The Republicans (not RINOS) may not be labor friendly but they are for policies that foster growth and a robust economy. Since our jobs hinge on such an economy you can say that Conservative policies espoused by some Republicans is more pilot friendly than the stagnation culture of dependency established by the Dems. I submit into evidence the last 6 years.
Now if we could find a party or politician that would fight to repeal or remove us from the RLA? That would be pilot friendly.
And Buzz I'm with you. I don't contribute to the PAC because of the list of candidates they support. I remember seeing Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid at the top of the list lately. Not gonna do it. Wouldn't be prudent....
