    I Like Mike Huckabee

    Ark...Hawk and some others here have a problem with social programs. The U.S. is so far behind the rest of the world in this respect. I would call Hawk and the others "The Old American Style" where nothing changes and everything stays the same. JMO..The U.S has to get out of other countries...

    Whats his chances?

    Greg said" My question is why did he pay so much for a old sprinter?" My thoughts? A lot of the 03's were the problem children of MC...It probably spent a lot of time in the shop and the owner couldn't dump it till the "right" person come along. Another 10 grand and he'd have a new one. I don't...

    They gotta do something about idling still too many idiots idling for no reason. And if you give an owner an inch he'll take a mile...They need to be pushed. I've done some research seems they have a half hour limit. Amazing run it and then shut it down and restart...innovation is good.
