Truckers' Trucking Forum/Message Board - The Premiere Truck Driver Forum

Politics Do Not Pass/Pass With Care. Today's truckers are far more educated and cognizant of the issues regarding politics due to the sharp increase in talk radio, and various trucking news media sources. Talk politics. Do truckers like politicians?

Jabs during the debates.

Right off the bat, Thompson says that the economy is "rosie" and that there is no recession.
When They asked Ron Paul, he stated, Michigan knows about it, the middle class knows about it, and the poor people knows about it. But,
"Wall st. doesn't know about it, Washinton don't know about it.

Hunter slammed Thompson for his vote for China's trade also. Thompsons reply went way off course. He went into "Well, we have to have trade with China". But then turned right around talked about the bad points of China's trade, which he voted for........
I get the feeling, by the look on thompsons face, that if he gets jabbed anymore, he's start crying like "Cartman" from South Park.

Moderator: "Rep. Paul, this question is for you, 'What should Republicans do about the SCHIPS program for poor children's health care?'"

Rep. Paul:"All this talk about health care for poor kids is nonsense, the problem is our foreign policy, we are fighting a war we did not declare and we need to return to the gold standard.!!".

Moderator: "Thank you Rep. Paul, you raving lunatic, you almost answered the question."

Any wonder why this guy won't make it any farther than a couple of web logs??

Tancredo came off as relatively sane in comparison.

That is a LIE!!!!!!!!! Ron Paul never got to comment on SCHIP! If your gonna bash someone, at least use the facts.
What was said was "Going and talking to Attorneys (about retaliation of a strike against the US) is proposterous'......In which he was commenting on Romney's statement.
Ron is opposed to government mandating and regulating health care. Cause it's a known fact, that Dr.s who do not except insurance, whether its private insurance, Medicare or Medicaid, the prices are 2/3rd lower. And consider the amount we pay per week for our insurance and never receive anything, or can't get the treatment cause it's not covered, or the Dr.s can't provide the care needed cause they know the insurance isn't gonna pay what the Dr. need to provide the service.
Most families pay a minimum of $400 a month for health care, and are forced to see the Dr. on the plan. They are forced to, usually by their employer of which insurance is available.
If your family took all the money it pays every year for insurance, you would have $4800 minimum. Thats alot of money. If there were no health insurances (including Medicare/Medicaid/schip) companies that are regulated by government, we could afford to pay for a doctor visit. And if you eliminate the Income Tax, that would mean even more money in your pocket to pay for private education Health care. Send your kids to the school you want, instead of whats available. Go to the Dr. of your choice, and not what your company offered insurance says.
It's all about Freedom of YOUR choice. Not what the Government tells you is free. You believe the government when they tell you that your free. But try this. Don't pay taxes on your house for 7 years. Don't pay your school taxes. Try to build something onto your home without a permit. Drive your truck down the road without the permits. just try some of these things and see how free you are. Sure, your free to go to Wal-mart and buy what you want. Go to the movie you want to see. But, I'm talking about freedoms that REALLY impact our lives.

Somebody has no sense of humor. Do you really think the moderator called him a raving lunatic?


Ron is opposed to government mandating and regulating health care. Cause it's a known fact, that Dr.s who do not except insurance, whether its private insurance, Medicare or Medicaid, the prices are 2/3rd lower.
And just to be clear, patients on Medicare who are supposedly unable to pay for care and pay the Doctor what they can are committing fraud. So your boy Ronny was an accessory to a crime if he was paid by any of those people. My guess is he never even treated them, he's not that dumb.

Doctors help patients unable to pay in many ways...people who do things for others don't do it because their dumb Ronno....try it sometime...you might learn something valuable.

So my point that accepting any payment other than medicare from someone in the program is fraud is lost on you?

So you revert to the old standby of insulting people. I thought we had rules about that.
