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?

Thumbs down It seems..

It just appears that the Liberals can 'dish it out' but cant 'take it!!' That's the bottom line to me. I dont see any Conservatives (that's 'Traditional Americans') getting so upset about all the name calling by the other side---go ahead and call me a NEOCON!! I'm a big boy and can take it!! Just dont act so noble in your beliefs when in reality they are 'false nobilities!' Liberals talk perfect-world ideologies and not realities of the actual world that we live in! Sorry for making anybody cry...

We often have a minority government here in Canada. Don't you know anything about Canadian politics? We certainly know all about yours...

..the Canada that I remember when growing up in N. Montana (traveled to Lethbridge often) was pro-American and pretty much 100% inline with the U.S. policies----as close as brothers to us....Viet Nam deserters changed all that.... and it hasnt been the same!

So you say...who are you trying to convince? You're the one whining...

I'm a 'Traditional American'...born and raised here...

Noble...I'm not calling you a rethug, or a repug...or a dim...I'm not calling you anything...If you fit the definition of NeoConservative, then be offended that I disagree if you must, but not because it's a name I'm calling you...it's a philosophy you've chosen.

Liberals talk reality based facts for the most part...not faith based policy and world view...liberals are more in tune.

I have some tissue if you need it...but, if you're a neoconservative it's because you bought into it..

Rhetorical question eh Brenda? I'm learning... I don't think the two party system is benefiting America, it is controlled by a small, elite group. I think we need to do away with it and allow "the People" to have some representation again...

Is that a personal attack or just the threat of a personal attack? Am I supposed to be quaking in my socks? Short fuse eh?

Just because your knickers are in a twist don't think I'm there with you ok?

It's all in fun, remember? LOL
