Truth

"There's no such thing as a winnable war.
It's a lie we don't believe any more."

Thanks, but no thanks.

I have always wondered what gain is achieved by politicians/leaders resigning just after a crisis.

It seems like the easy way out - fail miserably at the job you've been entrusted with, and then when we need to ask you questions about how we ended up in a mess, make loud proclamations of condemnation and outrage, and then announce your resignation, attempting to accrue mileage by looking like a martyr for the cause. Easily done. You won't have to defend your actions or be held responsible.

I'd rather they stayed all in their posts and were hauled over the coals appropriately.
