Important Truckers Forum Notice!

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?

Yep. Sure is sad. I've been waiting for some of our leftist junkies on the board here, to take a whack at this post, but I think they know they dont have a leg to stand on here. I think even the left knows how low they've taken this country, but of course would never admit it. Then again maybe they're proud of these new lows.

We will not have to travel half way around the world anymore to fight Socialism and Communism.

Fight for Liberty will not be a slogan of a noble idea but a reality of daily life.

Socialism and total Government control are not knocking at the door anymore, they have walked in, invited by the huddled masses who are determined to "vote"themselves the things they want.
