Folks, this is the new coordinated mantra from the Special Committee flight pay loss guys. They're attempting to equate voting with vigorous selling and distorting facts in order to get something passed. It's easy to knock down, but it will be the signature of these attack dogs.

When you hear these guys say this, the answer is simple. Bill voted NO and said he didn't think it was enough. That's it. He didn't lie and distort facts, then spend untold dues dollars selling his NO position. Many of the YES voters for this rejected TA did just that. If they'd only voted and given their reasoning as to why, they'd probably be safe. That's not what they did however.

Translation: The guys that I owe all my flight pay loss to are in big trouble right now. If they go, no extra pay for me. Posting on APC will no longer be profitable. Got to attack NO voting reps with everything I've got.

Pathetic.
