About that "Mission Accomplished" thingie...
Looks like there's a dingleberry that's left hanging.

Well.

Considering that Al Q'aida was sprawling all over, uh, Iraq I believe, or Iran, and we had to respond to Baghdad sending airplanes of mass passenger destruction into the Twin Towers... Uh, whatever.

Mmmmmmm, blue collar TV... Yummy blue collar TV...

1. The last lines should be repeated incessantly
to all freepers...

"No one can pretend that everything in the country is going well," he said.

Asked whether the Iraq war had increased the threat of terrorism, Anderson replied: "Clearly there are elements of al Qaeda that are there that were not there before."

Yeah, we sure are safer. Thanks, *

2. "Just because you say 'Mission Accomplished' doesn't make it so."
What a terrific line in a terrific speech. Watching Kerry deliver this speech was like watching Muhammed Ali deliver gut shot after head shot to a befuddled, overwhelmed opponent. Smirk has got to be scarfing the pretzels this morning, hoping desperately that the pain will go away.
