THE UAW BACKS OFF
Matt at Blackfive reports that the UAW parking fiasco that we first blogged about last week has been “resolved:”
I just received word that the UAW is backing off.
The US Marine Corps Reserve Battalion Commander had already made the decision to not allow any drilling Marine Reservists to park in the UAW lot – he thinks it’s “parking silliness” and his Marines need to “focus on more important things”. He’s right, of course. His Marines are training for their next deployment.
Then, after thinking the issue settled this morning, the CO receives a call from UAW President Ron Gettelfinger (a former Marine) who told him that he just reversed the policy.
I wouldn’t be surprised if the Marines refuse to park there.
Yup. The damage has been done. As Lt. Col. Joe Rutledge, commanding officer of the battalion’s active duty instructors, told the Detroit News in this morning’s edition:
“You either support the Marines or you don’t.”
