Self responsibility is a wonderful thing- may socialism burn in the bowels of hell

Now... this is only for a year... and Bush aint done yet. Lets not let our guard down

Wooooooooo hooooooooooooo

The link to the Senate websight for this bill: http://www.senate.gov/legislative/LI...n=1&vote=00331

O....M....G!!!!! THEY BLOCKED THE TRUCK PROJECT??? I CANT BELIEVE IT!!!!! ITS BLOCKED!. OH WHAT A NICE WAY TO END THE DAY. WHEW!!

Shut up Hoffa, you're just a hypocrite. You want to deny access for mexican truckers but you have no quarlls about hiring illegal usually Mexican labor.

The hoffa line should of ended with your father, at least we would of been a lot better off, instead of some elitist slob pig of a human being attempting to protray himself as actually caring about the U.S. worker.

SO IS THERE SOME CATCH TO THIS? LIKE THE USA TRUCKS CAN STILL DRIVE IN MEXICO, SO ILLEGALS WILL BE TAKING HAULS FROM INSIDE THE US ALL THE WAY TO MEXICO?

No there is no catch, that was just me ranting against Hoffa for being a flat out hypocrite. He's the head of the Union that sued on behalf of those no-match letters that were going to go out to employer's. Hince Hoffa would of had probably a good chunk of his work force out of work since they do not have a valid social slavery (yes SLAVERY) number.

He's a hypocrite, a liar, and just another shill who's only on his own side. he care's not about the common worker, why should he? He's never had to work a day in his life using the union labor empire his daddy built.

He squaks here and there, only when something irritates his tiny sensibilities such as mexican trucks hauling goods and materials well below what U.S. truck drivers make. That would destroy probably half of his union if those trucks got permanent permission to roam freely.

Some of the minute men even took pictures of Union members handing out flyers to the mexican truck drivers. Hoffa is a hypocrite, he cares only for himself and his preceived power of fighting for the "little man"

lets not get excited Bush already said he would veto this bill if its for more money than he ask for, and this afternoon it looked like on C-span that they said it was a few million off.
