The editorial that appeared last week says “Sometimes, you have to admit you're wrong. And, we were wrong.”

The article, which is entitled ‘Obama earned the low ratings,’ goes on to say that the Obama presidency has them “yearning for the good ol' days when we were at least winning battles in Iraq.”

The Billings Gazette says they admit that they didn't think that things could get much worse than the presidency of George W. Bush, but that the number of "bungled or blown" policies by President Obama led them to the decision to apologize.

The Gazette points to the bungled rollout of ObamaCare, the Bowe Bergdhal prisoner exchange, the growing scandal at the Veterans Administration, and wiretapping by the National Security Agency as examples of such policies.
