Layout, You are forgetting on of the best things; The EPA has deemed co2 harmful to human life. The effects of this will be massive, I can imagine people who use solvents, like cleaning solutions will get hit hard, not to mention the manufacturers and of course transportation. Kenworth, made by...

I would say not to even talk about it, just do it and that's that. No need to get the "international community" involved with this mess. You did notice that the UN has been very effective, their Civil Rights conference was a shambles because Iran accused Israel of some crimes against humanity...

He don't want to run, just pee on fire hydrants. The marriage thing also has to do with the rights of the individual to do what they want with their own money, property and body. Meaning that outside of a spouse, even visitation in hospitals are limited and so on - see what I am saying?

No, I think tariffs will backfire on us, the best approach is changing how we actually do business here, starting with the tax system. The tariffs issue has been brought up before as a protectionist method to ensure jobs but it fails. If we move to an all inclusive tax system that puts the...

Such is true. Almost all of the tax increases have happened under a democrat president - Wilson, FDR, Truman, Johnson but Nixon in 1969 and Bush I.

Wouldn't in the pre-carter days, this would have been solved without our intervention through our 'friendly' relations with some of the neighbors of Somali? I mean I wouldn't mind if the CIA paid Ethiopia to invade Somali and take the country over. It would solve a lot of problems, like...

mjolnir131, That party is lost unless they get it together very fast. They are not just fractured but it is sad that so many people are not demanding real changes made in the party. They seem to be following the same BS line with Abortion, gay marriage and all of that without getting the clue...

Actually there are no rights as pirates, we have agreements and treaties in place to cover our rights to protect shipping, amazingly. As for NATO, so the Soviets are invading western Europe to get them involved?

Yea that is my point on all of this. Obama can’t/won’t do it. He is incapable of doing anything that is thinking outside the box. His immaturity has been proven by the Green economy crap he has been talking about. So history has shown us that shifting our economy is not the best thing to...

I thought they were the party of slavery? With the up and coming immigration reform 2.0, they will help modern day slavery really take hold in our country. It is so sad that people don't get that.

Hey Doug, try answering the question I asked in the second post before you have an orgasmic interlude over Obama and the great change that has hit the nation. Put into words with facts that we can all understand, not the media spin on things. Letzrock, I somewhat agree but deregulation...

Well Chet, now I get that part (thanks), it is not 'retraining' but refreshing one's skills. but nevertheless the likeness of me getting into a tractor is slim now anyway so what can I say. I see two things here, one is the experinced driver who has the proven capiblities and wants to do well...

Bush was not the cause of our economy going in the dumpster, the democratic congress is to blame. They were quick to condem the tax cuts, the refund checks and other Bush inititives when he got into office but If I remember right once the dems got control of congress, they thought handing people...

if it is white, it means that there is not enough heat in the cylinder to complete combustion. I had an ISB Cummins that had this problem and it turned out to be rings, there wasn't enough pressure to get the air hot enough to burn the fuel. What the mechanic should have done maybe before...

I don't get it, retraining for what? If you have experience, then you have experience and the only thing that these companies have to worry about is the guidelines from the insurance companies. It amazes me that some get licenses at all. Today we are at lunch and watching a truck trying to...

So the soviets are now in with the somali pirates and Western Europe is on the verge of being invaded by the Soviets?

Echoing the past - "reaching out to our enemies makes the US stronger" God help my country.

OVM, If you look at where the tarp money went to, how it was handed out and so on, I do expect not to see any of it in the future. The real issue here is that the Tax Payer's don't want to "invest" in anything. the mess was created by the politicians who were taking brides in the first place...

Well Layout, then I can not blame Minnesota or Indiana, I blame the truckers who are not doing their part to be involved in the political end of the business.

1 - the code readers used by the OPP will not damage the ECM - period. There are a lot of bigger things to worry about. 2 - it is not an ODB-II system, so it takes a certain reader with the proper adapter to work, there are four plugs (which can't be used wrong) for trucks and only one for...
