E-Mail From: Alex Leslie - GM Health Insurance Dropped!
I know you all saw that Delphi dropped med. coverage for all of their non union retirees. I see this coming very fast for all of us. Those salary forms we all signed during the 80s and the "early out" paper work gave G.M. the right make that kind of change. Changes held up in the first law suit filed by thousands a few years back, but they didn't take it to the next level of courts. The first level just covered the paper work. We all were hired with the "Confirmed Promise" by all of management of FREE everything if we made it through 30 years of active service. I recall telling (selling) that to a lot of people I hired, as most of you do. It is late but we need to get ready to file another suit to slow down or stop this happening to us. I just joined the Overthehillcarpeople.com group and that is a good place to gather up additional support.
Let me hear what you think! Plus send this on to any others that you have an E mail address, if you think it should be passed on.

Dear Jack,
Thank you for the excellent service you are providing all us “Over the Hillers” and for the mouse pad which I’m now using for the first time.
I am writing to request that you post this letter notifying everyone that Cindy Wilczynski will be retiring on April 1, after 39 years of service to United Motors Service, United Delco, ACDelco and GM Parts. Cindy called me yesterday to inform me of her decision and sounds quite elated about her soon to be entry into the ranks of the unemployed.
Cindy was my dear friend, partner and invaluable aid for seven years while I was Director of Operations and General Sales Manager. She also was the Executive Secretary for Stu Wagner, Pat Kane, Bob Smith, Art Ross, Gil Cashion and presently Duane Miller.
Our company is losing a great lady who was loved by all that knew her. She simply was the best.
Best wishes to all,
Art Schwerzel

This is how the French treat the USA and it’s FLAG! Why do Americans buy cars from the French, Germans and the Japanese? They all look down on America!
French Tabloid Takes Aim at the U.S.
By JAMEY KEATEN, AP
PARIS (Feb. 6) - Forget about all that trans-Atlantic talk of kiss-and-make-up following the "Freedom Fries"-era disagreements between France and the United States. There's a new tabloid on Paris newsstands offering an alternate take: "L'Anti-Americain."
|
|
|
|
|
|
AP A man reads the January edition of a new French satirical newspaper that blasts the U.S. |
|
|
|
|
|
The cheeky newspaper's editor-in-chief says Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice can have a free issue of the satirical monthly when she's in Paris next week.
She'll need to have packed her sense of humor. This month's issue features an entry in a bogus George W. Bush diary that reads: "Ask the CIA: Where's China?"
Rice and her French counterparts hope to rebuild ties bruised by disagreements over the U.S.-led war in Iraq. In Paris, a stop on her swing through Europe and the Middle East, she'll give a major speech in which she's expected to lay out her vision for American diplomacy.
But on French and American streets, mutual distrust still simmers.
On the day Bush won re-election in November, freelance journalist Frederic Royer decided to tap into the zeitgeist and start "L'Anti-Americain."
The French-language paper offers an unflattering, if tongue-in-cheek, look at America's perceived shortcomings - from fast food to the U.S. detention center at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.
Cartoons and editorials featuring sharp-edged critiques of American politicians - mostly Bush - are a fixture of mainstream French dailies. Royer's monthly strives to pack more punch. But he insists it's good-natured ribbing.
"We're so invaded by American culture, we can't resist," he said.
The first edition in December sold 7,500 copies, advertised only by word-of-mouth and its eye-catching cover, Royer said.
Its Bush re-election headline read: "France offers political asylum to Americans!"
The cover of January's issue features a voluptuous blonde clad only in an American flag beside a doctored photo of Bush as a paperboy, proudly pointing to his presidential seal.
"The name is 'anti-American' for laughs, but it's really anti-Bush," said Royer.
By ordering troops into Iraq over European protest and refusing to back international efforts to curb global warming, Bush looks to some Europeans like a cowboy thumbing his nose at the world.
Conversely, some Americans see France as ungrateful for U.S. help during World War II.
"These grudges will probably last a long time. They go deep beyond the White House and Washington, and out to Middle America," said political scientist Steven Ekovich of the American University of Paris.
Royer acknowledges the success of "L'Anti-Americain" rests on Bush providing good material.
"The danger is to do something too basic, too stupidly anti-American," Royer said. But he expects success "because of the ambient air - maybe what I think a lot of French people are feeling right now."
The next time you make a vehicle purchase make sure it's a Ford or a GM. They are American owned companies!
