As I sit here watching the news, every story seems to be nothing more than someone giving excuses and apologies on behalf of companies, government agencies or themselves for things gone wrong, mishaps, missteps and failures. Excuses and apologies for hospital mishaps in treating Ebola victims, excuses for the VA, apologies from politicians, etc. Shouldn't we be hearing solutions to the problems to bolster public confidence instead, or are there none?

Accountability. Nobody wants it any more and what's worse is that a growing portion society seems to just accept that and allow the accountability to be doffed.

There is a fine line between an explanation and an excuse. I probably wasn't a very good commander because I always wanted to know what contributed to a successful or failed mission.
What troubles me the most today are the bald faced lies that are being foisted upon us by those in authority. The best example that I can think of right at this moment is the assurances by the administration that our borders are under control. They aren't under control, they are so completely out of control that the leftist news media is even reporting it now.
