Truckers Ride for the Constitution. hits DC today

Fuck Yeah! That's what I like to see, baby!!!

Just what we need to interpret our constitution...a bunch of guys who are expert at double clutching and the intricacies between leaded and unleaded fuel. These fellas know what's what. Yeah...fuck the EPA, too, who needs clean air and water.

Really, the only thing dumber than this protest is people who support truckers to interpret a complex document that is the US Constitution. Fuck yeah.....:crazy:

whats complicated? it's one of the most easy to read legal documents i ever saw. people that say it's complicated actually mean it's outdated, or even it's wrong, they just say it's complicated because it's hard to twist the straight forward language into the opposite of what was said. the constitution is some how only complicated when you get in to office, before that you understand it just like 90% of the common people understand the words. but once you get the magic hat of office, lo and behold up is down and down is up, good is bad and so on. it's quite funny in a tragic way.

but seriously show me the complicated bits of the constitution. compared to modern laws it's written like a childrens book.

It's not just pelosi, feinstein, reid and obama. It's EVERY member of congress that has take donations from big lobbyist, big business, etc, to vote in their favor, wants, and needs over that of American citizens. Congress has been fucking us and countries abroad for a LONG< LONG time. But come election time dumb asses, who think the red or blue koolaid is the best, keep on putting the members of the 2 party system right back up there as if spreading their ass cheeks and begging for more please.
Democrates and Republicans have eroded our rights, wiped their ass with the constitution, allowed funding for agencies to spy on us left and right, started unnecessary wars and yet the koolaid still taste fine.
Trust us. we're from the government and we're here to fuc, err,,help you. But that's just the way I see it.
Makes me fuckin sick!! But that's just the way I see it.

i'm sorry i couldn't think of but one republican...boehner. and i share your distaste for what they have done.

being "borned" here does not make you a hypocrite. dogging one group of fucktards while loving another one on the other hand DOES

worse things? you mean the "non helpful" votes? or the sad comedy of you finally telling us who these great leaders that you think would solve things are?

FWIW i don't like any of the politicians you would like to see hung. but unlike you i realize that even if you got rid of all of them the only effect would be a change in the color of the koolaid.

show me some solutions so i can stop believing that all you do is blame one guy for 200+ years of political fuckery while you give the multiple idiots that came before him a pass.

dogging one group of fucktards while loving another one on the other hand DOES

heh, there's no more gay bashing...:moon:

oh like i track unhelpful votes ffs i don't give a shit and i never said i had any solution or peerson/persons in mind that could...till i began thinking of your response.
all members of congress must be CPA's and accountable...son in law...
and i realize that changing the guard is just theater.
and what kind of BS is "all you do is blame one guy for 200+ years of political fuckery while you give the multiple idiots that came before him a pass." ...wow:laughing: like the King?


All of them need to go.

EVERY.
LAST.
G'DAMN ONE OF EM'!!!!!!!

The U.S. political party system is BROKEN and has NOT represented the best interests of the public as a whole since.....who fucking knows.

Every single one of these motherfuckers needs to be voted out of office, REGARDLESS of the political costume they are wearing.

Political parties need to be ABOLISHED.

One person, running for one slot, and the BEST QUALIFIED person should get the vote. Who fucking cares what they promise, LOOK AT WHAT THEY'VE DONE.


VOTE these fuckers OUT!

no vote, just out them. both sides of the same coin...

Fuck Yeah! That's what I like to see, baby!!!

when the little guy knows, the big guys have been negligent. and i would trust their interpretation before yours.

At least they are taking a stand. You may not like the messengers but the message is a valid one. Congress is like the cop that once told me, and I quote. "Shut the fuck up and do what we tell you." For what it's worth, I never learned to stfu.

this is what's what.
them at least taking a stand. imma be on the ovverpass tomorrow with an impeach congress banner.
it's gotta start somewhere.

so politicians don't give a fuck about you, they closed down the government, and you think they are gonna care some guys in trucks r gonna jam the streets?

why not run against them? take their jobs. that will scare them for real.

Great story. I was driving back on a road trip with friends after enjoying an amazing game 5 baseball playoff finally. The car was filled with 3 other guys, I asked them if the government was still shut down. They all 3 replied that they didn't know. I asked them if the shut down is having ANY impact on them. They all didn't know or care.

Even with the government shutdown CHP pigs were in full force and Sheriff pigs were also on the road.

As for the game itself it was the first time EVER in my life having to walk through full size metal detectors to enter a stadium. TSA in waiting to come to a concert and sporting event near you.

FUCK the government, keep the doors shut until these bastards are arrested like the truckers know is right.

We drove under a banner talking about shutting down the government on a US Interstate Highway, that is what brought me to ask a group of self-sufficient people about how the shutdown effected their self sufficiency. Seems government doesn't matter much if you try to be self-sufficient.

Yeah...fuck the EPA, too, who needs clean air and water.

If you think that this is the current focus of the EPA, then you've missed out on the improvements to the agency under this administration. They even (like apparently every other federal agency these days) have their own SWAT team. It was pretty entertaining to find that, during this current government shutdown, 6.6% of the EPA workforce was considered essential. Honesty in marketing.

:woohoo:
30 trucks participated today




In a statement released on Tuesday, Norita Taylor of the Owner-Operator Independent Drivers Association accused the protest organizers of essentially using well-intentioned truckers as pawns in an ideological battle. “The individuals leading this particular effort have no direct affiliation with trucking and appear to be using truckers in order to gain media attention and air other political grievances,” Taylor wrote. “We do not support assembling in an unlawful, unpermitted manner, committing crimes, making threats on our lawmakers, or behaving in such a way to cast safe, professional truck drivers in a negative light.”


t was a similar story at the American Trucking Association, which said on its website that it does not “endorse or condone the activities of these few individuals.”

the kind of BS it is is you taking things out of context. cherry picking would be the politicly correct term. take out the first 10 words of a sentence and you can make yourself think whatever you want, but that isn't what i meant (and the funniest part is that you know it)

it is nice to see that now you want to get rid of all of congress. it would help a whole lot more than just focusing on 6 idiots selling blue koolaid, so i can actually see the sense in it

from the video in the George Carlin thread, there's a bit very correct and enlightened directly related to this subject, found a video of only it:

maybe it's not the politicians that suck?:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9etoocgcWm8

nah, it's definitely the politicians who lie and promise to follow the law, as well as a whole bunch of other promises, then turn round and do the bidding of the highest bidder, that suck big time! the people are not really given much choice, 9 times out of 10 the choice is between bad and worse.

Carlin is a very funny guy, his style of shocking statement based humor is effective. but his arguments about not voting, hold very little water if you were to debate them in a non comedy context.

there was no tea party when Bush was starting wars and profiting from the occupation of iraq but as soon as a black guy becomes Pres. , all of a sudden they're concerned about federal debt? I hate hypocrites because they're full of shit and when they get high they always get smacked in mouth...

People sure were hoping that this trucker lock down of the 495 loop would happen. I have a feeling most were threatened with losing their jobs hence the no-show. I was really hoping this would happen but it's just too simple these days to shut somebody down real fast by taking their job. I'm not sure how many independent truckers there really are.

his main point is that the people in the government, are the same people living in the American society...with the same cultural beliefs and assumptions...imho...this is simply a fact.

...and as far as voting...if you are given two choices...and you vote for one of them, believing this makes a difference, it is stupid to complain later, when the assholes you voted for - bend you over and bang you in the bung-hole without vaselline :biggrin:

...not voting is a clear choice, and if all people didn't go to vote, something would start to change...obviously!

Complaining that your candidate shows himself to be a lying hypocrite is the first step towards running a different candidate in the next primary to replace the cheat. I'll pass on the anal sex fantasies, thank you. :biggrin:

...not voting is a clear choice, and if all people didn't go to vote, something would start to change...obviously!

And this scenario fails miserably because there are always people who will go vote. Your refusing to vote is just music to their ears.

There was a HUGE false flag operation 9/11, which had the wool pulled over the eyes of almost ALL of the MeriKan population AND Mr. Clinton had left the deficit at near ZERO.

It took a few years of Bush's fuck ups to create the financial crises which helped birth the tea party.

Get off the blue / red black / white divide and conquer and realize all politicians have been fucking all MeriKans for more than 100 years.

Aren't you concerned about 17T in national debt? I sure am.

you'd think that it's the same people voting and being voted for, but some how the most powerful ones all seem to have gone to the same schools and universities, they know the same circles of people, many of them are related to each other distantly. specially presidents all seem to be related.

your average Joe is not interested in politics unless he feels things are so fucked that he has to try, but those are the minority. mostly the ones going into politics do so because they are greedy ambitious and power hungry. it's an inherent flaw in the system. power attracts ruthless power hungry types, but it's worse, because power also corrupts, so if you start out power hungry and corrupt you will be a ruthless gangster when you get the power of office.
