An adult in charge

Does this quote, from President Barack Obama, signal that we have an adult in the White House?

“I’ve got to own up to my mistake, which is that ultimately it’s important for this administration to send a message that there aren’t two sets of rules,” Mr. Obama said in an interview with NBC News. “You know, one for prominent people and one for ordinary folks who have to pay their taxes.”

I mean, admitting when you err is, well, one of those things that separates the well-adjusted and mature adult from the juveniles of this world.

(Of course, we will have to see if the president learns anything from this….)
