The JFK Presidential Library gives a Profile in Courage Award to public officials who took a stand that took a lot of integrity and nerve. Two of the laureates for 2009 who are being honored are, fittingly enough, Sheila Bair and Brooksley Born, two public servants whose courage has embarrassed three administrations including the current one. The Kennedy Library deserves its own profile in courage award for providing the exclamation point.
