[Vision2020] Lott-Law

[Melynda Huskey]

What's especially appealing about Lott and Law as apologizers is that they 
apparently feel that their words need bear no relation to their actions:  
Law couldn't be sorrier about how this all turned out, and now that he's 
resigned, he's going to take a well-earned vacation.  Lott is so sorry that 
now he reveals he's been a supporter of affirmative action all 
along--despite that pesky voting record.

Meanwhile, dubious citizens and parishioners exchange half-humorous glances: 
  "Do they think we didn't notice?  How stupid have we let them think we 
are?"

That would be the risk of extreme privilege, I think--you get used to the 
idea that your word is law, and then you start trying out the "Fiat lux" 
stunt.
