Too bad. He was one of the few I actually liked.

Default What about this resignation?

I don't know why anybody would want to serve in the government in this capacity anyway. The hours are terribly long, the responsibility heavy, and the thanks from many in the public....just not there.

BTW, speaking of people leaving or possibly getting fired.....Kweisi MFune also resigned today from the head of the NAACP. Now.....how many Dems on here want to make up a little story surrounding this resignation???

Default .

Ridge had always complained about funding and lack of power to really do anything in his position. I'm not surprised.
