I've seen that floating around facebook. I've also seen it claimed that facebook shut down their page. I've also seen it claimed that this trucker organization is teeming up with the "Impeach Obama Overpass" folks as well.

Haven't seen any of it elsewhere - only facebook.

To lose our country by a scrupulous adherence to written law, would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, property and all those who are enjoying them with us; thus absurdly sacrificing the end to the means."

I'd like to see some of those tanker trucks carrying effluent from a hog farm empty their contents on Pennsylvania Avenue.

Ah yes, a reverse Augian Stables.

Oh, and don't forget the Rayburn House and Russell Senate office buildings are NOT on Pennsylvania Avenue.  You have to spread the wealth of porcine intestinal discharge beyond Pennsylvania Avenue.

I wouldn't hold my breath on this.
This goes aroumd almost every year and has since 1973

If it's independents, the Teamsters will scab on them.

In the end, this all CB and truck stop talk.

I would be in favor of it if they could, though

I hear that women like "sensitive guys"

When I was single, there were still plenty of women who wanted a real man. Otherwise, I'd have been lost. After being married so long, I don't know if those women still exist.

Hey AP?  I think when modern progressive gals say "sensitive" they really mean "obedient and easily manipulated men with little to no self-esteem".   ;)

Otherwise known as the new castrati (thanks, Rush).

In real speak, "sensitive" means tact and a sense of timing; this means genuine men and rules out the boors.

I didn't think that happened until after marriage....

Why do:
Men marry hoping the women don't change and they do.
Women marry hoping the men will change but they don't.

There is no why, there just is.

I, for one, hoped my man wouldn't change, and he hasn't.

Sounds to me like y'all went in with an honest understanding that didn't deviate...how...normal and sensible!  Y'all obviously societal outliers...but in society today most normal folks are, I call that a badge of honor!

Good on you both!

Why do:
Men marry hoping the women don't change and they do.
Women marry hoping the men will change but they don't.

I use something similar all the time,

Men marry women hoping they will never change
Women marry men hoping that they can change them
Neither get their way.
