(January 17, 2007) As Transgressions Go By Chairman (DCP) Carter is not one to learn much from the past, including autogenous mistakes; one might think given the nature of recent mistakes – transgressions – including a semi-public apology for one, he might be somewhat more careful. One conclusion is DCP lives his life sprinting from one visceral reaction to another. React, do not think.
