[QUOTE="MrFedEx, post: 1033188, member: 12508"] While I disagree with the Obama comment, you're right about the Democrats deserting us on the FAA Reauthorization Bill. Apparently, they like Fred's money just as much as the GOP does. Obama made me gag when he had the meeting with Smith last year and described him (Smith) in glowing terms. Some of you who have been around a long time might remember that Smith had a similar meeting with Bill Clinton, not long before Fred's special RLA language clause was slipped into the FAA Act back in 1996 at the last second. Ted Kennedy was one of the few to point out this sleight-of-hand maneuver. My belief is that Fred spreads his wealth across both parties, although he prefers the GOP. This speaks volumes about our public servants, doesn't it? When Fred twisted arms by threatening to kill a 777 purchase with Boeing, I called, wrote, and emailed both of the Senators from Washington State, neither of whom would take-up the issue because they knew they really work for Boeing and Smith...not us.
