ALPA National website. If you don't believe it, then resign from ALPA. Is it so hard to believe that Republicans are anti union. They rag on unions all the time.

Go to the ALPA National website and read this article for yourself. Still don't believe it? Not surprised.

Your disrespect for the the President and our former SECDEF is telling.
At least they were pilots, not Lawyers like the Clintons.
Pres. Bush made it through Air Force Pilot training and did fly the F-106.
Ask anybody who has flown a century series fighter – these were a handful
to put it mildly. Show some respect you RJ wonders.

Skygirl – get some flight time or get of this forum – it is for Airline Pilots not bitching, wining, liberal socialist like you.

Velocipede and mike734 – you call Bush and Rumsfeld criminals?
Typical democratic, union, spoiled child behavior. Let me guess – you
guys did not come through the military route?
I for one, agree with the proposal – ‘transportation workers’ like you should be arrested and charged as terrorist in case of a strike.

I am happy that you acknowledged that I was indeed "wining" on Thanksgiving Day instead of "whining" Had a great bottle of Sonoma County's Jordan Chardonnay. It compliments turkey quite nicely and has a wonderful bouquet!

Dems talk the talk about labor and the "poor" etc, but they're as in bed with big business as the repubs (Clinton did that). The last REAL democrat this country had was Jimmy Carter.
I'm a Democrat, African AMerican and 17 year Army vet, including two tours in Bosnia and recently Iraq. And I wasnt a fancy pants pilot that lived on a nice air base for four months. I am a grunt. So, what are you talking about?

I think it has to do with the fact that although he served his country selflessly for 17 years, he's still being called a "Godless commie culture dem"

Thank you for your service to our country N6724G, it is much appreciated.

Actually, I did not. You should read for comprehension and not let your guilt at your scabular behavior carry you away.

I don't know about mike734, but personally I have over 5200 hours of military flight time.

And it isn't surprising that a B6 scab would agree with that kind of ludicrous proposal.
