With this libya mess, a lot of things seemed to have happened since it started that indicate that Obama or his staff wasn't all on board with it, from communication of events, to the lack of speaking to the American public (he can go on prime time for Japan but not going to war?) to how the...

I was listening to the BBC last night and they were interviewing one of the "rebels" who have been fighting the Libyan army. He made a comment about how the civilians were not being gunned down in the streets by the army but by the rebels. He was asked what he meant and he said because there is...

Where do we have another civil war going on? Where they kill town officials like police and prosecutors? Where there is a power play by those who want to remain in power? Where we have beheading, executions and other horrible crimes against men, women and children? Where over 30,000 people...

Since the Japanese disaster hit the air waves here in the US, many of the news outlets, idiot talk shows and so on have been covering it like it happened here. In some cases their action may have been more of a ratings gain than actual news reporting. CNN has sent a lot of people over to...

So I think the three to four hour programming of the Obama show, including the pre-prep rally run up and the post prep rally republican response (which in itself is very childish) is a waste of time for the country. I feel the state of the union rally is become nothing more a pep rally than...

Thanks for the sacrifices.

You know I like to see success, when it is legal and not screwing people over. In the past few years we have had a number of people who screwed people over to make money to be successful, one of them was Madoff. The problem is we don't pick our villains like we should. So here goes, the...

I won't say much about the CSA 2010 itself, a lot has been said and a bunch of fellow professional drivers have cried enough about how it will ruin them or how unfair it is. Well too bad, it is here and we have to deal with it. For me it is not about changing my habits or worrying...
