Carl, you have forgotten your history over the last decade. The Comair and ASA pilots wanted scope which bound Delta Air Lines. ALPA said "no, the only party at the table with Delta Air Lines is, and ever will be, Delta pilots." When the Comair and ASA pilots sued ALPA defended the right of the Delta pilots to bargain exclusively with their management.

The DPA's false allegations against straw men will do nothing to advance the contract or careers of Delta pilots. Delta pilots have been subjected to ten years of crap by people like you who want to rally the troops against our brothers. As stated so well by a former NWA pilot at a C44 meeting "NWA pilots did not get date of hire, stop telling us fixing scope will result in Comair pilots getting date of hire." (I laughed and clapped as did most of the room)

Blaming others for our problems is tired. We (and you) must take responsibility for our contract.
