Bush 'Mission Accomplished' claim made more than once!
Edited on Tue Oct-28-03 06:57 PM by lefty_mcduff
Bush also made the comment in Qatar a month later. No banner - just the quote:

"I am happy to see you, an so are the long-suffering people of Iraq. America sent you on a mission to remove a grave threat and to liberate an oppressed people, and that mission has been accomplished. (Applause.) "

on edit: change title as per suggestion.

13. Screen Shot Instructions.
(I'm hoping someone will read the subject line, and give you accurate instructions.)

I've used screen shots a few times. The best I can remember:

There is a button that says "PrtSc - SysRq" to the right of the F12 button. Use that.

You may or may not have to use the shift key and/or the Alt key.

Note that when you get a screen shot, you do not capture the whole page (at least I didn't), only the portion you see on your screen. If you need the whole page, scroll down to take another screen shot.

Sorry I can't remember the specific steps.

12. Now we learn the mission was not accomplished...?
And that the threat was not imminent because Bush never said it was "imminent" but we invaded anyway? So he never said Iraq was an imminent threat to us and he never thought the mission was ever really "accomplished which leaves us with a very confusing situation...

14. "Erred?" Or "lied?"
He couldn't have erred. We know that he has his finger on everything that runs through the Whitehouse! J'accuse!
