JonnyReb,
While I agree with many sentiments being expressed, I disagree with some, and your post directly above this contains one. I think it will be an expensive battle, but not a losing one. There's too many of us who realize that our contracts may be over, but the Oath we took was taken seriously, and has no expiration date because it is in effect until the day after we die. At least that is the way I see mine, and know many who feel the same exact way. So I believe we will win in the end, but there will be a steep price we will pay for that victory.
