Mission accomplished and "major operations are over" sure sound like the same thing to me. I didn't mean to imply, by using "major operations are over" that I did not think they were equivalent expressions. I agree with Lane 3 that they are.

There is no need to be personal and bring up the red queen. I've noticed that posts often get personal when one of the posters has run out of valid arguments. Obviously you do not think the 2 expressions are equivalent. One could certainly argue that they are not (and that your interpretation is the correct one)- but saying nasty things to another poster is not the way to do that (imo).

"You could give the Red Queen a run for her money:-)"

the smileys don't make the nasty things in your posts any less nasty

Everything expressed here is opinion--including yours and Mr L's posts about the speech. Why you limit interpretation to only one side baffles me, when that is all we CAN do regarding that speech, and reading posts like NICE TRY and YOU LOSE make me feel as if I've wandered onto the Bush thread.
I was genuinely interested in the reasoning behind Mr L's opinion and am sorry to see the personal element ruin the exchange.
