I heard a lot of grumbling when Tom Daschle pulled out of the running as Secretary of Health and Human Services. Grumbling which became articulated speech when White House Resident Obama said, literally, that he'd "screwed up" and that he had to own up to his mistake, by trying to support Daschle even in light of his not having paid taxes. I actually heard one friend of mine say, "Here we go again." As if nothing had changed between the previous administration and the current one. Excuse me? When did He Who Shall Not Be Named ever apologize for any move he made during his entire eight years in office? Have people forgotten his self-dubbing as The Decider? Come on. If the guy in the big white house can't be infalliable, it's at least refreshing to know he's savvy enough to call himself on his own shit.
