It appears that the mission was not so well accomplished as Dubbyuh's cheery, grossly overpoduced photo-op and sound bite laden speech would have us believe.

So much for "Mission Accomplished"...And where are those Iraqi citizens throwing flowers at the feet of US soldiers as they enter Falluja? Why did the offensive begin after the election? Why, after mishandling Iraq and the "war on Terror" so badly, did nearly 57 million people vote Dubbyuh back into office? Are that many people really that stupid?
 
Did you know that wars are made of more than one mission? I know you like beating a dead horse, but it has been explained over and over and over again, that the sign reflected that the SHIP's mission was accomplished as well as the mission of unseating Saddam. I know you are not THAT stupid and are just being an ass, but I still have to set the record straight so that others won't fall for your dumbass shit.

The "ship's mission"? It that somehow independant of the overall mission. And it certainly didn't mean that it carried out its orders correctly. It was an internationally televised broadcast, and the banner meant the mission to win the Battle of Iraq. As the President so bodly stated, "the battle for Iraq is over." What horrible judgement...

Yes, the ship's misson was independent of the overall mission. Just as the missions of the support units, the Special Ops units, the ground units, etc. They all had DIFFERENT missions and as they accomplished their missions, they were over.

During the first Gulf War our unit had the mission of taking Jaliba Airbase. We accomplished that mission. However, at that point, the Iraqi Army had not yet been pushed out of Kuwait. That did not take away from the fact that WE had accomplished our mission. Once that mission was over, we were tasked with another mission, to destroy the retreating Republican Guard units as they hightailed it back toward Baghdad. We also accomplished that mission. See, wars are made up of MANY missions. Just as D-Day was a mission, it did not in of itself end the war, but once the D-Day mission was completed, we were well on our way to winning. Get a clue.

Hey dumbass--yes it was independent of the overall mission. Who told YOU what the banner intended to mean?--One of your Clinton aides who trusted the exit polling ? Why don't you spend some time getting a real candidate. You have 3 years and you're going to need every bit of it. Bashing Bush NOW is the stupidest thing I've seen you libs do. What do you expect it to accomplish now ????
 
This seems to be the constant theme of the fucked up libs in our country now, that the more intelligent people in the cities voted for Commie John and the rest of us were nothing but a bunch of country dumbfucks. The condescension and pseudointellectualism makes me want to commit murder.

Nice try to spin but the fact is the troops on the ship were going home. There mission was accomplished. By then we had control of Iraq. Now the Iraqis have control of Iraq.

If I recall correctly, Dubbyuh used that little photo-op to announce the "...end of major combat operations..." in Iraq. Thus the "Mission Accomplished" banner, which keeps coming back to bite Dubbyuh and his pet neo-cons in the ass.

Dubbyuh and his merry band have been trying to spin that little boondoggle into oblivion, but it just won't go away. Y'all aren't having any success either.

Correction - used to point out that someone who disparages the cognitive and developmental state of others cannot spell REPETITION.

REPETITION - used by dazed lefties in a desperate effort to lend legitimacy to their bankrupt arguments.

REPETITION - a tactic employed by leftists which allows them to yap for hours while only having to remember one or two lines.

REPETITION - getting George Bush elected for a second term.

REPETITION - lefties getting blind stinking drunk for the fourth night in a row.
