    Islamist cleric Anwar al-Awlaki killed in Yemen

    AND?? People plan attacks every day, we don't go after them do we? Have we attacked North Korea to oust their leader? I have no reason to believe otherwise, the guy got what he deserved and I am glad he is one less we have to worry about BUT you miss the bigger picture here, from Facebook...

    ACLU: Killing US born al-Quieda

    You both miss the point and this is the problem, when we start thinking we are a nation of men and not a nation of laws, our society and country is be lost. There is such a blood lust with some of these people it is unreal. The point of both Paul and the ACLU is simple, the federal government...

    Canadian Commentator Gets It Right

    Well I don't know about the MSN stuff, Fox too has been the same as MSN so they are all the same. Fox in the last few days has been hitting us with the "Jackson" trial and it is another spectacular scene grabbing crap just like their competitors. BUT with that said something odd struck me when...

    IRAN ships to protrol near american waters

    You know Layout, an EMP won't kill anyone - you know that. BUT putting this in perspective of the world stage, an EMP right now by anyone but China will cripple China because of a lot of reasons that have to do with their financial system, even though it did not happen on their side of the...

    Canadian Commentator Gets It Right

    You know the problem is hopeful wishing by claiming something that isn't all that true. The press doesn't vote and the press wasn't the only group that trashed the republican candidates in 2008, the republicans did a d*mn good job doing that too. But the speculation about obama seems to also...

    Islamist cleric Anwar al-Awlaki killed in Yemen

    I'm glad he is dead but on the other hand there is a problem that maybe a few of us see. We should have captured him, put him on trial and executed him under our laws. But instead we showed the world we are a nation of men (and women) and not a nation of laws. Pretty d*mn sad when you think...

    Need help with rear end issue.

    I got to ask, how does turning the wheels move the fluid from the center to the axles when the fluid level isn't high enough?

    New viscus cluch fan and better mpg

    Thanks for all of that, it is good to know. Glad you got that fixed but a 466 with a viscos clutch fan? I would think they would use a Horton electric at the least.

    Saw Ford Transits being tested

    I don't see the big deal with a change, the econoline is old, albeit a solid name but times change and we are in a global market so if they can save a buck in producing something, they need to go for it. As for GM, the writing is on the wall, they are on borrowed time and have been since they...

    Need help with rear end issue.

    I said - I know many of you will disagree with me but I don't have to worry about it, I have 100 years of axle engineering from the companies who make the axles behind my position while flushing is a gimic to drawn in more money for the quickie oil change places. maybe you missed that...

    The Bully In the White House

    Well.. of course there are examples, but putting it the context of Ford, the WH didn't "demand" that they pull the ad, it was truly in part of the rotation of the series. As for examples, there are a lot of them, the WH under Bush, Clinton and Bush II all put pressure on companies like Proctor...

    Genius .... and Boobus .....

    Well the other side of the coin is that if we have a true two party system, then the people can only fire the one who is in office at the time of the problems (first carter, then bush, maybe obama) but it isn't because we are choosing at the better candidate in the race - just the opposite - we...

    Need help with rear end issue.

    Sawdust is an old trick used to quiet things up, been used since the 20's. OK first thing - forget Lucas, unless you want to trash your rear axle, forget it. Lucas is great if you want to sell it but to use it is another story. Second thing it is a semi-floating axle but with that said, the...

    The Bully In the White House

    The Ford issue, there isn't anything new that hasn't happened before.

    Cube Van MPG

    Whole different thing, the 3.73 puts the max in a different speed and works a bit to the sweet spot of the engine. The 6.0 has a different sweet spot speed and on top of that, may have a different profile on the ecm so it fuels the engine for that dually.

    Need help with rear end issue.

    Well there isn't anything to put into the rear end to make it quiet except sawdust. Any claim to make a rear end quiet is about the same as Obama being a libertarian. If there is a whining noise, then it could be a problem with the preload on the pinion or the bearings are not seated correctly...

    Saw Ford Transits being tested

    Got to tell you some disappointing news there OVM, they don't give a ****** *** * * about expediters. They, just like GM and Fhrysler, they don't even have expediters on the radar - very small market. Nope not me driving them around but I know they blew their chance a few times. Unlike other...

    Cube Van MPG

    Dropping it to the 3.73 may not give you what you want, you need to weigh out the savings that a change with all the accessories are going to give you against the added fuel used. You may find that the money spent on a proper gear change with the added deflectors and such may not be worth the cost.

    IRAN ships to protrol near american waters

    You know it is apparent that no one think to read actually what he said, it looked like he wasn't going to do a thing but shoring up his poll numbers by putting out a series of moves to look like he is going to do something proud. OK so he does bring ships here, there are an issue of some...

    20,000 heat seaking missiles missing

    You guys are funny. It don't matter, really because as I was saying since this idiotic idea of helping people win their country without knowing who they are all started, many of you were supporting it and now you have the result of what many have warned what would happen. You can't cry about...
