Yes folks, it’s the 111th Congress! In session and open for business tomorrow. Obama is meeting with the “leaders” today – Nancy Pelosi and her buds. Now I’d like to have Nancy (nice legs) down here with me at the Pilot T/S here in dull and dreary Kannapolis NC, north of Charlotte. It’s after lunch time and the parking lot is full of MT flatbeds and box trucks waiting for freight. A few of the folks have been here since Friday. Some longer. It’s just not a good sign when truckers sit in a T/S looking at each other’s ugly mugs. Worse is when they start to talk to each other.
So Nancy what are you going to do to fire up this economy? You don’t know. Well, honey, I suggest you figure it out right quick. I know you going to try and get that Ledbetter Bill through. For those of you who spend more time posting pretty pictures of driving in the snow and chaining up rather than following legislation, Ledbetter is all about pay equity for women. That’s great, although women should be at home raising children and not passing the job on to our teachers. After all, there’s only so much Ritalin to go around. Clearly, if a woman wants to work, then she should ALWAYS be paid the same as a man. I don’t know why there was ever any question about that.
Anyway, Nancy, like I said, Ledbetter thing is great, but trucks sitting around MT burning diesel into the environment just isn't good. My making $125 last week also isn't good. So do something to get all those stupid MEN who supposedly you “coordinate” get crack a lack’n.
