George w. Bush's stock is rising. I am correcting his grade to a "B" .

What's in the drinking water in Ohio? These diatribes go a long way toward explaining why business and manufacturing are fleeing the Buckeye state. I wouldn't expect to ever see another automotive plant or any viable manufacturer to build north of the Ohio River. Why would any new venture...

Chef... why people project their hopes and dreams onto this guy baffles me. It is a flight from reality to think Obama can turn this economy around. Presidents have little or no influence to direct the national economy. If we had a command economy, a head of state could wield real power...

The best revenge is to live well. Enjoy time with your family and friends. Then, fortify yourself for the fight ahead. Frustrate the leftist agenda at every turn in the road. Give them 2, 4, 6, 8 years of unmitigated hell. Turnabout is fair play, after all. Give the Obama fan club nothing...

Turtle... I always enjoy reading your posts. Every Kentucky schoolboy is well versed in Lincoln lore. Thanks for clarifying his military record. The study of Lincoln could consume a lifetime and would be time well spent.

OVM Sir, we don't have many sacred cows in this country. But you have a problem with the US Constitution? It is the most benevolent, divine document produced by the minds of men. All other democracies are just hangers-on. The United States is progenitor supreme of individual liberty. Yes...

I, too, would give Geo. W. Bush a "C". He was a huge disappointment to us conservatives. His heart was in the right place with the war on terror. However, he and I part ways on nearly all other aspects of governing. Way too liberal for the most part. Supreme court nominees were excellent...

MLK was repeatedly jailed, beaten and ultimately killed for his beliefs. I admire he had the courage of his convictions. How many today have that moxy? I wasn't commenting on his personal life. His FBI dossier was probably toyed with by J. Edgar Hoover.

Experience matters alot. Ever notice politicians spend millions of campaign dollars touting their record of achievements and their experience in getting things accomplished? They use their "experience" as their calling card to get elected. Even if they must embellish or enhance their scant...

Obama will do the bididing of his paymasters, as all presidents do. Obama's beholden to the unions, the trial lawyers, the ACLU, the homosexual lobby, environmental extremists, the anti-gun lobby, the Hollywood elite, all the usual suspects on the far left. He prefers Rev. Jeremiah Wright to...

I have a dream my four little trucks will one day operate in a nation where they will not be judged by their color or size, but by the content of their cargo, the quality of their contract and their rate per mile. God has allowed me to go to the mountaintop. And I've looked over and I've seen...

I would feel better if a child was becoming president.

Can you imagine having a large truck payment in this environment?

The refrain "making history" is so over used and misapplied. Nearly any event can said to be making history. History can be good or bad. The Holocaust made history and we all recoil at its horror. In fact, there is more bad history than good history. We humans have an abysmal record with...

The Marine Corps just landed a top tier recruit, my son. Forgive this father's pride if I babble on. My son, Ross, will report for basic training at Parris Island,SC in two weeks. He signed a four year contract to drive and operate tanks. A quiet, polite, unassuming young man who graduated...

I suspect there will be a nationwide phenomena of gagging and puking on Tuesday. Change is coming. A change from which we may not recover.

I will not be watching the leftist takeover of our country on Tuesday. No television that day, except maybe the Weather Channel. There is no joy in Muddville. Go outside and play with the kids, build a snowman, read a book, organize the sock drawer.... anyone with me?

Would like to add a few names of singular talent: Alison Kraus, Patty Loveless, Roy Orbison, Roger Miller, Bob Seger, Mark Knopler, Tracy Chapman, Janis Joplin, Steve Earle, Shenandoah, Rolling Stones, CCR.

Primarily XM radio channels 121, 165, 168, 171 and WLW on 173. For music... channels 7,8, 23,24,25, 46 and 49. One could infer I am a right-winger with a penchant for 70's rock music. Such an inference would be correct. Also, XM's weather and traffic channels are fabulous. XM is such a...

I am 20-25 years away from retirement and working with a distant time horizon. Because I hope to give another 20+ years to this industry, I am perplexed by the submissive types who say are willing to embrace nonsustainable freight rates. There is no logic in such an operation. It is slow...
