Colin Responds To The "Deborah Edgerly" Issue

I appreciate that you are friends with Deborah Edgerly, and take your comments with that grain of salt. I also agree that there is no doubt more to this story, and it may play out in her favor. We will all have to see what happens, and I for one await further insights and will suspend judgment.

However, 2 thinhttp://www.blogger.com/img/gl.link.gifgs regarding her being a scapegoat for nepotism:

1. Just because it happens a lot doesn't make it right. You know this, as does everyone who's made it out of the 3rd grade.

2. I'm trying to think of anyone else who could or WOULD call the OPD repeatedly to make sure that their child gets preferential treatment. Can't think of anyone. Certainly no elected official would risk that - assuming that they carried that much political weight. And certainly only a few appointed individuals have the clout to force something like that. So to suggest that everyone does it strikes me as a bit of a mis-characterization.

At least you're not arguing that it was somehow appropriate for her to get preferential for her family members.
