I disagree. The honorable thing to do in all such situations is to immediately resign, in public, and to **state your reasons**.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the President has threatened me with a primary challenge from $NAME, because $REASON. Therefore, I am resigning $POSITION, effective immediately. I will take no further questions. It has been my highest honor to serve my country as $POSITION.

Thank you all, and farewell."

@elliemasce @rushtheband @stevensongs Au contraire. We do care. We care so much that we'll hold the line for you. Without anyone saying a word. We'll just do it.

That's just how the men do.

When is one of the intended victims of this kind of bullshit going to turn around and say, publicly, "That's not blackface, nobody thinks it's blackface, and you don't either." They're full of shit, you know they're full of shit, everybody else knows they're full of shit, and, at some level, **they** know they're full of shit.

You're going down anyway, why not take an honor guard* with you?

@nubwtf @JohnCleese Yeah, because telling the boss the bad news is such a common thing in Russian history...

Just ask Nicholas II.

@LJS527 He's got a charisma that you either totally get, or you... don't.

Dude's been annoying the piss out of me since the 1980s. Whatever wavelength he broadcasts on, my tuner can't pick it up. I can't deny that it's real, though.

Then again, a lot of people liked Kenny G.
