    Bad journalism?

    Yes it surely does but the supreme court in the 19th century also said they can not directly tax the individual. This took another amendment to clarify that. Nevertheless the constitution does not allow the federal or state government mandating an individual to buy insurance or any thing else...

    Mich gives Free ride,,Truck drivers excluded

    If you ever get a chance to do a ride along with a cop, you can hear the crap first hand. One of the things I notice is people are too **** lazy to know what speed they are going, which means they are too lazy to look at the speedoit is called a violation. meter.

    Underage drinking

    Cheri, How do you address the cultural issue with parents who serve their kids wine during a meal? Isn't that the same thing or should we consider cultural issues like that off limits to the insane need to be a helicopter society?

    Bad journalism?

    Turtle, people think he is an absolute ruler of the country and one who makes the laws. This seems to have been going on for a few decades. This last president seems to be a good example, people and the press both have made it out as he can fix any problem - remember Obama's stash? Leo, the...

    Mich gives Free ride,,Truck drivers excluded

    We have issues here which has been caused by the problem people think it is a right to drive. The courts and the system has been poorly hacked up and stuck together and many times people pay a fine and let go. Where we need driver's training that is consistent, we don't have it - and where we...

    No need to fear Islam

    I'm still looking for the French style riots in the area. Aristotle, I think there is a movement afoot within the religion to keep a lid on some of these things. I think, just one of them thoughts I have, that we are never going to know what goes on behind the doors that being done to root...

    Underage drinking

    Leave it at 21. I would want to see the voting age to go back to 21 too. NO to any thought of allowing an active military person to drink at 18, it is the state who has the right to regulate the laws - not the federal government. If we are going to make exceptions, then where will it end...

    Bad journalism?

    Leo, There is a difference between being legally qualified and being qualified. I don't think in this case he isn't too far off of being not qualified to be president by todays twisted standards we have set and rather the country expectations of some leadership qualities that we have redefined...

    Saving private ryan

    With the idea that they were right and God backed the mission. As Pilgrim said I do not think this could take place today. The war itself would be an issue for much of the country, with the Media attacking the government and the people being somewhat numb to the realities of the world and...

    The Constitution is TOO OLD to have ANY Binding Power...

    1) The right to a useful and remunerative job in the industries or shops or farms or mines of the nation; 2) The right to earn enough to provide adequate food and clothing and recreation; 3) The right of every farmer to raise and sell his products at a return which will give him and his family...

    Mich gives Free ride,,Truck drivers excluded

    I think this shows the disconnect in the state. We have had a rash of serious accidents with those who got a lot of tickets and points and the system failed to protect the public. Some who lost their license and because the system allows them to get it back even after 'additional safe driving...

    Pilot Rewards Card and DOT Inspections

    I think many of you miss a very important point; Remember that the signature is your certification and you have to back it up. There is no warrant needed for them to prove otherwise and they can violate you for what you can't prove. There can be an assumption made you are lying and you have...

    What are you doing on the first day of 2011?

    Putting in more drains before things freeze up again. Sidewalk was a skating rink and the county still says it is a township problem and the township says it is a county problem, so in went the drains.

    Bad journalism?

    Well you really think that the powers in Washington (I mean the real power like those bureaucrats who run such great agencies like the Justice department or those who run the CIA, NSA and others) is going to take a chance in putting a president who is not born in this country pass the vetting...

    Pilot Rewards Card and DOT Inspections

    Actually both of you, I prefer not to worry about anything the DOT can do to me. BUT it is funny when you shake the tree to see who speaks up.

    Notes on Nationalism

    I just wished it was better formatted. By the way, I could not find his essay on the rearming of Germany and why it was a bad thing. I have a copy of it somewhere in print, but it is a good piece nevertheless. Also ... "I worked out an anarchistic theory that all government is evil, that...

    Pilot Rewards Card and DOT Inspections

    It's not scamming, I didn't add that I'm paying for the fuel. The driver doesn't have the card and I split the points with him by buying him food off the card. The 200 gallons don't fit in my truck but it does his. The card agreement does not say I have to be the driver of the truck. It is the...

    can 2 straight trucks run 1 semi load

    Yep, done it a couple times. I was the 'extra' truck in the bunch to cover the last 13 feet of a load. I got paid pretty well for it. Now the opposite happened to me too. I had a couple loads where they stuffed my truck full and put for pallets on a 53 foot trailer - we went to the same...
