    Is Obama a closet conservative?

    IMO, like most Canadians, this Thomas Walkam wouldn't know conservatism if it bit him on his arse. Indeed, most Americans don't have a clue, as the last true conservative, small government president/Congress we've had was during Coolidge. Reagan was conservative, and made great speeches, but one...

    There Will Be a "Chicago Tea Party!" Ala The Boston Tea Party!

    He was invited to the White House - probably to be threatened. My guess is that one community activist doesn't like another community activist butting in on his turf.

    Hello I am wondering which company to put a truck on with?

    And some ppl like Mitsubishi cabovers. Personally, I don't know why I get laughed at when asking for crome for one on the cb. :confused: To each their own, I guess. I wouldn't take a Hino if it were given to me. Others feel the same about an Argosy. One is a work horse, the other goes uphill...

    Very simple. There are a good number of ppl who would cheat the system, whether legally, or illegally. I'm also one who is inquisitive as to the reason a big truck has a cripple sticker in the window. I'm sure there are very good reasons for most; but you have to wonder if EVERYONE who has one...

    Hey Cheri

    That letter is sad. Those animals are kinda like fetuses... both innocent, and neither has a say in their deaths. Sorry... didn't mean to make it a political statement out of this. But that's the first thing I thought of when reading that... could've just as easily been an abortion clinic the...

    concidering hiring a co driver.

    20%, before fsc, would be the norm. A higher percentage of accessorial charges (half of hand load/unloads, 1/3 to 1/2 of detention, etc) would be fair. Good luck on your search!

    Wow! Some Finally are Waking up!!

    Originally, it was set up so that 13 states (or 13 nations) were formed under a single goal. The federal government was formed to run things that affected all states. This would include a military, money, foreign trade and relations, etc. Today, if we were to do that, we would have 50 unique...

    how would you expect this relationship to end

    It just goes to show that everyone who gives 110% never see that extra 10 in their paycheck. :D

    Looking for A Coach. please help

    I'm not trying to get on anyones' case here... more words to consider if you're heading where Amer is now. The time to ask for guidance is not when you're at, or near, rock bottom. You need to ask when you first start in expediting, or at least when you start seeing trouble. Depending on Amer's...

    We Are Expediters.

    Reminds me of the song Big Mack... Pour me a piece of coffee. Pass me a cup of bread. You're the sweetest thing that I've ever seen, and there's a ringin in my head. Make my eggs a medium rare, over easy with my steak. I'm gonna buy you a farm in Texas, gal, if it takes ev'ry cent I make.

    Major loss in the battle against cheap freight!!

    OVM... I heard they charged that magical 36%, or whatever it is they take out of accessorials. Sure it's only 15%?
