    Political Correctness in Mexifornia

    I would have done the same thing. They have the right to wear what they want, the "others" have NO right to cause trouble over it. If trouble was started, those who started the trouble would be at fault, not the ones who wore those shirts. Cinco De Mayo is not an American holiday and should not...

    2010 Presidential Survey

    If he is then Stalin and the rest will be so PROUD of their SON. It will also be the last election in this country under our Constitution. It will be gone. IF and when that happens the trouble will start.

    Political Correctness in Mexifornia

    Cause trouble? How? Those "others" who might have been offended should not be. After all, this is NOT Mexico. Seems to me that they would have been the ones to cause trouble. They should NOT have been sent home for ANY reason. IF there were threats of violence against those who wore the AMERICAN...

    Winter Storm

    This is our second day with it. Yesterday brought severe storms and the odd tornado. Today the low it self is tracking across the Mackinac Straits and we are getting the wind/rain/snow from that low now. That should pull out by late this evening. Then the cold sets in. Lows below freezing...

    Expediter, you've gone to far!

    I guess I don't understand the question. No matter. Why is running legal a CYA thing? If the posted limit is 65 and the rest are running 75 why is my refusing to run illegal and informing dispatch of the problem CYA? How is that falling behind? They were breaking the law, not us. Should my truck...

    Old! Me Old???

    We were happy back then, at least most I knew were. We played until we dropped. We lived in a safe environment. We had parents who spent more time providing for the family than collecting more stuff. We were free to explore our limits, not held back by fearful parents who were afraid of a...

    Expediter, you've gone to far!

    You lost me. I once was in a "convoy" with several of those "E" units discussed in an earlier post. They took off like buck after a doe in heat. I called dispatch, informed them that I would not run at those speeds, which were in excess of posted limits, and could not keep up with the convoy. I...

    Cal's cousin on Hannity

    All human beings are less than perfect, politicians are just more less perfect than normal humans.

    Unless we all had video tapes running no one will ever have "proof" if someone does something wrong.

    Winter Storm

    They were just saying on the local weather that the winds were sustained at 20-25MPH with gusts near 50MPH. Your trucks will be rockin if you are around here today.

    Winter Storm

    Anyone traveling through the upper 1/3 of the "mitten" of Michigan or parts of the "Upper" WATCH OUT!!! Gaylord has already got 7" of SNOW on the ground and parts of the UP might get more than that. Beware of the high winds around SE Michigan and most likely the Toledo area. We have a strong...

    Petraeus says: Times Square bomber likely acted alone

    The problem starts at the top. The CIC is NOT doing HIS job. He is far too busy turning this country into a dictatorship. HE is the problem here.

    Our Pending Doom

    Many of the grand European socialist countries are in deep trouble, including England. This mess in Greece could very well cascade all over the world. As I stated before, this is the stuff that starts World Wars.

    Our Pending Doom

    If you want isolationism you will eventually be backed into your own little corner. What is your answer? Do a Nevil Chamberlain? Hide our heads in the sand like we did in 1935? You cannot knock the status quo unless you think you have a better way. I am open to suggestions. I would LOVE to not...

    Our Pending Doom

    Greece did FINE until they embraced communism. Do you understand just how much of our hard earned tax dollars are being sent overseas? This not a goody two shoe syndrome. I am all for letting ALL socialist countries fall. Either THEY pay for their freebies or don't get them. Why should WE pay...

    Petraeus says: Times Square bomber likely acted alone

    And? As long as Osama Obama continues to do NOTHING, to NO make things for real and run around blaming US for THEIR problems these attacks will not only continue but will increase in both numbers and severity.
