    The great Secret Service Directors & agents in history prided themselves on genuinely taking personal responsibility for failures.

        @BeschlossDC We only heard about these "failures" when deaths, attempted assassinations or injury occurred. @michelec64

        @BeschlossDC Might that come in part from coming for an era when more people in general took personal responsibility for failures?

        @StevenHerbert @BeschlossDC "Personal responsibility" is just that. Personal. Too many people judging people in the name of conservancy.

        @StevenHerbert @BeschlossDC Sick of hearing about pers resp from people other than myself. It is the crutch conservatives lean on. Guilt.

        @mind4ub @BeschlossDC So to you, no one should call for increased personal responsibility other than from themselves?
