October 13, 201312 yr I guess that is why those 3000 truckers didn't show up to waste a weekend driving around in circles . Reminds me of that line from the CSNY 4-Way Street live album back in the day. "It starts out kinda slow, then fizzles out altogether."
October 14, 201312 yr Owner/operators are being regulated out of business. Not just that, they are getting leveraged out as well. It's going the way of Walmart and such. The bigger the company, the lower the prices (and service), and the lower the amount of available contracts. Changes in hours of service did them no favors either.

October 14, 201312 yr I guess that is why those 3000 truckers didn't show up to waste a weekend driving around in circles .Working folks don't have time to spend their lives protesting like the Occupy crowd.
October 14, 201312 yr Working folks don't have time to spend their lives protesting like the Occupy crowd. You got that right , or even the tea party protesters
October 14, 201312 yr You got that right , or even the tea party protesters Huge difference between a tea party and OWS protest. Tea party protests happen mostly on the weekend and if they do happen during the week its for one. OWS protests were for weeks upon weeks. The tea party was filled with working middle class OWS this would not be possible because of the daily protest. The tea party has little to no arrests at any event. OWS protests incurred hundreds of arrests.

October 16, 201312 yr So maybe I missed it. Were the truckers successful in their efforts to restore our Constitutional republic?
October 16, 201312 yr "East bound and down. Loaded up and trucking. We are going to do what they say can't be done. We have a long way to go but a short time to get there"
October 16, 201312 yr YOU think Benghazi is a non story ? How obtuse are you . It is a huge story that should never have happened . The administration really dropped the ball on that . The truth will eventually come out ,but probably after Hillary's 8 years as president .
October 16, 201312 yr Yeah , as dumb as the voters are becoming I can see her guiding us . Too many voters form their opinions from Ophra and Jay Leno and idiots like Bill Maher ... as the country sinks down the crapper .
October 21, 201312 yr hard to tell because the natl media refused to cover the story . Trust me, there was no story.
