"A moderate by definition is one of three things; somebody who sits around and waits for a majority to form and then joins it, a conservative who is pro-choice, or a liberal."

- Historic UAW Leader Speaks Out for Retirees and Workers. Interview by Michael Westfall and UAW leader Whitey Hale. "WH: You have spent a lifetime in championing retiree’s issues. What are your thoughts on Gettelfinger taking his retirees to court to reduce their health care benefits?" -- WH: Being labeled, “ legacy cost” infuriates me. They forget that our retirees worked a lifetime to earn their negotiated pension. As far as Gettelfinger resorting to legal means to concession away our health care, this is wrong, wrong, wrong. For the life of me, I can’t figure out what would make the president of the UAW take such a position. To sum it up, Mike, it’s a disgrace. -- WH: Mike, I agree with your assessment of the attack on our pensions. This is why our workers should be able to elect union leaders. This would make them much more accountable to their members. -- MW: American workers are God fearing family people who care about our culture. I also believe that labor officials are not being held accountable for how they use their extensive political clout to exert moral and cultural changes in society. -- The quandary is that these labor officials want to be considered politically correct so they label moral issues as labor issues and then force their anti-family and anti-Biblical concepts onto the backs of their Judeo-Christian workforce.
