How Could You Do That?!: Abdication of Character, Courage, and Conscience by Laura C. Schlessinger

4.0

While I don't agree with many of Schlessinger's views, particularly her views on any sexuality other than hetero, her misogyny, closed-mindedness, and her personal hypocrisy, I do appreciate her belief in behaving with honor and the importance of choosing character, courage, and conscience over immediate desires. Her "go do the right thing" mantra has always resonated with me, and she freely admits that there is often plenty of external costs to doing so. Because of this, it's easy to start to manipulate your moral code and values into those that are more convenient. I'm glad I revisited her. This book is a keeper and full of words of wisdom even though I very much dislike her as a person.
