Be careful how you use that word

From Ann Althouse: ""When you're attacked continually in American politics, you either give up or get disoriented or you either lose or leave...... or you persevere and show your resilience."Hillary Clinton makes an observation, and she's talking about herself. Of course, the same thing applies to President Bush. "Resilient" — it's a good word, a good substitute for relentless, remorseless, impervious, incurious..."

Now, now, Ms. Althouse, I doubt Senator Clinton intended anyone to make that connection...
