[QUOTE="upscorpis, post: 545462, member: 2017"] This campaign is pretty rich. Fred S has been using political clout to hold this exception in place for years. Once McCain lost, he new the giblets were about to hit the gravy. This was the BIG reason Fred S became personally involved in his campaign. The campaign is a desperate move. As others have stated, there has been "gentlemen's agreement" between the companies for years to not sling mud. Now the mud is flying and to boot, it is an out and out twisting of reality. The RLA exception has been carefully nurtured by Fred S via more underhanded influence than anything UPS has done. Now that the jig is up, he lashes out in a last gasp. I can only hope the facts speak for themselves. The below article is dated 2005 but it does detail some of Fredex's political maneuvers. It's long so I suggest you start on page 8.
