I'm not disagreeing with your theory, but only wanting to point out that the UAW stayed neutral in the Clinton/Obama race; and that Mr Gettelfinger is following tradition in retiring after this term because of the UAW age requirements.

Very Gutsy sitting in the shadows of your 2 foes. Good job, Thank you!

I'd like to bend him over with no vaseline like He wanted to do to us.

You've got my vote too!

THERE'S A PECKING ORDER! ACH plants get postings periodically. Exp. KCAP and KTP posted for I/E's at ACH plants earlier in the year where no one was laid off.

Pump, Same thing to happen to Indy after closed? Carbon Mtrs.

Keep workin hard Boys and Girls cause this ain't over yet! http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=CN...;show_article=1

Fuck you Foreign Car loving Bastards! I work for Blue, I drive Blue! NO foreign cars park in my drive-EVER!

Of course, it was their work; just like some people went from MTP to KTP following the Nav/Exp.

What kind of Union guy does this in the first place? Forget what wasn't heard at the meeting! Out with them! NEXT!!!!!!!!!!!

Aren't they actually the weeks of 7/20 and 7/27?

Just wanted those that hadn't seen the Transit to know what we're getting.

Nice pictures of the Transit and Fiesta on this web site! http://www.thefordstory.com/

234,000 miles on my 2000 Taurus 24V from Atlanta; the best Taurus of many I've owned! My 2003 24V (110,00 miles) from Chicago sucks in comparison; it's actually rusting on the panel under the driver's door. Hardly any paint under the trunk deck, power steering pump shot. Learned my lesson and got my F-150 from Norfolk before it closed!

I've heard part of the same thing about the lump sum bonuses and sub; plus no more "pay in lieu" for vacation, no Christmas bonus, lose one week of vacation, and higher co-pays or deductibles.

VEBA. Maybe someone else has previously stated this, but don't forget Ford workers that ONE DOLLAR of a previous raise is diverted into VEBA. I've been told that this is still the case. GM and Chrysler took their Dollar raise while we voted to fund our retirees. Can someone tell me if every hour I work my dollar is reaching this fund? Can we ALL be shown? We don't need equal pattern bargaining if WE are funding part of this fund. This was supposed to bring job security like ALL the concessions we've previously encountered.

Just wondering why you can't take a Buy Out? Isn't the 28yr "Bridge" in the contract?

Wasn't there a similar case involving a couple of female I/E's last year at Lima?

It is a BIG DEAL! When I make reservations I call a company with domestic cars and demand one -or nothing!

Unbelievable! Did you see the 2 UAW/ Chrysler workers on Fox News' Huckabee tonight? Everyone said tune in and watch us present our side of the story. These 2 were probably pried away from the Thanksgiving table where they'd been gnawing on bones for 4 days. THEY MADE US LOOK LIKE STUPID FAT BAFOONS! They didn't know they were loans? When it came time to mention a cut in benefits all they could think of was that Dependent College Scholarships had been suspended at Chrysler! How hard is it to tell Huckabee that the $70 Hr figure has legacy costs built into it? I am so pissed!

Strong Locals are able to get 90 day Rolling TLO's using inverse seniority first. It's Win-Win in hard economic times.

Why not draw the 85% and work somewhere?

I definitely agree Frank! The wife and I were on a dealer's lot today and she commented how it was ugly like the Toyota Scion "Baby Coffin", just a bigger box.

Captain Lewis, Is that you?
