I think his point was that JP's actions have often been detrimental to the interests of the pilots he is supposed to be representing. When there has been windfalls often it has been a regional airline or pilot group that has benefitted. The fact that we think you are an idiot is another topic entirely. All kidding aside, you make a tough, but rather admirable choice, supporting a man who's popularity has been waining since the announcement of the merger. Do you have a specific instance of how he helped you that might change my own growing negative perception of the man and how close to the crack he chooses to sleep?

Touche.. I understand, as of late, his popularity is in a downward slide. I also agree with your points you make..

Just to make it clear, I wasn't saying the moves he has made during in the merger have been great for CAL/UAL pilots. I know some of the decisions he has made, have been negative towards legacy pilots.

I will step back and point out that what he did for my family is personal and had nothing to do with the merger.

Well, there is certainly some merit in that.
