    Desmond Tutu calls for Blair and Bush to be tried over Iraq

    They admitted they had them and moved them. Don't forget, they used them in Kuwait.

    Desmond Tutu calls for Blair and Bush to be tried over Iraq

    As far as the US, you are going to have to sue all of Congress for authorizing the war. Just like Bush, they were operating with faulty intelligence information.

    This tell you anything.

    Maybe. Quite a few of those barriers should have never been put in place to begin with.

    60/40 Split in a straight?

    In most cases, the 60/40 split will pay better to the driver unless a vehicle has poor mileage, doing constant dh over 30 percent, or a carrier that has sub par FSC program. Really is about that simple. With regards to only paying 55 percent, several fleet owners that I am aware of have cut...

    Romney as Commander and Chief

    Neither party has anyone with prior military experience. We have already seen Obama's performance. Will Romney be the same? Hard to tell. Most of it will be answered by who he puts in those key positions. Hopefully, there won't be any more "apology tours".

    CLint Eastwood to speak at the Republican Convention

    Have to admit, it was pretty funny and original. Based on that skit, there is now a new "Invisible Obama" page on twitter. It is getting more hits than his regular site. He has to be happy.

    Paul Ryan Republican speech 'contained errors'

    Oh....I don't know? They have done so well with the post office, amtrak, green energy, and now health care. :rolleyes:

    Paul Ryan Republican speech 'contained errors'

    That is the brainless thinking of the current administration. The Volt is a disaster. But wait.....now they passed requirements for automakers to achieve outrageous fuel mileage by 2025. The auto industry says they "think" they can do it but the majority won't be able to afford them. Kinda...

    pay rate ALL Miles

    Turtle would be correct. I will also add, especially with larger carriers, they enter into agreements with customers for a certain period of time. That will drive some of those loads were the rate doesn't change. As for outside carriers hauling freight, happens all day long. Hey wait a minute...

    GOP wants Dr. Paul's followers, but not Dr. Paul

    Since he isn't endorsing Romney, no point in giving him a speaking slot. He has different views, some better than Romney's but the time for that was in the primaries. He didn't get it done so no reason to promote him at this point. His son endorsed Romney and he got a slot. I think it was really...

    Armstrong Vs. Obama

    Might be right on the used car salesman. Have to know how to maximize profits and losses :cool:

    Armstrong Vs. Obama

    In a one dimensional argument I could agree with you. Here is the problem. Spending too much with falling revenues. To raise revenue, you have to expand the base. Not enough rich people to carry the load. That why I really think we need a flat or some type of consumtion tax. From a "business"...

    Armstrong Vs. Obama

    The debt is the biggest problem. That by itself controls everything else from entitlements to student loans. Like I said before, if the problem keeps getting worse, the poor will be the first to take a hit from it. Sadly, some don't realize that. "Just print some more". The bad news is as the...

    Armstrong Vs. Obama

    Maybe it is time that it is ran by a businessman. Obama hasn't as much ran a garage sale let alone anything else and look what we have. A guy that is in way over his head. As for Cheri's post, his function wasn't to make investments based on the Nation. But if we are going to rip him for jobs...

    Armstrong Vs. Obama

    One could write a book on all things wrong with Obamacare starting with no money to do it unless we print some more. But to be fair, the pre-existing conditions part of it does have some value. The rest of it is a absolute joke.

    Armstrong Vs. Obama

    Part of what you say is true. By the very nature of how venture capitalism works, there is going to be casualties when a company is coming in trying to save a sinking ship. Some cases they benefit, and others they lost their behind. But do remember, they are using investors money to do those...

    I need a new insurance company...

    Can't really answer your question as to who "is the cheapest" but I am still sold on CIS which is a progressive agent. Great rates and up to this point, hassle free with any claims we have had. Not convinced you would get a better deal when looking at premiums vs coverage and claims response.

    Armstrong Vs. Obama

    There is nothing that indicates they won't repeal it or defund it. If you are looking at it from the "power grab" side of things, they would benefit by repealing it. But since we currently have just republicans and democrats essentially involved this election, what is your solution? I am a...

    APU unit question

    The strip club would have been best. At least you hope you got something for your money. No...this was at the Cummins dealer in Knoxville. I think it was a minumum hour labor and three filters. Then add tax and 10 thousand for "shop supplies" and we get to our total.

    Armstrong Vs. Obama

    Ok.....maybe time for a reality check. Turtle hit on part of it. Throwing money at poverty does absolutely nothing. We are billions in to Chicago and look at that disaster. Our biggest problem is we are 16 trillion dollars in the red and in a global economy. That is a huge problem. Can't raise...
