The majority of voters voted for Obama TWICE...I'm sorry to say, he does represent the majority of the voters...your side lost...deal with it.
You're right... the majority of voters voted for Obama TWICE... some even voted four and five times... and even others voted from the grave.
He definitely represents. (everything America shouldn't be...)

The only thing I find funny is, when people in the US complain about the gas prices... look at Europe.
We pay arround 8$ per gallon, possible more. Depends where you live.
Btw. in Germany the taxpart of the price is arround 60%edit on 21-9-2013 by aLLeKs because: (no reason given)

We need this. I hope it’s a huge turnout and inconvenience many Americans to the point where they open there eyes and understand how dire the situation is in America.
How will that help?
Seriously, how will stopping other Americans who are suffering from being able to get things they need help?
I know this question isn't directed at me but I understand it to be an attempt to also stir American's to speak up more - not as a punishment but to realize how much everything is dependent upon everything else and what the government is doing is causing harm to the balance of it all. Correct me it I'm wrong in here someone.

I'm not sure it really will hurt us unless someone out there goes to the store each day for their groceries, never planning in advance. If taking a road trip there will still be gas. It's not meant to greatly disrupt peoples lives but rather to let government know the middle class is hurting - in fact people on welfare are better off in some cases it seems. It is my understanding they have tried to be heard in other ways and it has made no impact. I believe this is to drive home the idea - if it costs too much to work this is what will happen: please America, support us. If you don't the end result may be worse than just 3 days.

I am just curious what trucking and the ACA have to do with each other.
I do not understand that. You do not think people could see these things before the NSA was spying on you? Do you understand how the internet works? Do you know what happens when you post things on social networking sites? Spies do not need to spy on them. We can all just look and always could. See my confusion?

From their facebook page:
I would like everyone to know that their are some copycat FB pages circulating that have no affiliation to this page or event. This event is about upholding the Constitution, Fuel policy's and Obamacare that will bankrupt every American trucker. This is a event is a three day shut down either park it or roll to DC. The American people are in full support with no commerce for those three days.
There are some spelling and grammatical errors but you know what, WHO CARES!?
This is what America needs. MASS civil disobedience.
On October 11, truckers are going to roll into DC. If you cant make it to DC, park your rig.
They are asking that everyone support this protest even if you arent a truck driver. Stay home from work maybe?
IMHO, the focus should be on shutting down DC.
In honor of this potentially monumental event, its only appropriate to watch the trailer from BLACK DOG:
"You can drive. Its comin' back to me", [down shift and hornnnnnnnn].
And of-course, Ron Paul's BIG DOG ad:

I think EVERTHING! to be fair..
No shops getting re-filled, no gas/petrol stations being re-filled and more. No trucking, no nothing.
Fair?
I am in Scotland as many know, but would I be close?
