    Rep. Ron Paul wins the most support for the 2012 Republican presidential nomination

    Re: Rep. Ron Paul wins the most support for the 2012 Republican presidential nominati As a side note... we need to rethink and reform voting rights in the United States. Maybe take a second look at age requirements. Then, establish reasonable voting rights for people not born in this country...

    Rep. Ron Paul wins the most support for the 2012 Republican presidential nomination

    Re: Rep. Ron Paul wins the most support for the 2012 Republican presidential nominati I like Ron Paul and will be voting for his son who is running for the US Senate here in Kentucky. Unfortunately, we live in a culture obsessed with youthfulness. As Ron Paul is in his late seventies...

    Delusions of grandeur are weird. Soliciting participants to commit acts of self-aggrandizement is weird. To think expediting is difficult is way weird.

    Strange roadkill

    $7 really isn't much incentive, is it? Anyway, the vultures were already on the ground having pork for dinner as I drove by. Not much goes to waste in the natural world.

    Strange roadkill

    If the javelinas weigh only 40-50lbs, then the larger one I saw might have been bloated and swollen from lying dead in the heat of the sun. Decomposition does weird things. With some 3,000,000 wild hogs in Texas, and a bounty of $7 per head, hunters should bring their numbers under control. I...

    Strange roadkill

    Yesterday afternoon I encountered wild boars while traveling between McAllen,TX and Laredo. I saw two of them about 10 miles apart. One was quite large, maybe 200lbs... the other looked half that size. Unfortunately, both were dead along the roadside. I had no idea wild hogs roamed this...

    On duty time includes waiting to be dispatched.

    It does. Any carrier that forces you to take a load is your employer.

    tjpOhio44... I must agree with OVM's advice. While your loyalty and friendship with the owner are admirable, you must look after your own interest first. It pains me to see your predicament. Buy yourself a good used van and sign on with a major carrier. With your work ethic, you deserve better.

    My carrier alerted me we have freight coming north to Laredo late Sunday/early Monday. One load bound for Chicago, one for Romeo, Michigan and one for Little Rock. I can be found near Laredo ready to snatch freight at exorbitant prices!

    "Don't ask, Don't smell."

    I am hearing from current servicemembers that the level of disgust is much higher than the polls suggest. If Obama actually repeals DADT, which we must assume he will, there will be an exodus from military service unlike anyone imagines. So swift and severe will be public backlash that it...

    "Don't ask, Don't smell."

    witness23... I answered this same question from you last summer in the thread "Goodbye Don't ask, Don't Tell." I served proudly in the US Navy during the Reagan administration. For a US president to homosexualize our military boogles the mind. Even if Obama succeeds in doing so, it will cause...

    "Don't ask, Don't smell."

    It means Obama's policies stink! Funny how presidents who have never served in the military are so hellbent on changing it to suit their purposes. This was totally predictable. Why do Democrats elect candidates with no experience? Take a look at their core constituency.

    What do you do this time?

    Obama obviously doesn't expect anyone to call him out when he lies or deliberately misrepresents the facts. He had better grow some thick skin as sharp and increasing criticism will be coming his way, particularly given Obama's propensity for saying things which aren't true. Supreme Court...
