The Mahatma Gandhi once said something to the effect that decency is not merely an appeal to the court of justice, but an appeal to the court of conscience. He also said that a man can change, and may even choose other friends and colleagues, as long as he steadfastly refuses to compromise his principles. There was a picture in the newspapers over this past weekend, showing Moses Nagamootoo standing next to David Granger at a ceremony paying homage to Forbes Burnham. It was a sad and vexing spectacle of a man totally lacking conscience, absolutely compromising his principles and selling his soul to the highest bidder just for the taste of power.
