I wouldn't confuse the Atlas Chairman calling the Polar Chairman a liar as unprofessional. I would just call it well overdue in the light of all the facts past and present, especially when the Polar Chairman is using his lies and insinuations to incite more hatred among the groups .... again. Think of it as "calling it as it is" or a wake up call to keep an incident happening somewhere down the road or in flight with the merged crewmember groups.
Dancing around the Polar Chairman's actions is just going to cost someone their job or worse in the future.
Guess I should add that the
Atlas For Teamsters link since they have a message for 08-30-2008 and they will most probably be the next bargaining agent for the two combined companies. They have a text and flash audio link on the main page.
