If you have a family and a career and you work for a large company that might be influenced by political pressure you could be excused for not being so brave.

I certainly wouldn't resign because a few pouty woutys have a problem with me.

Now, that being said you have to stand for something and when worst comes to worst, you have hopefully raised your family in a manner that they would stand with you.

I also understand the problem alot of people might have just not wanting the issue and therefore hiding themselves. Well if you have to do that then do it, but if somebody finds out who you are, don't be a coward.

Far better it is to dare mighty things, and win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by defeat, then to take rank with those poor souls who live in the gray twilight that knows not victory nor defeat.

If you don't mean it, don't say it, if you mean it then say it, and if you do say it stand by it. let your yes mean yes and your no mean no. Overall, don't be a coward.

Darn Good Advise. Sometimes, I say what I mean but it is not really what I meant to say. I'm still working on it, even though I'm a nobody.

Nowadays, when someone resigns, it is often because they have been given the option of resigning or being fired. I suspect that is what happened to the FReeper White House journalist under discussion.

It is easy to be brave when you have little to lose.

But when you live to the limit of your income, you are in effect trading your soul for the good life. You have become addicted to your lifestyle and you lose the option of speaking your mind.
