It's just a couple of weeks since Obama took office and he is off to a disastrous start. Nominating cabinet appointees who don't want to pay their taxes isn't exactly setting the example Obama promised us.
First Richardson drops out because of shady bond deals in Arizona. Then Geithner reveals he oops forgot to pay his taxes, but coughed up the money and all is forgiven. Now Daschle seems to have the same problem with tax amnesia and has dropped out.
Yesterday the president sat down with five networks to say he "screwed up." A brilliant PR move on his part, admitting he was wrong and promising to set things right. Other presidents would have made excuses and stonewalled.
Regardless of what you think of Obama, he has a good sense of portraying an honest and decent image -- until the next screw up at least.
