We live in an age where some stuff isn't readily available--it has to be dug out, researched, found within the paragraphs of pages. They obviously missed this guy's shit.
My definition of "In Time" is before the guy mounted the stairs to take his place on the dais.
They made a mistake. They admitted it. They fixed it. I'm happy that they did this, I initially thought they knew and were pragmatically (and painfully) tossing some slop to the hogs on the right. The fact that they didn't know makes me feel better about them, actually.
What more do you want them to do? Don't say "Go back in time and not make the mistake in the first place" because that is not possible. We cannot unring the bell.
What more would satisfy you? Should they drag the youngest member of the committee out to where the stage is being constructed, and sacrifice him or her to the God of Don't Ever Fuck Up Not Even Once OR ELSE?
What more should be done? What more can be done, save put the Lesson Learned in the turnover file for the next Inaugural Committee?
