Romney's plan:

-Amend NLRA to explicitly protect the right of business owners to allocate their capital as they see fit
-Reverse executive orders issued by President Obama that tilt the playing field toward organized labor
-Amend NLRA to guarantee the secret ballot in every union certification election
-Amend NLRA to guarantee that all pre-election campaigns last at least one month
-Support states in pursuing Right-to-Work laws
-Prohibit the use for political purposes of funds automatically deducted from worker paychecks

and anyone wonders why a labor union endorses Obama.

A finger in the dam, which is better than the flood.

So you choose to ignore the fact that Mr. Obama, without so much as a phone call to ALPA, went ahead and approved the merger which completely eliminated an opportunity for a quid pro quo to drop the TRO which currently ties the hands of sUAL ALPA, and pay scale improvement but instead point to the Age 65 Rule change as an example of Republican anti-labor positions. Brother, our economy is in shambles, mostly as a result of the Community Reinvestment Act and to a lesser extent by the Bush Administration. Now we have a Democrat in office and we have a 16 Trillion debt and a President who has made some unsound bets in green technology (Solyndra, Fisker, A123 writ large). We have the Dodd-Frank bill that attempted to fix the mortgage market but left the door open to ambulance chasing lawers because of the "open to intreptation" what a "bad loan is" and as a result the banks are slow to loan on homes. You want to blame Bush, go right ahead, but you still have to wake up in the morning and live in this economy

Another four years of Obama and we will be a third world country. How will that impact the airline industry and your job? Wise up. This guy is the most unqualified person to be POTUS. Community organizer? GMAB.

Well put. ---------

14.7 people now on food stamps. Don't think any of them will be buying airline tickets.

And anotherthing....Got this from AmericanThinker.co

From day one Benghazi has been a complete disaster for the President, which is why he and his media cronies have tried so hard to cover it up. Despite their best efforts, the story has gone viral. The best evidence of this was shown by Gallup. In the three days after the leak of the emails detailing the firefight, Obama's approval rating dropped seven points. What Obama did in Benghazi bothers me more than anything else he's done. Having had limited experiences with the military and family in the military, I felt an instant camaraderie with those heroes who fought to save the lives of those consulate employees. When I read the blow-by-blow account of what happened, I was in tears. The revelations that have come out since have only served to enrage me. You don't have to be a soldier or have loved ones who are in the military to feel deeply betrayed by this event. You don't have to be a Republican. You don't have to be an independent. You just have to be an American. The truth about Benghazi penetrates to one's soul. Upon hearing it once must either decide to cease their support of Barack or choose to believe it simply isn't true. The more people find out about this, the worse Obama's support will crater. That being said, I can hear AT readers screaming "but why didn't Romney bring it up in the debate?!?!" I'll tell you why. Romney is seeing the same trends in the internal polling we are, and he knows he is going to win. To walk onto a national stage and accuse a man, who is still seen by a majority of Americans as likeable, of killing an ambassador through incompetence and then leaving Navy SEALs to die in order to cover it up, is just about the most polarizing thing a candidate could do. If it's not played absolutely right, it could easily backfire and hurt Romney. At this point the most important job Romney has, indeed all of us have, is to defeat Barack Obama in the election. Anything that puts that at risk that isn't worth it. The truth will come out on Benghazi. Heads will roll. Obama's head won't, but then again it never was going to. The legal forces surrounding him have made him untouchable. I don't like it. In fact I hate it. However the best thing for Romney to do is to let senators, congressmen, Fox News, and websites like American Thinker make the story go viral. Romney realized that and went out there and looked more presidential than the president, and his favorability ratings overtook Barack's as a result.
Obama's campaign is showing the signs of a presidency going down in flames: sputtering messaging that changes every day, creepy ads comparing voting for Barack to losing your virginity, binders, Big Bird, money being pulled out of "battleground states", heavy campaigning in deep blue states, polls collapsing, and a challenger who looks more like the president than the president. It all points to a coming wave that will wash Barack and his allies in the Senate out of office.

Age 65 was the biggest disaster to hit this profession..ever.

Worse than 9/11, we had control of this football and it was fumbled. Who did that for us? Oh yeah, king stupid, John Micah. (R) Florida. With an assist from Captain Fat Mustache, John Prater.

Thanks, morons...I guess you've gotten yours.

That being said, Obama is going to win this election...book it. He's been great for the stock market and corporate profits. And he got Osama.

Ask then-UAL MC Morse or CAL MC Pierce if they allowed our legislative committee get involved with the DOJ. THAT is where your anger should be directed

You R's make me laugh. You watched your pension get sold out for pennies on the dollar, age 65, denial of loan guarantees for your airline several times (despite being one of the 2 REAL victim airlines of 9/11) and the US economy come to brink of complete insolvency, and yet you want ANOTHER R in the White House?

I'll ask one question for those of you complaining about the economy.... What was the stock market at the day Obama took office?

If you HONESTLY believe that you are going to be BETTER off with President Romney in terms of your airline career, you should probably study some more history.
