American Idiot

OK, I'm neither a political insider nor an economic guru, yet even I have the basic common sense to know that the stimulus bill was a dumb idea when the main driver is public spending rather than private enterprise (the latter via tax cuts and incentives).

Now, it appears that finally our vice president has figured out that perhaps it was too.

The salient question here is this: When will the president figure this out? And since when is "sorry" good enough when billions of taxpayer dollars are at stake?
