On March 13th of this year Glenn Beck outlined the basics of the 912 Project. In his explanation he listed the 9 Principles and 12 Values that common sense people should use to make decisions in their lives. Principles and Values are the foundation that should guide us. During the campaign of '08 "Principles" and "Values" were words that were conspicuously missing from Barack Obama"s speeches. So were references to our Constitution and overspending. These are the MAIN issues of the people who have joined the 912 Project and attended the Tea Parties in April.
I have noticed in recent speeches and comments made by our new President that he has begun to use the phrase "Principles and Values" alot. Why? Is it that he hears our outrage and recognizes that we will not be silenced? Does he hear the footsteps of a rebellious and restless people?
In a speech he gave at an Arizona Commencement, he spoke of how the level of spending that the government was doing was "unsustainable." Is he kidding? Were the wrong words fed into his teleprompter by mistake? How can he speak of overspending given his record thus far in his term?
At a recent speech on National Security he chose to speak from the Rotunda of the National Archives. Again I ask why. Could it be that the echo of the rotunda made him sound more "godly?" Or could it have been that he was flanked in the television shot by copies of the Declaration of Independence and the CONSTITUTION?
It seems his image advisors are trying to make him more palatable to those of us that see him for what he is. They are attemting to give him a makeover by dressing him in a new jacket of common sense, morality and patriotism. They are trying to hide the bulge of socialism and the disfigurement of dishonesty. They are hoping we won't notice the obvious. This jacket does not belong to him and quite frankly, it comes nowhere close to fitting!
Don't be fooled by the new jacket. Look underneath at the mannequin.
Thoughts from the road concerning the trucking industry, newsworthy events, politics and whatever crosses my mind.

See NYC! The Obama Way!
The Obama administration has developed a new way of raising funds to pay off the 12.8 Trillion debt. They are testing the idea of leasing out Air Force One to tour groups for sight seeing runs whenever the President is not using the plane.
On Monday they made their first test run over New York City. There were no paying customers on board for this inaugural flight however. The fuel and maintenance will be picked up by the taxpayers to the tune of about $325,000. (more or less)
Apparently they forgot to ask for the proper permits required of tour operators also. Numerous office workers in high rise buildings near ground zero ran for their lives when they saw a jumbo jet wing tip outside their window. They may have over reacted. I can't imagine why they would panic at such a site. After all, large jets and tall buildings go so well together.
Call now to reserve your seat. Space may be limited on future flights.
Bon Voyage!

The 9-12 Project and what it Means
Please go to www.the912project.com and read what it is all about. Even if you don't watch Glenn Beck or Fox News. Read the mission statement and click on the tabs for the 9 Principles and the 12 Values. If you agree with most of them (7 of 9 principles) (10 of 12 values) then you think like a 912'er.
It is not about Racism. It is not about parties. It is not an anti Obama site. It definitely is not an EXTREMIST site. It is common people like me and you agreeing that we need to get back to the place we were on 9-12-01. when we all dropped our differences and offered up our time, sweat, money and BLOOD to help and support one another. We were neighbors, co-workers, fellow students and moms and dads that knew instinctively that we need each other. We live in a great country but we have lost our way. Both parties are to blame. What we need now is common sense, leadership and a desire to return to the country our forefathers built for us, based in the constitution and limited government interference. Our rights are God given. No government should ever be allowed to take them away. Please read the site! It is important!
