Not themselves. And although I can't say that I have agreed with all their doings over the last 12 years, I can say that their actions were never out of line and in general were for the greater good of the majority of pilots. I truly trust them and can honestly say my union speaks for me.

Now why the discrepancy with your union? Is it the memberships fault? A bunch of whiney, "conspiracy theorists?" Or is it a longtime lack of leadership and oversight by the union official? Again, why the difference?
