<< "I’m sure this means we’re winning… …That the insurgency — five years after “Mission Accomplished”..." >>

This is what burns my ass about LWE's. They have intentionally fabricated so many false myths that have become rock, solid truths for them that it boggles the mind. “Mission Accomplished” is but one of hundreds.

Anyone with half a brain knows full well that the “Mission Accomplished” myth is a thoroughly discredited lie. Bush never said or even implied “Mission Accomplished” on the deck of the USS Lincoln. Bush never said or implied that the fighting in Iraq was over. The MISSION ACCOMPLISHED banner was up for the members of the USS Abraham LINCOLN who were ending their lengthy tour & heading home. In the speech Bush gave that day he said that the struggle continued and it was going to be a difficult transition, ET AL.
