Tapped makes the case that Strom Thurmond came to repudiate his earlier racism -- but that Trent Lott hasn't repudiated that racism.
So maybe we shouldn't be appalled that blacks whose forebears were denied the right to vote in the South will likely serve on on a C-17 airlifter named after Thurmond -- but it will be a disgrace if anything is ever named after Trent Lott
