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!
WARNING: Do NOT read this while eating your breakfast, lunch, dinner, or snack! In fact, after reading this, you probably won't want to eat for a week.
I know SACSTW fans expected this week's Hollywood Hall of Shame winner to be either Spike Lee or Roseanne Barr. In most weeks, you would have been correct. No devoted readers, this week's winner put the EWWWWWW in spew. This week's Hollywood HOs winner is Alicia Silverstone.
As if naming her spawn Bear Blu wasn't bad enough, she premasticates for her 10 month old son. (For KCMO public school students - Mastication: The process by which food is chewed or ground by teeth.) Premastication is where the food is chewed by one person and then spit into the mouth of another. Apparently, things have not been going well career-wise for Ms. Silverstone and she cannot afford a blender or food processor. For those of you with a stout heart and iron stomach, you can view the video below:
Here's what Ms. Silverstone, a vegan, had to say about this on her website:
"I just had a delicious breakfast of miso soup, collards and radish steamed and drizzled with flax oil, cast iron mochi with nori wrapped outside, and some grated daikon. Yum! I fed Bear the mochi and a tiny bit of veggies from the soup…from my mouth to his. It’s his favorite...and mine. He literally crawls across the room to attack my mouth if I’m eating. This video was taken about a month or 2 ago when he was a bit wobbly. Now he is grabbing my mouth to get the food!"
She had me at "drizzled with flax oil"... I really hope she is putting away the money she is saving by not buying MEAT to pay for the decades of therapy this poor boy is going to need. Ms. Silverstone, and I speak for everyone, please make any future movies/videos in which you star... "Spewless". I shudder to think the process she used to breastfeed.
Now that we are all indelibly scarred, I hope everyone has a wonderful meat-filled weekend. But please, everyone chew for themselves.
Amidst all the finger pointing, death threats, and general mayhem going on in Sanford, FL this week, let's not forget that meanwhile our constitutional republic has been fighting for its very life.
Recapping Obama vs the Constitution to this point.....
Round 1 saw the Constitution deliver a sharp jab to Obama, rocking him back on his heels. Dear Leader rebounded in Round 2, forcing his recess appointments past the Constitution's defenses. Bloodied but unbowed, the venerable champ now takes aim at the "transformational" upstart in Round 3- Obamacare.
After 3 days, the arguments before the Supreme Court on Obamacare have ended. Most observers in the court room have indicated it has been a very bad week for Dear Leader and the obamination that is the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act.
Monday arguments centered around whether the fee imposed on those who don't comply with the individual mandate is in fact a penalty or a tax. This is a critical point, as it gives the Supreme Court its standing to render an opinion. If the fee is deemed a tax, then SCOTUS can not rule on it until someone has actually paid the tax, which won't occur until 2014. If the fee is a penalty, then the court has the ability to rule on it now. Throw out the lawyer-speak, and let's examine those two words. A tax is a sum assessed based on a citizen's actions, ie the purchase of a vehicle, the earning of income, the ownership of a home. A penalty is assessed for a citizen's inaction, i.e. the failure to file a tax return, the failure to comply with local codes, etc. If we allow the government to "tax" us for actions we don't take, then we have lost what little freedom we have left.
Tuesday was the real centerpiece of the case, with discussions of the constitutionality of the individual mandate taking center stage. U.S Solicitor General Donald Verrilli argued Obama's case. Undercover SACSTW correspondents were able to smuggle out video of Verrilli's appearance before the court, Verrilli is the one in the white trunks...........
The Obama administration maintains that the individual mandate is permissible under "the commerce clause" of the U.S. Constitution (Article 1, Section 8). The clause reads.."[The Congress shall have Power] To regulate Commerce with foreign Nations, and among the several States, and with the Indian tribes;". Commerce of course, is economic activity. Buying, selling, manufacturing, shipping, etc. Commerce is not economic inactivity. An individual who does not buy health insurance is NOT participating in commerce. It is as simple as that.
The individual mandate in Obamacare is the most venomous threat to our liberties that the progressive left has ever concocted. It was summed up beautifully by Justice Kennedy when he said that the individual mandate "changes the relationship of the government to the individual in a very fundamental way". You bet it does. If the individual mandate is upheld by the court, then the great American experiment is over.
Yesterday, the court heard arguments about the "severability" of the individual mandate. In other words, if the mandate is properly struck down as unconstitutional, does that invalidate the entire Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. Of course it does. Some on the left would have you believe that the individual mandate can just be "carved out" of Obamacare, leaving the rest of its odious and onerous provisions standing. That's like the car dealership telling you they can lower the price of your new car by selling it to you without wheels. The mandate is what allows Obamacare to function, without it the entire bill must be abandoned.
Make no mistake folks, this is it. This is the fight for the very existence of the American way of life that Barack Obama has been itching for since he said this 5 days before the 2008 election..
The future of our nation, the oceans of blood we have shed for our freedom, the chance for our children and grandchildren to live as free citizens of the greatest nation on Earth, all of this now hangs in the balance.
When did the civil right movement go off the rails? Why is there not a single current civil rights leader for children to look up to? Most importantly, has anyone let Bill Belichick know that he is the new face of civil rights?
I don't know the answers to any of those questions, but I have heard the obvious death rattle of one of the most important movements in American history.
Fashion Trend-setter or Civil Rights Leader?
I do not know the cause, but I can give you the symptoms. The movement that began with such visionaries as Rosa Parks, Medgar Evers, and Martin Luther King Jr. has been entrusted to the self-serving and corrupt hands of those like Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton. People who are more interested in the sounds of their own voices and lining their pockets than the welfare of those they claim to represent.
Perhaps it is a result of the success of the early luminaries. What did all founding civil rights leaders have in common? Sacrifice and risk. They all sacrificed and exposed themselves to incredible risks. Obviously, some even to the point of death.
What risks do today's civil rights "leaders" face? Fire hoses, lynch mobs, National Guardsmen, assassination? I have heard that Al Sharpton faces the possibility of a stern talking-to from the empty suits at MSNBC. The horror! Spike Lee faces criticism for posting the INCORRECT address of George Zimmerman for justice seekers (vigilantes) to exploit. (I hope the poor woman whose address it is sues his ass off!) I'm sure he did it so that the justice seekers (vigilantes) would know where to deliver their petition entreating Mr. Zimmerman to confess to murdering Trayvon Martin in cold-blood. And of course, the fearless Lebron James and the Miami Heat basketball team. Those brave souls really went to the mat for their dangerous political stance. They took a team picture in *gasp!* hoodies!
There is very little common ground between George Clooney and myself politically, but he has my complete respect concerning his work to help stop the true Holocaust that is happening in the Sudan and Dafur. This is a tragedy on an unimaginable scale and his work is to be greatly commended. Unfortunately, there is little monetary or political captial to be gained fighting for this cause, so Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, and Spike Lee are unsurprisingly unmotivated to take up its banner.
Such is the sad state of affairs for the once shining civil rights movement. But maybe this is a good thing. Perhaps the necessity of a separate civil rights movement for blacks no longer exists. Of course racism still exists. In some form, it will always exist. But maybe, just maybe, America has matured to the point where, the majority of the time, we only have to worry about people's rights. And you know, I think that would be a very good thing.
*Editor's question: Does anyone with three active brain cells actually believe that no one in the Sanford, Florida police department or district attorney's office has any sense of self-preservation? As I state later in this post, I do not know what happened between Trayvon Martin and George Zimmerman. A nation-wide campaign of hysteria is demanding the arrest of George Zimmerman and yet he has not been arrested. The question is, why? The pressure on the law enforcement agencies of Sanford, Florida must be immense. The president is comparing Trayvon Martin to his much-beloved fictitious son for goodness sake! So again, we need to ask, why? I bet Sanford officials would LOVE to arrest George Zimmerman and throw him in shackles immediately. Unless they are willingly sacrificing themselves for George Zimmerman, I would think the evidence corroborating his story would have to be compelling. We shall see. And now on with the show!
Prejudice and stereotypes are GOOD! They save lives every day. Before we get started, lets take a look at the definitions of prejudice and stereotype:
Prejudice (noun)
1. opinion formed beforehand or without knowledge
Stereotype (noun)
1. A conventional, formulaic, and oversimplified conception, opinion, or image.
With the PC Liberal propaganda campaign, these terms have come to have extraordinarily negative meanings. However, without prejudice specifically and stereotypes in general, we would struggle to make it through the day.
Let's start with an example of how prejudice and stereotyping keeps us safe. You are travelling down a 4-lane interstate. You anticipate passing, on the left, a slower vehicle going the same direction as you travelling in the right lane. The vehicle in the right lane turns on its left turn signal indicator. You slow down and do not attempt to pass the vehicle in the right lane. Why? Because you "pre-judge" that the car in the right-hand lane is going to move in front of you and obstruct your ability to safely pass them. From previous experience, you have "stereotyped" cars that have on their turn-signal indicators. Does this mean that the car is actually going to move into your lane? Of course not. But your experience has taught you that this is the most likely scenario.
Does this make you a bad person? Are you unfairly judging the car in the right-hand lane? I mean, just because 95% of cars with their turn-signals on actually turn, doesn't mean that ALL cars with their turn-signals on will turn.
Here is a more specific scenario. You are walking down a city street late at night. You are following a black man in a three-piece suit carrying a briefcase. He turns to face you, sets his briefcase down, says "excuse me", and reaches in his jacket pocket. Are you frightened or alarmed? I wouldn't be. Why? Because I have "prejudged" and "stereotyped" people in suits, with briefcases, and that say "excuse me" to not be threats.
Now say that same black man is wearing a hoodie, baggy jeans, and is carrying a paper bag. He turns to face you, drops the bag, says "Yo!", and reaches into the pocket of his hoodie. Are you frightened or alarmed now? I would be.
Was my reaction based on race? No, it was base on cultural prejudice and stereotypes. Was it even right? Perhaps not. Maybe the black man in the suit was Barack Obama planning to tell me he was raising my taxes, shipping guns to Mexican drug cartels, and generally ignoring the parts of the constitution he finds inconvenient. Conversely, perhaps the black man in the hoodie was pulling out a piece of paper with an address and asking for directions. The human brain uses past experiences and knowledge to evaluate the most likely outcome and responds to that evaluation.
Now lets say that the man in the hoodie was going to ask for directions. However, based on my prejudice and stereotypes, I make the horrible mistake of pulling out a gun and shooting him due to fear. Was that a racially motivated "hate-crime"? Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, and probably Barack Obama would say yes! I would submit to you, devoted readers, that it would have been a culturally influenced terrible mistake. A mistake for which I should be punished, but should not be classified as a racially motivated "hate-crime".
Now I do not know what transpired between Trayvon Martin and George Zimmerman. Only George Zimmerman and Trayvon Martin were privy to that information. Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, and other civil rights "activists" portray Trayvon as an innocent upstanding young man who was just going home, and portray George Zimmerman as a racist who hunted him down and murdered him in cold blood. Some news outlets are telling a completely different story. Regardless of what happened, it was a tragic event.
What adds to the tragedy is that some people are using Trayvon Martin's family's, and George Zimmerman's, pain and suffering to bolster their reputations and forward their political agendas. Al Sharpton has done this before. Need a reminder? Google Tawana Brawley.
Regardless of the specific events, it's definitely comforting that bastions of peace, love, and good will, the New Black Panthers, are handling the situation with decorum and restraint. Their call for patience and understanding can be found here: NewBlackPanther.com
Fearful reactions based on cultural influence ARE NOT equivalent to racially motivated hate-crimes.
The state of California has a law on its books that states when an unlicensed driver is pulled over by police, their vehicle SHALL be impounded for 30 days. Pshaw! says the Los Angeles Police Department. LAPD Chief Charlie Beck has announced the department's new policy of ignoring state law. The LAPD will not impound the vehicles of unlicensed drivers as long as they can produce some other kind of ID. Of course, the vast majority of unlicensed drivers in Los Angeles are illegal immigrants. Chief Beck said the new policy was simply leveling the playing field, as many unlicensed drivers have low-income jobs and can not afford the fines associated with impoundment. "It's about fairness" said Beck. Glad to know that the LAPD is dedicated to leveling the playing field for......criminals. In related news, banks in LA will now be required to keep all cash reserves in a laundry basket in the parking lot, so as to "level the playing field" for bank robbers. Chief Beck and the 4 members of the L.A. Police Commission that voted in favor of the new policy should be relieved of their duties immediately.
Somebody alert Kobayashi!
The Texas Rangers will be selling hot dogs at their stadium this year. Not exactly earth-shattering news right? It is when the hot dog sells for $26! The Champion Dog is a one pound weinie, served with chili, onions, and cheese on a 2 foot long bun. The Rangers are also installing self-service defibrillator stations on the concourse.
A video of Barack Obama's next Secretary of Education has surfaced on Youtube. She is the one in the passenger seat....
Finally today, a big thank you to George Jarkesy and Dwayne Deslatte of georgejarkesy.com and the George Jarkesy Radio Show. They are helping spread the word about SACSTW on their website and broadcasts, Sahib and I are very appreciative! The George Jarkesy Radio Show is on every day from 4pm to 5pm ET in many markets across the country. You can also catch the show online at georgejarkesy.com, or on your smartphone via the TuneIn Radio app.
Vice-President Biden (aka The Gift That Keeps Giving) was at a re-election campaign stop in New Jersey this week when he broke out this little gem about the raid on bin Laden's Pakistani compound.
"You can go back 500 years. You cannot find a more audacious plan. Never knowing for certain. We never had more than a 48% probability that bin Laden was there."
Uhh, what? Did our Vice-President really refer to the bin Laden raid as the most audacious military action in the last 500 years? Before you libs scratch a Grand Canyon size furrow in your melon, let's define audacious...
from dictionary.com.....Audacious: extremely bold or daring, recklessly brave, fearles; Synonyms (that means words with the same meaning Professor Biden): courageous ,intrepid, dauntless, venturesome
I have no problem using any and all of those words to describe the men who carried out the raid on bin Laden, but to credit Dear Leader with the "most audacious plan of the last 500 years" is really a bit much, even for the human hyperbola Joe Biden. Yeah yeah, I know. Just look it up yourselves.
The Crew would like to humbly offer a couple examples of "audacious" military actions of the past that Professor Biden might want to learn about....
June 6, 1944: The invasion of Normandy involved landing 160,000 troops, and required the services of an additional 195,000 naval personnel and 5,000 vessels. Oh yeah, it resulted in the freeing of a entire continent from Nazi (the real ones) tyranny.
Dec. 25, 1776: General George Washington and his ragtag Continental Army cross the Delaware River under cover of night to surprise the Hessian troops at Trenton, New Jersey. I understand that General Washington went on to have a nice career in politics, but according to Dear Leader he didn't make the top 4 Presidents of all time. Seriously.....here's the video.
SACSTW readers, here is the first quiz from Professor Biden's Military History 101 class:
Which of the great military leaders pictured below is the most bold, daring, brave, and fearless?
Scary thought right? The very concept that 7.5 million people actively seek your death is an idea that should give anyone pause. Well, the good news just keeps coming. They don't just want you dead, but your family, friends, co-workers, and neighbors as well. Who are these people and why do they want to kill me, you might ask. There is a single answer to both questions. They want you dead because they are Muslim and you are not.
This is the "Moderate" 95.5%.... ?
I can hear it now, "Whoa, Sahib! Islam is the religion of peace. Dear Leader Obama says so! Even GWB said we are not at war with Islam. It's just the Islamist terrorist whackos that want us dead. Besides, Christians had the Crusades and the Spanish Inquisition. (Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition!)" Excellent points all. However, the rest of the world seems to have moved beyond the 17th century, perhaps it is time for the Muslim world to do so as well.
Time for a remedial math lesson. I'll keep it simple for KCMO public school attendees. Depending on the source, there are conservatively 1.5 billion Muslims in the world. Say one half of one percent of those Muslims are Islamist terrorist whackos, (hang on while I do my guzintas, always wanted to be a double naught spy or a brain surgeon not a mathematician) that gives us a nice round number of 7.5 million certified Islamist terrorist whackos. I'll give that some time to sink in.... Even if my estimate is off by a factor of 10 (which I sincerely doubt), that's still a whole lot of people seeking our demise.
Liberals and CAIR would say that I'm being an incendiary Islamaphobe. Well, let's just take a stroll down memory lane and take a look at some of the highlights of the followers of the "religion of peace", shall we?
28 Deaths and 100s wounded in protests over the light toasting of a couple of Korans
Over 90 Iraqi youths stoned to death because they had "emo" haircuts
50 Coptic Christians killed in Egypt in 2011 because they're Christian
100 deaths as a result of protests initiated by cartoons depicting the prophet Mohammed
Acid attacks on women
Homosexual beheadings
Honor killings
Guess what people? These are not the result of terrorist attacks! These incidents have been committed by the "moderate" 99.5% of the world's Islamic population. And we are surprised that they do not display outrage when the Islamist terrorist whackos kill a bunch of people in a terrorist attack?
A perfect example of the dichotomy between the Western and Islamic world is the difference in how each group reacted to recent events. Twenty-eight Americans were murdered in Afghanistan because a couple of books were burned. The majority of the Afghani people have no problems with that. Sixteen Afghani civilians are killed by ONE soldier, and the Western world is appalled and saddened.
So what can we do? The free nations of the western world can stand up against the tide of "creeping shariah" and political correctness that emboldens those who seek our destruction. If you want to immigrate to one of our countries for a better life, great! You become an American, Canadian, or citizen of the UK. You support your country and your fellow citizens, regardless of the god you or they pray to. You do not demand special treatment or exemption from the laws of the countries you now call home. On this, we must insist.
Our tolerance has become a symbol of weakness. The welfare of the many must no longer be sacrificed to the will of those who wish us harm. You are with us or against us. Treat your neighbors with respect and dignity and they will treat you likewise. Feel free to worship as you wish and allow others to do so as well. Otherwise, no quarter will be asked and none will be given. And if you don't like it? Allah be with you, because no one else will be.
Let me get this out of the way before anyone misconstrues this post...
I am a staunch defender of Israel and the Jewish people. The Jews are God's chosen people. You mess with them and you experience "grief and woe of Biblical proportions." (Pun intended.) Don't believe me? How are those Egyptian, Babylonian, Chaldean, Persian, Roman, British, and Third Reich empires working out for everyone?
The Nazi "Final Solution" to the "Jewish Problem" is probably the most definitive example of evil incarnate in modern times. Followed closely by communist/socialist stalwarts "Smoking" Joe Stalin and Mao Zedong re-educating their own people to death.
That being said, can we please ease up on the whole Nazi thing? It is getting old and tired. When Rush came up with Feminazis, at least he was original. The Soup Nazi was hilarious on Seinfeld. I affectionately refer to friend of SACSTW, Rabbit, as the Grammar Nazi. But really, enough is enough.
Quit referring to every person you disagree with politically as a Nazi. Last week, "Hanoi" Jane Fonda and her has-been buddies chastised Rush for being mean and calling Sandra Fluke names, and then proceeded to call him a Nazi. Not that I expect anything less from the comedically challenged left, but come on! There has to be at least one creative and funny mentally deranged lefty out there. (And no Bill Maher, you are not that person.)
Be funny. Be original. Think of something new. For my conservative friends, the possibilities of satirical comparisons for Obama and his minions of insufficient light are legion. Quit being lazy. Come up with something fresh.
Next item on the Nazi agenda: Can we please stop the self-flagellation every time someone makes an oblique reference to WWII Germans? Case in point, David Axelrod (no, I'm not a fan) referred to Romney's media campaign in Illinois as a Mittzkrieg. This was actually quite clever in my opinion. But right on cue, people have immediately called on him to apologize for making Holocaust references.
Huh? As an amateur World War II historian, Blitzkrieg is the anglicized word for "Lightning War". It is a military strategy, and not even one originated by the Germans. It is an all-motorized force concentration of tanks, infantry, artillery, combat engineers, and air power. The first European general to introduce rapid movement, concentrated power and integrated military effort was Swedish King Gustavus Adolphus during the 30 year war. Yes, the Germans did use the strategy in WWII, and yes, the Germans also perpetrated the Holocaust, but the connection between German military strategy and the systematic mass-murder of Jewish civilians by the German government is tenuous at best.
Holocaust survivors survived HITLER! I imagine they are made of sterner stuff than to let a tangential reference to WWII German military strategy wound them. HOWEVER, if any Holocaust survivors are emotionally hurt by such references, the person making them should apologize. They have dealt with enough. But I want to hear it from them, not from any political organization. Not even one I agree with.
I guess the moral of this story is: No more Nazis please!
The Crew humbly submits Cee Lo Green for this week's Hollywood HoS award. The hip hop "star" and judge on NBC's The Voice made an appearance at a fundraiser for Dear Leader in Atlanta on Friday. In the spirit of civil discourse and respect for the office of the President, Green gave a middle finger salute and dropped several f-bombs while "singing" at the podium. By the way, is it just me or does Mr. Green sing like he needs to buy bigger underwear? Here's the video:
A very interesting video of Attorney General Eric Holder surfaced at Breitbart.com over the weekend. From January 1995, the video shows then U.S. Attorney Holder talking about the need for an anti-gun advertising campaign in Washington D.C. While most of what he says is typical liberal folderol, there are a couple of interesting moments. The first occurs at the 2:30 mark, when Holder talks about needing influential people like "Jesse Jackson and Marion Barry" to get involved. This was AFTER Barry had appeared in his own fun little "how-to" video about smoking crack, AND done a stretch in a federal penitentiary. The second happens at 3:10 of the video, when Holder says we must "brainwash people into thinking about guns in a vastly different way". Hmmm. I for one am glad that most people don't think about guns the way the Attorney General does, or we'd all be selling them to Mexican drugrunners. Take a look for yourself:
I also found this great photo of the beginnings of AG Holder's career in law enforcement..............
Memphis Police Officer Dion Anthony is under investigation for allegedly having sex in his squad car while on-duty. In addition, the acts taking place in the squad car were broadcast over Anthony's department microphone, and could be heard by anyone with a police scanner. Sergeant Karen Rudolph told a local TV station that "in this instance it's possible he didn't follow proper procedure". The Crew wonders exactly what the sergeant is referring to......position? duration? dismount technique?
The Humane Society of the United States has filed a complaint against McDonalds and Smithfield Foods, provider of the pork used in the cult icon McRib sandwich. The HS is charging that Smithfield maintains its hogs under inhumane conditions. Maybe so, but the real take-home from this story is.....HOLY CRAP, THERE IS PORK IN THE MCRIB!!!!!
The organization was initially surprised and pleased to receive the large donation. The 2012 season was going to be tough, and every dollar they received would help. However, after some reflection and consideration by the directors of the organization, the money was returned to the donor. The board of directors decided they couldn't take a donation from an entity that degraded and dehumanized women on a regular basis.
Takes money from Maher AND throws like a girl!
Bravo you say! Finally the Obama 2012 SuperPac has reversed its hypocritical stance and returned the $1,000,000 donation it received from wretched misognynist Bill Maher. Well, not exactly. Dear Leader is keeping the money from the hate-filled Maher.
The organization I referred to is the Lennox (Ca) Little League. The cash-starved league that serves 300 Los Angeles area youth baseball players recently returned a $1200 donation they received from a neighborhood strip club. When word of their decision to return the strip club's money spread, the league was rewarded for its integrity by receiving an even bigger donation ($1600) from a local ambulance service.
It's nice to know that there are still groups out there for whom integrity comes before cash. Sad that we can't count the 2012 Obama campaign among them.
Apparently, the old adage that "you can't teach an old dog to love freedom" has been proven true once again. Perennial SACSTW favorite "Hanoi" Jane Fonda is this week's Hollywood HOs winner. Before we get into this week's vehemently anti-American activity, let me refresh your memories with a few blasts from her past.
Ms. Fonda gazing lovingly at a North Vietnamese gun crew
Jane with ex-hubby explaining how American POW's are being well-treated
In addition to these lovely images, I have always been extremely fond of this quote from her speech at the University of Michigan on November 21, 1970:
"If you understood what communism was, you would hope, you would pray on your knees that we would some day become communist."
She followed it up with this gem in a speech at Duke Univsersity:
"I, a socialist, think that we should strive toward a socialist society, all the way to communism."
So, fast-forward to March, 2012. This fan of freedom and liberty lover Ho Chi Minh's poetry, has decided that the first-amendment right of free speech should be revoked for those people she doesn't like. Jane, along with fellow aging activists Gloria Steinem and Robin Morgan, have put out a petition to have the FCC not renew the license of any radio station that continues to air the Rush Limbaugh show.
Devoted readers, not even I, your beloved Sahib, concentrating all my massive creative energies could have written something that matches this doozie from this triumvirate of moonbat loons:
"He promotes language that deliberately dehumanizes his targets,"
And as a Texas-sized asteroid of delicious irony hurtles towards their pin-like heads , they follow it up with:
"Like the sophisticated propagandist Joseph Goebbels, he creates rhetorical frames -- and the bigger the lie, the more effective -- inciting listeners to view people they disagree with as subhumans."
For those of you who struggle, as I do, with the "nuanced" liberal thought processes, the scientists at the SACSTW labs have invented The Universal Liberal Bombast to Sane Person Language Translator. Here is the translation of their statement:
"It was very mean of Rush to compare that young woman's actions to those of a slut and a prostitute. Calling people mean names de-humanizes them and shouldn't be allowed. Rush is a Nazi."
Thank you, thank you, thank you, Jane Fonda. As long as there are celebrities and politicians like you out there, we will never want for new blog material.
Because starting your own political movement seems to be all the rage, The Crew and I have decided to start our own. (Religion-wise, it made L. Ron a ton of dough) At first, we considered taking a page from macho-conservative stalwarts Spanky and Alfalfa.and starting the He-Man Woman Haters movement, but that didn't seem inclusive enough for us.
So today, Sahib and The Crew proclaim March 13, 2012 as "Founders Day" for the White Heterosexual American Males Only movement, or WHAMO! We have all sorts of fund-raisers and activities in the planning stages, but today we are sending a call for assistance out to all SACSTW readers. We need one of our more artistically inclined readers to design a WHAMO! logo. The best entry wins..... A WHAMO! t-shirt! And of course the eternal gratitude of Sahib and The Crew, total credit for the logo, and a free lifetime subscription to SACSTW (what? it's already free?) OK, a free t-shirt, all the credit , AND the eternal gratitude of Sahib and Crew. PLUS an autographed picture of the WHAMO! founders. I know, you all are at a loss for words at the magnitude of our largess. Entries can be submitted via email at: sacstw@gmail.com
With that business out of the way, we now extend an invitation for all SACSTW readers to join WHAMO! Simply post a comment below with the name, Twitter handle, or any other way you would like to be entered on the WHAMO! member rolls.
(huh? platform? we have to have a platform?) The Crew has dutifully informed me that we have to have a platform before anyone would want to join. I kind of thought the name, White Heterosexual American Males Only, was self-explanatory, but here goes:
We are fed up with people demanding special treatment
We don't care about your skin color, gender, who you sleep with, or who you pray to (or don't pray to). Please just get out of our faces about it.
We are sorry that our ancestors may have done bad stuff to your ancestors. We didn't do it and it didn't happen to you. Get over it.
We believe in Americans. If you insist on calling yourself an anything-American, you may not join.
If we say something unkind, mean, or down-right nasty about your family, you have the right to be offended. Anything else? Toughen up pansy!
If you are a liberal and find the name of our movement incongruous with our platform, ask a conservative friend to explain irony to you.
I hope that clearly defines the philosophies of WHAMO! JOIN TODAY! Invite your friends and neighbors as well. We will post the winning logo as soon as we pick one from the thousands of entries I'm sure will be soon pouring in.
The NAACP is taking their case against voter ID laws to the United Nations. The group will make a presentation in Geneva, Switzerland this week to the UN Human Rights Council addressing the NAACP's concerns that voter ID laws in the United States are discriminatory to black voters. I guess it makes sense. After all, the membership of the UN Human Rights Council includes such experts in voting rights as Cuba, Russia, Saudi Arabia, China, Uganda, and Libya. I think the NAACP may have finally met an organization that can match their own level of hypocrisy.
Speaking of liberal hypocrisy, the price for it is evidently 1 million dollars. That is how much Bill Maher contributed to the Barack Obama SuperPAC recently. You remember Bill Maher, the left-wing misogynist who spews vile commentary about conservative women. When informed of Maher's donation to his PAC, Dear Leader immediately directed the money be returned, saying "I am against all hate speech, including when it comes from the left.". Whoops! Sorry about that folks. We must have slipped into an alternate universe where Barack Obama is a man of honor and principle. Back here in the real world, the administration responded to Maher's donation by booking senior adviser David Axelrod to appear on Maher's HBO show.
Mrs. Crew pointed out an interesting blog to me this morning. The Christian Left blog has an article called "The Enemies Within: The 20 Most Dangerous Conservatives and Their Organizations" from last August. Quite frankly, I am outraged! Sahib and I aren't on the list! Obviously it is a complete sham! Uh, wait a minute. The article was published on August 5, 2011, a full 8 days before the Era of SACSTW began. I fully expect we will be included in the 2012 update.
It's been a while since we ran a video of a squirrel in a peanut butter jar, soooo...........
That's it for this installment of Monday Musings. Back to your bracket everyone!
PS- the first #1 to lose will be Syracuse vs KState in the second round.
Please be advised that the MOT-BCT is hereby activating Hate Crime Protocol A in the Kansas City division. This activation is in response to the following incident on 28 February, 2012. To wit:
A 13 year old minority student at Kansas City's East High School was burned by two older teens on his front porch. According to police reports, the student was followed home by the older students, and accosted on the front porch of his home. One of the attackers grabbed a gasoline can on the porch, splashing gasoline on the victim and the porch. Saying "this is what you get, boy", the other attacker used a lighter to ingnite the gasoline, causing burns to the victim's face. The two assailants then fled the scene.
Due to the obvious hate crime implications of this case, Protocol A is now active. The following measures will be initiated forthwith:
Local citizen agitator Alonzo Washington will go on Kansas City televison news, decrying the continued violence against minorities at East High School, and the lack of action on the part of the Kansas City Police Department.
As this hateful act occurred within the congressional district of Congressional Black Caucus Chairman Emanuel Cleaver, Representative Cleaver shall make an impassioned plea from the floor of the House to halt the violence. Representative Cleaver will meet with the victim's parents, and hold a series of town hall meetings in his district to discuss the continuing problem of hate crimes in urban Kansas City.
The Kansas City Star will continue to cover this story on a daily basis, emphasizing the hate crime aspects. The editorial page shall issue no less than 3 opinion columns calling for more federal spending to fight hate crimes, more tolerance for diversity, and an increase in funding for the Kansas City Public School District.
Kansas City Police Chief Daryl Forte will hold a press conference at which he will emotionally state how this case has affected him personally as a black man from Kansas City.
The U.S. Attorney for the Western District of Missouri will announce her plans to prosecute the offenders under federal anti-hate crime statutes.
Weekly candlight vigils and outpourings of community support for the victim are mandated.

Internal Memo #1458.479
FOR INTERNAL USE ONLY- DO NOT DISSEMINATE
Please be advised that the MOT-BCT is immediately canceling Hate Crime Protocol A in the Kansas City Division. Protocol A was initiated with IM #1458.478, this memo of cancellation supersedes all previous directives. Protocol A has been canceled due to the following new information received by the MOT-BCT:
The victim in the East High School attack is white.
The perpetrators in the East High School attack are black.
The complete quote (although not reported by the KC Star) from the attacker was "This is what you get, white boy".
Please note that the Ministry of Truth - Bureau of Journalist Oversight has been notified of the continuing coverage of this story at The American Thinker. The MOT-BJO has been instructed to take corrective action against any writer who continues to explore not just this incident, but the shameful racist environment at Kansas City's East High School.
Reminder: We have always been at war with Eurasia!
Tough day at work for the Crew. What with the mild winter we've had, it's getting harder and harder to find good baby seal clubbing ground. Anyway, I digress. I settle down in front of my computer, only to learn that the name of my country is now classified as a racist attack.
At a high school basketball game in San Antonio, the student section of the winning team apparently started chanting USA, USA, USA as the game wound down. For the record, the winning school (Alamo Heights High) is primarily Caucasian and the losing school (Thomas Edison High) is primarily Hispanic. Predictably, officials from Thomas Edison were offended and perceived the chant as racist.
Here is the issue being discussed on Fox News program The Five.....
At around the 7:30 mark in the video, Juan Williams compares the incident to one that SACSTW covered here. In that incident, high school students in the People's Republic of California were deemed to have been racially offensive to Hispanic students. Their crime...wearing Tshirts depicting the American flag. Unbelievably, Juan Williams equated that with "wearing gang colors". Let me tell you folks, if red, white, and blue are the new gang colors, then patch me in.
The take-home message about the USA chant from those who took offense is that the chant was out of context because the game was not an "international" contest. The game was between two schools located in the USA, with the students on both sides being Americans.
Hmmm, somebody better tell Rosalba Aguillon. Ms. Aguillon is a student at Thomas Edison High, and was interviewed about the incident by Fox News. She explained that she was offended "coming from a school that has mainly Mexicans. I feel that was wrong, they shouldn't have chanted that".
In fact, it is much ado about nothing. Sound engineers in the SACSTW research lab have uncovered the truth behind the chanting at Alamo Heights High. The students were simply celebrating Tom Vilsack's recent announcement of 1.2 million in federal grant money made available for rural Texans. That's right, if you listen closely you can hear the students lusty cry of USDA, USDA, USDA! It brings a tear to my eye to see youngsters so supportive of bloated federal bureaucracies. Touching really.
Gotta run for now, I'm going to head down to the creek and catch a mess of snail darters for lunch. Tasty little critters, but you need a bucket full to make a decent meal.
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
Just when The Crew and I had thought we had heard the last of Cavernous Trachea, it happened again. I was pulling the daily school planner out of Sahib Jr.'s backpack and I found an envelope addressed to SACSTW. In the envelope was a letter with a post-it-note on it. The post-it-note said, "Hello gentlemen! Here is the latest missive from Dear Leader Obama to his hero and inspiration, Karl Marx. Enjoy! Your friend, CT " This was the letter enclosed:
Dear Karl,
I don't care what anyone says! I did NOT have another "episode". Maybe my celebration was a little excessive, but once again my actions were misinterpreted. I probably shouldn't have done my Yosemite Sam imitation, snatched that Secret Service agent's gun out of his holster, and started shooting holes into the ceiling of the Oval Office, but I was just so darn excited. Things are really starting to come together.
Joe hasn't said anything incredibly stupid in the last 24 hours. (I wonder if he's in the country.) Moochelle is planning another vacation and is going to be on Leno so she hasn't been nagging me about smoking. The republicans are beating the crap out of each other in the primaries. Breitbart's death has delayed the release of his "Obama Gone Wild" video series at least for a while. Life is good! But you know what Karl? That's not what really has me revved up. I have accomplished two things I thought would never happen in my presidency.
My two biggest enemies, Rush Limbaugh and Benjamin Netanyahu, have really screwed the pooch. I think I've really snowed Bibi about Iran. I think I've lulled him into complacency by repeating "Give negotiations a chance! Give sanctions a chance!" over and over again. I never thought he would buy it, but I believe he has. He has to keep the rhetoric up to assuage his constituency, but I think I can stall him long enough that Iran will have nukes before Israel feels they have to preemptively strike. I am SO smart. But he's just the little Satan. I've scored my biggest victory against the Great Satan, Rush Limbaugh.
I can't believe Rush fell for DNC plant, "23" year old Sandra Fluke. I mean it was SOOOO obvious. She's a Cornell graduate for Pete's sake, and that's where I "went" to college. (Hee, hee, hee) Wait, no, I "went" to Columbia. Oh well, whatever. She was perfect with her "cherished" friend who lost her ovary due to the pernicious policies of the Georgetown administration. I can't believe no one thought to ask why such a champion of female contraceptive rights wouldn't chip in a few bucks a month to help a "cherished" friend in dire medical straights. Or why didn't her anonymous friend go to Planned Parenthood or any of the multiple free clinics in DC? Stupid conservatives. And then Rush takes the bait hook, line, and sinker by calling her a slut and prostitute. I couldn't get the talking points off the Media Matters fast enough. Five dollar a gallon gas, trafficking guns to Mexican drug cartels, the Volt going belly up, more "green" energy companies propped up by federal loans failing, who cares? Rush obliquely called someone a slut. This has been the best week ever.
Well Karl, I have to go. The doctors won't give me any more of those B12 shots that make me feel so good. Eric Holder has to sneak them to me down in the kitchen. If I don't take them, my unicorn, Stanley, doesn't show up for our evening rides on the South Lawn. Thanks for letting me share my awesome news with you.
Your friend,
Barry
I dug through Sahib Jr.'s backpack looking for more clues as to the identity of Cavernous Trachea. All I found were some gumdrops in the bottom of his backpack. Sahib Jr. hates gumdrops. Hmmmmm....
President Obama will hold a press conference, his first in almost 4 months, today at 1pm EST. Although it might seem strange for Dear Leader to hold a presser on Super Tuesday, it makes perfect political sense. On the day when GOP voters in ten states will go to the polls to help select his general election opponent, Obama is doing everything he can to continue the fabricated furor over "Contraception-gate".
While Obama's introductory statements will be about his meetings with Benjamin Netanyahu, he will be salivating in anticipation of the first Sandra Fluke question. Then the bashing and demonization of the GOP in general and Rush Limbaugh in particular can continue unabated.
Unfortunately, SACSTW will be at the conference in spirit only. That hasn't stopped me from formulating a list of questions I would like Dear Leader to address.
1) Do you believe that voter intimidation should be allowed at polliing places, as long as it is conducted by large black men carrying blunt weapons?
2) Do you agree with your Justice Department's decision to withhold significant exculpatory evidence from the defense in the ethics trial of former Senator Ted Stevens?
3) Do you believe that the Republican Party is actually waging a war on women as postulated by the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee?
4) Do you believe that Speaker of the House John Boehner and U.S. Representative Eric Cantor are, in fact, non-human servants of Satan?
5) Do you believe that members of the Tea Party should "go straight to hell"?
6) Do you believe that Laura Ingraham is a slut?
7) Do you believe that Michelle Malkin is a "big mashed-up bag of meat with lips"?
8) Do you believe that Sarah Palin is a profoundly stupid twat?
9) Do you believe that S.E. Cupp should have been aborted by her mother?
10) Finally Mr. President, and most importantly....What percentage of an American citizen's income should he or she be allowed to keep after local, state, and federal taxation?
While our national media and central government were busy discussing the sexual appetites of a Georgetown University law student, you might have missed this "shocking" event over the weekend. As predicted in this space back in October, former KGB strongman Vladimir Putin has regained the presidency of Russia. Despite reports of massive voting fraud, including an admission from Mikhail Gorbachev that "these are not going to be honest elections", Putin is back in the office he previously held from 2000-2008. He now has another 6 years to work on his vision of a "Eurasian Union", a Moscow-led conglomerate of nation-states that he says will be based on trade, not ideology. Right. Just like the KGB was based on protecting the rights of individual citizens of the Soviet Union.
Dear Leader has recently been blowing his own horn about how American oil production is up under his "leadership". This is just another example of progressives taking credit for things they have nothing to do with. Let's look at the facts as supplied by the Institute of Energy Research:
Oil production on federal lands in FY2011 declined 11% from FY2010. Oil production on state-owned and private lands increased 14% in the same time period.
Natural gas production on federal lands in FY2011 declined 27% from FY2010. Natural gas production on state-owned and private lands increased 28% in the same time period.
The Obama administration is woeful when it comes to getting American energy resources to its citizens. But hey, I'm sure they will do much better with your health care!
Senator Olympia Snowe (R- Maine) has announced she will not seek re-election in 2012. Her decision was bemoaned by Marjorie Clifton in the Huffington Post as "tragedy in Washington". Clifton called Snowe "the epitome of a good politician", citing as evidence that fact that Snowe was the only Republican senator to vote for Obamacare. Let's review....Republicans are good politicians only when they agree with the secular-progressive agenda for a central government dominated America. Got it.
I found this headline on the website of the Belfast Telegraph this morning...."Buried Alive Challenger Dug Up Dead". It seems that 24 year old Janaka Basnayake of Sri Lanka was attempting to set a world record for the longest time buried alive. After spending about 6.5 hours buried in a 10 foot deep trench, Basnayake was dug up and taken to a hospital where he was dead on arrival. Here's what I found most interesting. The article states that "doctors were not immediately able to determine how he died". Note to self....scratch Sri Lanka off the places to go when needing a medical condition diagnosed!
Oh, those wacky school teachers! New York public school teacher Melissa Dean recently had her 5th grade class write cards to her boyfriend John Coccarelli because she "thought it was a nice thing to do". How sweet. What she didn't mention to the students was Mr. Coccarelli is a guest of the New York penal system on a weapons possession beef, and was also charged in 2008 with possession of child pornography. Makes you feel all warm and fuzzy inside about the teaching profession, doesn't it?
Crewstradamus is at it again! About a month ago, I asked in this space "isn't it time to pull the plug on the Volt?". Looks like the powers that be at Obama Motors have come to the same conclusion. In a statement released by the government, er company, GM has announced it is halting production of the Dolt and "temporarily" laying off 1300 workers. At this time, production is scheduled to resume on April 24. A GM spokesman said "...we are still seeking to align our production with demand". With production now at zero, I'd say it is perfectly aligned with demand.
By the way, this week Barack Obama said he was looking forward to buying and driving a Volt "after he is no longer President". Well Dear Leader, I have good news and bad news for you. The bad news is it looks like you will have to buy a used Volt. The good news is it will only be about a year old.
Finally tonight, I leave you with this. SACSTW researchers have infiltrated GM's research and development lab where government scientists are hard at work on the company's green version of its classic Corvette. While we at SACSTW headquarters have lost contact with our agents, they were able to smuggle out this photo of the vehicle in development before presumably being captured by Obama's minions.
At least it has more luggage room than a Smart Car
Kanye West not only writes about hoes, he is one. He is this week's Hollywood HOs winner. Who can forget his kind and gracious treatment of that undeserving tramp, Taylor Swift?
"Gimme that!"
Well Kanye has been in the giving mood the last few years. The Kanye West Foundation dolled out over one million dollars between 2009 and 2010.... to Kanye's buddies. A whopping $583 went to some discernible charitable organization over that same period. Well, you know the old saying... Charity begins with homies..
Show me the money! (said the IRS)
Mr. West, your humble, kind, and generous behavior has cemented my opinion of rap "artists" and rap as a "musical" genre. As I tell Mrs. Sahib and Sahib Jr., it's not music! It's chanting to a beat. I'm still holding out hope for Sahib Jr. Jr.'s taste in music.
News of the Funny and Bizarre:
Stories and Pics on the web that made me cringe or laugh this week. With all the crap going on in the world, I hope this lightens your load just a little.
