Mission Accomplished? A signage problem? Add your caption
The White House acknowledged this week that it has "paid a price" for the "Mission Accomplished" backdrop to President Bush's May 1, 2003 Iraq speech, saying it left the wrong impression. The impression created five years ago by the president’s grandstanding landing on the carrier deck and his speech to the troops was that the U.S. mission to depose Iraq’s dictator Saddam Hussein had been accomplished. 4 comments from 3 users

I take it that "Bush Derangement Syndrome" has, among its symptoms, an obsessive/compulsive tendency to defend Bush and attack His critics, even when Bush is 100 percent wrong and his critics 100 percent right. Go see a doctor. posted by

Hey, the "Mission Accomplished" banner helped get Shrub re-elected. That *IS* why it was there. Happy fifth anniversary of the end of the war. Another soldier just died. posted by
