Gingrich '08 Slogan? "Honesty = Best Policy"

A whiff of honesty and accountability: Former Speaker Newt Gingrich -- a likely '08 presidential candidate -- actually apologized for making false statements about 9/11 hijackers entering the U.S. through Canada (none did). Kudos, Newt.

See, that didn't hurt. That wasn't so bad. Mistakes are human, and people can be forgiven for them.

CUT TO: The Bush administration never, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever apologizing or admitting a single mistake.
