I like it. I stand by and watch some leaders stubbornly refuse any culpability at all no matter how universal the detractors, and other leaders crumble at the first sign of frission. Clearly both are extreme reactions, and problematic. I (we?) want leaders who don&#x27;t pull a GW Bush and stick their fingers in their ears for all criticism. We also don&#x27;t want people like the CMC chairwoman who give up so easily. I&#x27;m not sure what the middle ground is - maybe Nixon? You resist for a while, then you give up. And in return, we let you &quot;retire&quot; with some semblance of dignity. Or you resist for a while, the attacks fade away, and you live to fight another day. Seems fair to me.
