking of trips down memory lane, one gas station owner did just that recently..... Actually the day Obama took office gas was $1.67 at my neighborhood station.
Weapons obtained from Holder Arms and Ammo (aka the U.S. Justice Department) have been linked to a 2010 massacre of 16 people in Juarez, Mexico. Many of the victims were teenagers attending a birthday party. Speaking of resigning from office......are you listening Mr. Attorney General? Read more here.
Do you really want to know?
Chinese cuisine is was one of my favorites. That is until I read about the Red Flower Chinese Restaurant in Williamsburg, KY. The restaurant has been cited for serving road-kill after a customer observed employees wheeling a mangled deer into the kitchen. The owner's son has admitted to picking up the deer along I-75 outside of town. The owners claimed they "didn't know we couldn't do that". Ugh. Maybe the health department should have been concerned about the Red Flower's menu, featuring General Tire's Chicken, Moo Shu Possum, and Crab Raccoon.
People wonder why we heartless conservatives hate food stamps and other public assistance programs. Yes, we hate poor people, non-white people, non-American people, non-heterosexual people, women, children, baby seals, trees, and the planet in general. Conservatives (males and females) take great pleasure in polluting the earth, clubbing baby seals, starving children, and keeping all non-white, non-rich, non-Anglo-Saxon, non-American, non-heterosexual, non-males subservient to white, rich, Anglo-Saxon, American, heterosexual, males.
But these are not the reasons we hate government assistance programs... Parasite of the Year, Amanda Clayton, is why we hate government assistance programs. Ms. Clayton is 24 years old, unemployed, and lives in an small home in Lincoln Park, Michigan. Ms. Clayton is on food stamps. You might think, "Gee, this is exactly the kind of person who needs a helping hand. She deserves tax-payer funded food stamps."
What you may not know, is that Ms. Clayton won $1,000,000 in the Michigan state lottery last fall. Unfortunately, poor Ms. Clayton did not actually receive $1,000,000. After taking a lump sum and paying taxes, she received the pittance of a little over $500,000. For you KCMO public school attendees, that is $100,000 a year for the next five years. Tax free. Despite her windfall, Ms. Clayton continues to receive (and use) $200 a month in food stamps.
When asked if she felt she deserved and it was right to continue to receive food stamps, this was her reply:
“I feel that it’s okay because I mean, I have no income and I have bills to pay,” she said. “I have two houses.”
You can view the news story of her plight in the video below:
I am a realist. I understand that any government assistance program, no matter how well run, will have fraud and abuse. Although I believe that everything that can be done to limit these things should be done, I am willing to except some degree of fraud and abuse in the interest of helping people who truly need it.
What infuriates me is that this woman truly believes she "deserves" food stamp assistance because she doesn't have a job. Sadly, she is not really to blame for feeling this way. The liberal establishment has brain-washed people into believing they "deserve" to have the government take care of their every need. I mean poor Amanda has bills, two houses, and no job. It's her right as an American that the government takes care of her. It's not her fault that she happens to have $500,000 in the bank. The money comes from the government, right? It's not like it comes from people with children, bills, ONE house, and jobs. What do heartless conservatives expect her to do? Get a job?
Conservatives are continually accused of trying to keep the less fortunate repressed. When in actuality, what better way is there to keep them down than to convince them that their existence is completely dependent on the largess of those in power?
Until parents (I've given up on the public school systems) start imbuing their children with a work ethic and sense of personal responsibility, we will see more and more people like the parasitic Ms. Clayton. And stories like this will continue to push my blood pressure to the point where my brain is likely to explode.
I implore you parents to teach your children that no one "owes" them anything except the opportunity to work hard and accomplish great things in their lives. I really don't want my brain to explode. Mrs. Sahib will make me clean it up.
Editor's note: Our good friend Carma pointed out that my satirical and hyperbolic statements about conservatives might be misconstrued by any liberals reading this post. I was illustrating the way conservatives are portrayed by the left. For any lefties reading this, you can look up satirical and hyperbolic at: www.dictionary.com
After a particularly invigorating evisceration of a liberal in the comment section of a news article, I was motivated to write this post. The article was in today's Kansas City Star and was titled, "Families Tackle Food Stamp Challenge. Eating on $4.50 a Day". My problem with the articled was that it was incredibly misleading as to the actual level of assistance received by food stamp recipients. The actual amount is $4.50 per day per person. For a family of six, that is $756.00 a month. We don't spend half that monthly in my family and we do not qualify for free school lunches like all food stamp recipients would.
After bashing him about the head and shoulders for a round or two of comments, I cut to the chase and asked him:
HOW MUCH?
How much of what I make should the government "allow" me to keep? GIVE ME A NUMBER. What percentage of what I earn should I be "allowed" to keep?
He accused me of changing the topic, so I answered all his questions and asked mine again. He responded with:
"I don't know what I think you should be 'allowed to keep'. I'm not an economist, but I do know for a fact that of all the money you pay in taxes most of it doesn't pay for food stamps."
And there you have it devoted readers, the typical non-answer I get from liberals every time I ask that question and I've asked it dozens of times. The next specific number I get will be the first.
You might ask, "But why of why will they not answer your question Sahib? You are so soft-spoken and kind!" Here it is.... The big liberal secret..... A liberal will NEVER.. EVER... give you a number or percentage of your earnings you should be "allowed" to keep because....
They want to maintain the ability to always TAKE MORE.
That's their big secret. Spread the word. And if any of you reading are liberals, please feel free to shoot me a number. There's always a first time for everything.
