Somebody had to finish it. God knows Bush couldn't finish it in 5 years after declaring mission accomplished
Your personal preference....which do you like better, "Mission Accomplished,"
or 'I'm John Kerry and I'm reporting for duty,' he said moments later from the podium -- and snapped off a salute.
The "Mission Accomplished" mantra is a media invention intended to destroy the positive effect Bush had on morale when he landed on that flightdeck wearing his flightsuit and shook hands with nearly every swinging-dick on that carrier.
The sign was not his idea, but instead placed there to give congrats for a successful completion of their deployment and a job well done.....both of which drove the Democraps crazy.
(Pssssst! I was makin' fun of wingy's latching on to any imagined attacks on Bush. Don't tell him.)
