Well to answer most of your questions on why Google results suck sometimes it is simple. All most all results algorithmically based. Meaning Google doesn't know the difference in a crappy scrapper website to a high quality website like your own. It is is being fooled into thinking the scrapper is of higher quality than your website. This could be done in many different ways. Maybe these website is being clocked like you asked. Sorry but contrary to popular beliefs cloaking still works fine in Google. Maybe the scrapper website has better or higher quality back links than your own. Maybe the scrapper website was published around the same time your website was published and Google cant distinguish between which one is originally and which is a copy. Maybe the scrapper website domain is much older and is trusted more than your own.
Sure looking at these cases one by one it is frustrating for not only you, me and all the worlds regular searchers, but Google doesn't look at it this way. They simply figure the changes they make on a global basis is what works and as we can see it doesn't for many of us out there.
Now as for the search operators you are using these seem to be totally inaccurate and would not put stock in the results they spit out.
