I didn't interpret any of your remarks as whining. You make the system work wonderfully for yourself. The incessant whining comes from those who sit in parking lots and watch loads get awarded to other carriers.

RLENT... the howls of protest coming from FedEx and Panther drivers are deeply rooted in jealousy. Because they willingly submit to arbitrary constraints, they wish for everyone else to be likewise limited. They cloak their protest in a pretense to "safety." In reality, their concerns are the...

OVM... it is good to see you are proactive in moving towards good health. Even the smallest improvement in overall health makes a difference. A sick or medically challenged driver could pose a greater risk to highway safety. I wish you, and all EO members, all possible success in achieving...

These are awfully strong words of condemnation. I challenge you to produce statistics backing up any carnage, any whatsoever, of expedite van drivers. I understand FedEx and Panther drivers are strangled by company policy. Yet, the facts do not show any truth to assertions that expedite van...

I was being facetious. We are not in a booming economy. The US is so far removed from real economic growth,it staggers the mind. Yes, there is some freight moving. Burden our struggling economy with fuel priced $3.50 to $4.00 per gallon and watch real despair settle in. The greed of oil...

We are enjoying such a strong, robust economic turnaround. Surely, we can absorb $3.50 per gallon for fuel.

Dr. Cassell will become a whipping boy to the Obama worshippers and a hero to physicians trying to operate as small businesses.

Good, bad or indifferent... let us hope no one ever passes mustard.

There was a time when conservatism was as popular in California as anywhere else in the USA. Demographic trends bring change. California is far afield from the political culture of most other states. How many states did Obama carry? Eleven, twelve or thirteen? California has nearly 60...

This is the wickedness of socialism: it destroys personal initiative. Socialism is a disincentive to enterprising individuals. It stymies commerce, it browbeats the human spirit. Capitalism coupled with a representative republic has done the most good for the most people. Yet, even this...

Banks generally operate at a profit. We are watching the Obama administration wage war on profit. Success is evil. Egalitarianism shall have its day. Since we cannot lift the poor up, we shall tear the rich down. Regardless of effort or ability, there must be equal outcomes.

I made the mistake years ago of vacationing in Florida during, what was unbeknownst to me, Gay Bikers Week. Oh, the trauma. Does this explain why a compass points north?

It is my sad duty to report: trannies happen.

Alas, too many thwappings for me. Today, I wait at home while my van receives a new torque converter, output bearing and bushings. Having owned and operated many Ford E350's, this is the first transmission problem I have encountered. Rather expensive.

The takeover of healthcare is just part of Obama's immaculate deception. Let the Democrats rejoice and be glad in it.

We Americans are being consumed by Big Government. Our lives' energy, work and wages are literally confiscated, consumed and controlled by Big Government. Regardless of which party is in power, an ever-increasing Big Government is our mortal threat. We cannot support the huge government we...

No one knows the full ramifications of the healthcare takeover. Many new regulatory agencies will by necessity spring up to promulgate new rules. All having the force of law. Most new law doesn't come from legislative bodies, but through regulatory agencies.

Better to keep our snarling First Lady busy lecturing fat kids than have her meddle with really important social issues.

The conservatives' sweet revenge could be this: once the GOP regains majority control of the House of Representatives in November, they will simply refuse to fund the new healthcare initiatives. Without funding, nothing moves forward. Our Founders were smart to put so many checks and balances...

All joking aside, Barack Obama is no political hitchhiker. We gave him the keys to the car in Nov 2008 and he knows exactly where he wants to take this nation. Obama is taking us to a very, very bad place. Obama's vision for a new America frightens those who hold traditional values. I am...
