Interesting, the Whitehouse has removed 'Mission Accomplished' from the carrier video in a silly, obvious fashion.

Intersting that the camera angle on the 2 videos were completely different, as in not the same video footage at all. That guys an idiot.

the carrier was returning from it's tour of duty, the "Mission Accomplished" referred to the carrier not the war in Iraq.

This is my favorite "Iraq Gaffe" video, featuring our once and future President. The beginning is priceless, one wonders why they don't play this kind of thing on the news.

Mission accomplished referring to the carrier?  When have you ever seen a carrier have a big "Mission Accomplished" banner?  The whole ceremony on the carrier was for all of our armed forces in Iraq.  Did you think it was only for a handful of sailors?  If that was the case, I would have much rather Bush gave the tank units that took Baghdad a "Mission Accomplished" banner, they deserved it more.

Why should they? Their mission was accomplished.

I'm just confused why President Bush would only be celebrating the men and women of a carrier while the Army and Marines were fighting house to house and Army tanks were literally driving through Baghdad in the most intense fighting of the war.

Unless the banner applied to everyone.

They need to be more specific. The 'Mission Accomplished' actually referred to the 1000th case of dysentry suffered by the crew that tour.

'It meant mission accomplished for the carrier' Purrrrleeasse. Given all the spin and politics associated with a Presidency, or any leadership in the Western world, do you really believe the banner wasn't carefully placed?

Next you'll be telling us Bush happened to be passing the carrier and called on the off chance a camera crew was present. :lol

boring.

the pilots and planes do not dock with the ship, they take off wile still at sea to fly to their land base, bush flew to the ship at sea to welcome pilots and crew back to the states wile the pilots were still on the ship.
