So apparently the goal here was to make a trucker version of Occupy Wallstreet, only occupy an interstate until Obama resigned. Millions were supposed to show up, but the number was closer to dozens with the plural being generous since I hear it only ended up being twelve trucks by some sources. The biggest problem with this protest is that truckers would have to waste fuel and time, something essential to their profession, in order for this to be successful. Not to mention thousands of trucks, coupled with all the normal vehicles, would probably make for a bit of an environmental disaster. I wonder what flavor America's air would taste like. I bet it'd be chewy.
 
This plan had win written all over it. I find it hard to believe it didn't work.
 
This is the ultimate degradation of government by party politics. We don't elect representatives who dedicate their lives to serving the needs of the people. No, the only needs they serve are the vested interests of whatever group they happen to be affiliated with. Politicians, of whatever party, are just different sides of the same coin.
