We all remember the cover ups and denials that we saw so much of in the last few years. I recall Obama, who wasn't even guilty of any crime, saying "I screwed up" with the whole Tom Daschle incident. Tom screwed up, yet he took the brunt of the blow. Despite the crimes and atrocities commited by the previous administration we never once heard that. Ever. No apology, no admission, just arguing and fighting. This early tomfoolery is very telling, as it shows that this admin. will tackle problems head-on when they arise, as opposed to burying their heads in the sand. Finally, a president who actually understands the word "responsibility" and, one who can spell it too!

You are so correct, these politicians who are screwed up, SHOULD be locked up. Joe citizen misses a tax payment and he has a date with Bubba! So of course they are going to apologetic, even contrite in the face of the public. And certainly the person who picked them has to admit guilt. What was he thinking? The media that so adored him is his best friend? Ha, that's a good one. There is going to be many apologies coming from this administration!
