If I lived in Va, I'd vote for you, Geo.

I'm not a fan, so it's unlikely. Depends on who the other choice is, ultimately.

The most prominent conservative women [AFAIK] are Sarah Palin, Michelle Bachmann, Ann Coulter, and [less so now] Ann Romney. All of whom have made statements that indicate a lack of intelligence and run counter to common sense. And I don't mean the 'slip' of tongue that every public person...

The "like ugly on Whoopi" was a columnist's description in something LDB linked, I forget what. And I've seen a lot of nasty comments about Michelle Obama's appearance, and of course, Hilary Clinton and Nancy Pelosi - but I don't see the same focus on the looks of Republicans, just comments from...

So they'll fight - are we truck drivers or mice? Besides, who knows the issues better than we do? With ATeam and Turtle coaching, we can't lose, lol. :D

That's what I'm talkin about: we all pay attention to attractive people, that's human nature. What it looks like, though, is that the Republicans endorse the attractive people, no matter how dimwitted they actually are. And conservative comments, whether from the talking heads or the ordinary...

So would threatening the financial interests of the entire US because you dislike legislation that you failed 40 times already to overturn, but that didn't stop some Republicans from trying extortion, when all else failed.

Of course they're talking about him - but did any of them include any reference to his attractiveness [or lack of] in their comments? I haven't seen any that did....

I still like Truckers for Sanity, because safety should go without saying. Just saying, lol.:o

The longest journey begins with a single step. From little acorns, mighty oak trees grow. I could go on, but you get the idea: nothing ventured, nothing gained. Aren't aphorisms wonderful? ;)

If the [union] TL/LTL interests don't care too much about detention, they should care about driver training, which we can support. If anyone knows about horsetrading to get the desired result, it's the unions, lol. ;)

Again, you're barking up the wrong tree, muttly. The fantasy was about both Bachmanns and their insistence that homosexuality is a choice that can be unmade, not about how attractive [and therefore worth paying attention to] Michelle is. Again: where are the unattractive [but brainy]...

That's pretty much how expediters feel in the discussions of the various rules by FMCSA, because they're all about 'big' trucking: TL & LTL, where the schedules and demands are quite different. It's a large part of why it's so hard to get truckers to agree on even the issues, much less the...

Thanks, PP. That's the point I was trying to make, before the convo got sidetracked with an off topic [and truly loony] comment: the organizers and spokespersons for the "trucker's Ride for the Constitution" are tinfoil hat wearing crazies. With 'friends' like that, we're just giving people who...

Ok, that was atrocious - I swear, my eyes and ears are both bleeding. The thread title, though? Totally worth it! :p

I don't see how, if the family [beneficiaries] were deceived as well. What I wonder is: does he get exempted from the Obamacare mandate? Cause it could become a popular strategy, lol.

Ouch. [They surely did, though.] Reading about the histories of the 'spokespersons' just appalled me, because they're not helping us with their history. Maybe a catchy acronym? TAMPA: Truckers Against Moronic Protesting A**holes :cool: Ok, back to the drawing board.

Some very good thinking here, except for one thing: FMCSA and DOT promote every hare brained plan as a promise to improve safety, so the meaning of the word is suspect, IMO. I'd call it Truckers for Sanity, instead - because we surely need some. ;)

I don't think the Rocket did your argument any good, lol, much less prove it, lol. :rolleyes:

Another irrelevent example: first, because Laura Ingraham is a fellow public personality, while Sandra Fluke was a private person testifying to Congress, not someone putting herself and her opinions on the airwaves. Public personalities know that ratings are the name of the game, and they're...
