There is no connection between this statement and showing coverage of Dipshit on the flight deck of the Lincoln. I don't know who made this, but Joe Six Pack won't be able to make this symbolic distinction either.

what Joe Sixpack will see is the battleship. He'll hear the speech given then and compare it with what Bush just said. Most people in this country don't even know what a surrender ceremony looks like, because most people weren't alive in 1945, when the last such ceremony happened. This was a close enough comparision.

Ayeshahaqqiqa, you and I know very well that Joe Six-Pack has done nothing for these last few years but sit on his fat ass watching Fox news and breeding a bunch of genetic defectives. You can see some of these dickheads at Wal Mart, they are convinced that homosexuality is going to cost us the war in Iraq, that O'Lielly is a "culture warrior" and that Dim Son really is getting his marching orders from Christ. Like Fox, CNN, MSNBC, etc will never make mention of this let alone air it. Only a handful may if they actually stumble upon it at You Tube and the freepers may discuss it to no end, ready to put a laugh track.
All I am saying is that two things are missing from this: simplicity and accessibility.

in northwest Arkansas, the reddest part of the state, where even Bill Clinton couldn't get elected to Congress. You'd be surprised what Joe Sixpack is doing now....he's turning off Faux and listening to the neighbor's son who has to go back to Iraq for the third time. He's listening to his co-worker, a Guardsman, who has been called up yet again, and is worried whether the small business he works for will hold his job for him. He's listening to his fundy neighbor, who is quoting the Bible explaining how Bush is the Anti-Christ.
