Hey, Shawn, I watched "Mississippi Burning" on my DVR a few
nights back. Good movie, well made, but way, way black 'n' white
in its moral orientations: FBI good, rednecks bad. You remember
when Bill Clinton said he remembered black churches being burned
when he was a boy, and it turned out there never had been any such
epidemic of church burnings? "Mississippi Burning's" opening
credits show one after another firebombing of...black churches!
Suppose Bill Clinton "remembered" his history from a movie, as
Ronald Reagan was so often accused of doing?
