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?

If there were no terrorists in Iraq, what do YOU call Saddam Hussein and his Baathist Party? Among his other accomplishments he rewarded the Palestinian suicide bombers that would blow up Israelis, besides terrorizing his own countrymen, women and children.

No WMD's in Iraq because we had to wait for the other terrorists, called the UN, to make up their minds what to do. We wasted valuable time, through diplomatic channels, waiting for them to stop picking their noses (or was it pulling their thumbs out of their butts?) and decide. By then the WMD's had been put on a convoy to Syria..........where the heck have you been?

What I'm trying to figure out is how a christian can support anyone who is liberal minded, much less a communist. Can you tell me how this can be, PLEASE?! I am stupified.

If it wasn't for the CIA, Afghanistan might have been part of Russia today.

NobleOne, me thinks thou doth protest too much. For someone who claims not to be that supportive of Obama, you sure do defend him aggressively enough.
I could write a very long post defending my positions and reconciling my political beliefs with my faith but you know what? I'm pretty well through discussing anything with narrow minded people who's entire view of the world is formed by preconcieved ideas of what is true and what is real. I can't make the blind see and I'm about done trying to.

Truth is constant... ideas preconceived or not are inconsistent. YOUR preconceived "idea" reflects YOUR perception/opinion of an idea. Truth has NO "pre" anything. What was True yesterday, is True today and will be True tomorrow...FACT, not "idea".

Yeah we're blind because we don't support what you see as the "truth" Too bad, so sad.

I hope you realize that I wasn't saying I'm the only one. I was "explaining" why I feel so passionately about this.

And that is exactly how I feel about you. You too give that impression of narrow mindedness and preconcieved ideas.

I personally think it's a shame that discussion.......true discussion isn't allowed to take place.
