Then dont ask a question you dont like the answer too.
And your a bitter welder, arent you?
Dont you have more things to bash Bob and the No voters about?
Lets hear you whine and cry about the T/A that failed and the money you lost.
Has the Supreme Court Ruled on this answer of yours?
Or is it another Stock Clerk wannabe legal expert answer?
By the Way I have some more bashing and Legal Information for you. Maybe you should try taking your legal road show and all your expert opinions further into the IAM and stop some of this BS. Spend more time focused on the IAM corruption and leave the AA issues to us.
