Jealousy

The other day I wrote about 140 words to note that nobody admits failure anymore, not in the movie biz and certainly not the White House.
Today, Ellen Goodman, the syndicated columnist, writes about the year about to end:
"Denial was in, repentance was out. To err was human, to admit it was a strategic blunder."
Don’t you just hate it when somebody else demonstrates how to say things with brevity and wit? I do.
