[QUOTE="251, post: 1194275, member: 49141"] And if he is that friend of labor... you listen to that man. Because he's the only friend you've got. EXACTLY why I joined TDU. More rights for members, fight for better contract, and they have yet to tell me "I am lucky to have a job, quit making waves" The BA over at my barn and every other barn he covers (As well as a few other BA's in the current regime) are NO friends of labor. Not from my perspective and the perspective of thousands of teamsters in this local. Back them up all you want, it's your right as a free American, but you cannot deny that this local is divided. Divisions do not occur as a result of solid leadership my friend. I respect your position, and I respect your reasons for taking that position, but for the first time, YOU are in the minority with that position. As I said a few pages back in this thread, if an elected official decides he is only going to only take care of your friends, you better hope that the inner circle you create is larger than the group that are on the outside looking in. And when RIH was sleeping, he had that in spades. They have woken up over there, and they are PISSED. We campaigned there last night...holy sweet baby Jesus they want KR's head on a platter!
