I drove past this between Salida and Cotopaxi on State Highway 50 in Colorado. I had to turn around and tell whoever that I stood with them totally assuming I was correct. I was and got the biggest hug of appreciation for doing so.

From my understanding, there are close to 3000 children being held around this country after being seized from their parents at the border.

Many will never see their Mom and Dad again because Republicans are totally evil.

You bastards!

Convoy Mexican Style

It was a piss poor idea in the first place-went away and is now back.

Congress could be moving closer to allowing Mexican trucks to haul cargo through the United States. In March 2009, U.S. lawmakers canceled funding for a test program begun by the Bush administration that allowed Mexican long-haul trucks to circulate in the United States. President Barack Obama had pushed Congress to remove the clause cutting funding for the program in recent legislation, a first step toward resolving the dispute.

Yes there were a few producers here that say they were hurt over this but how many reasons does one need to realize this idea sucks.

Recently while in Nogales the area north of the border along the interstate is filled with companies involved in the trucking business. If this is allowed to happen there are going to be many truckers here super pissed off and trouble will follow.

I want some special consideration as a citizen of this country for a change not for others who don't live here and I'm not being prejudiced.

Without question this change would improve life for some south of the border. That's a wonderful goal but when do we get something besides screwed by the dims.

  7. RZ,

    I last visited the North Rim in 2005. It's obviously time that I started thinking about a return visit.

  8. This is the kind of thing that always concerned me about Obama. Given his somewhat rarefied background, I fear he doesn't intuitively "get it" when it comes to the interests of the people who will be hurt by allowing competition based on Third World wage levels to infiltrate the economy.

    Such policies, like Bush's (fortunately derailed) illegal-alien amnesty, benefit only the economic elite. They are fundamentally elitist tendencies.

  9. Yes they are I'm afraid different but far too close to the other side.

    Like Biden coming to Beaver Creek the haunt of the richest in the world where Cheney hung and many of the other main players on the right. Just talked to a bud today and all Biden did was piss people off because everything was down and for a long time.
