I'm not here to defend Herky...and the previous "SCAB" comment made was out of bounds.

However....DM is Vice chairman. I think comments made by MEC leaders, especially those that supported the LOA, need to be heard. The concerns about taking his comments out of context, however is entirely valid. You probably need to post the WHOLE response, then in your post point out which if any parts of the response are a concern to you. That way the intent of the message is not lost or taken out of the context. Just my suggestion...

Herky--you'll go a LOT farther if you can eat a little crow and apologize/retract that S word you threw around. You don't owe me anything, but you'll have more a voice with those listening if you can work with them a bit.
