    The Trump Card...

    I learned today... the blade manufacturing facilities that I have driven right by and/or delivered to in Grand Forks, ND and Little Rock, AR and Decatur, IL and Colorado Springs, CO and Portland, OR (and a few others I can't even think of right now) are all actually in Mexico. Awesome. Those...

    That was quite an impressive very first post on EO.

    The Trump Card...

    First, I called The Donald a buffoon because he is. He's a Birther who, to somehow show up Obama, declared that he would release his own long form birth certificate for the world to see. He then released the hospital certificate of birth, which is not an official birth certificate, or a long...

    JADE HELM

    There was an army of Army at the J in Florence, SC on Saturday getting fuel, and making the lines at the two open checkout registers laughably long. There was like 50 identical vehicles, Jeep-looking things, and colored, all hauling little trailers, the size of a decent generator. I figured they...

    Taking offense at flags

    That's some wildly glossed over PR propaganda right there. For example, it says, among many things that seem hunky dory... Muslim women can inherit property, and to have their marriage dissolved in the case of neglect or mistreatment; While that's true, to get a divorce, for any reason or no...

    fleet owner who owns half of vans in service

    There are certainly times when you are quite certain that every dispatcher has a Post It Note stuck to their computer screen that says "Let this guy sit and rot," and it's got your name on it. But that's just not how it works. Even at a small carrier and you tick off the wrong person in...

    fleet owner who owns half of vans in service

    But that doesn't mean they're screwing you over and trying to cover it up.

    fleet owner who owns half of vans in service

    One thing that must be understood in that context is, very few carriers are "smart," and will add more vans than they have loads, in the hopes they'll get loads for them. But they rarely do.

    Where have you gone Democratic Party?

    The liberals are too far to the left, the conservatives are too far to the right, and everyone else is too entrenched in the center, just like they have been In every other ejection year since Washington got elected. Only the names have been changed to facilitate easier finger pointing

    fleet owner who owns half of vans in service

    Coincidence. The carrier has zero incentive to harm you by their wrongdoings (which is implied by cover up). For one, it is slow all over for cargo vans, and two, when it's slow for cargo vans, and it always is, increased competition for loads makes it even slower for individual cargo van...

    Of course he was responsible. Just like today where Obama is responsible for everything that anyone does, because he's in charge, it's his watch, he's responsible. (C'mon, now, that was funny!) Free speech had been under attack in this country since well before the First Amendment was added...

    Taking offense at flags

    The Nathan B. Forrest tomb, and statue which sits above it, have long been a bone of contention in Memphis for most of the city's population. It's in Health Sciences Park, which until 2013 was named Forrest Park after the very General himself. He was originally buried in a cemetery elsewhere in...

    Inexcusable murder

    Walls, nor anything else, as a standalone system, will ever work 100 percent all the time every day forever and ever. But as part of a comprehensive border securement program, walls could be highly effective in securing the border. Personally, I think instead of utilizing an insane number of...

    Inexcusable murder

    So did I. "...a wall along the southern border is racist, border guards at any of the borders or ports of entry are racist, you name is, anything that doesn't allow free and unfettered immigration is racist."

    Inexcusable murder

    Immigration activists don't merely play the racism card, most of the cards in their deck are racism cards. It's an easy card to play, because for most our history of immigration laws it was blatantly racist, and we didn't even pretend it wasn't. There were strict quotas based on race and...

    Taking offense at flags

    That's an easy one. The South doesn't like the federal government, the northern federal government in particular, who doesn't know what the South is or what the Southern culture is, coming in and telling us how to live, coming in and imposing their version of society on us. The South doesn't...

    And the bigotry continues

    I didn't, actually. But I predicted you (or someone else) would say that with, "You (or someone) may say that pedophiles and homosexuals are not at all the same, but in the context of how society views them (or at least in the context of the 80s), you'd be dead wrong. They are exactly the same...

    Cargo Van Cargo Vanners What GPS do you use?

    It's like the parkways in Jersey, New York and Maryland. If the sign says "Passenger Cars Only," believe it. If you have a passenger van with the seats removed to haul cargo, it's a cargo van now and not a passenger car.

    And the bigotry continues

    It would be a mistake to look solely at the Amendment regarding the restriction on Congress in the establishment or prevention of religion, and conclude there is no separation of church and state, while ignoring the various and sundry court rulings clarifying the First Amendment which have ruled...
