Quote:fail in his duties.
Those are key words. In a general or ideal sense, I completely agree. And it is an unfortunate fact that we do see partisan hunger for power trumping effective governance.
Yet, it is not so simple. Where you or I might hold the conviction that an administration is acting in a manner which will likely lead to destructive consequences, what are we to do? Certainly, some people held that the clinton administration was such a beast. And I, presently, hold that the Bush administration is such a beast. If an administration member resigns on a point of important principle and speaks out publicly against the sitting administration, is this wrong?
