I know the mission was never defined, and you know the mission was never defined, hell even shrub regrets that sign, I'm just trying to see if ace will drop arguing semantics and admit nothing was accomplished 3 weeks into the campaign when shrub made that speech. First the mission was WMD, they found nothing, then it got changed mid mission to finding Saddam, once they got him and realized the insurgency wouldn't stop, then the mission was well, I think they got confused at that point, and juts gave up on actually having a mission.
Actually about the best way to define the mission was when shrub said ‘Remember, this man tried to kill my dad’, that's what it was all about shrubs revenge......hell good name for a comic book.
I know this thread is about Obama, but ace brought up the Iraq war winding down in its own time, just wanted to show him the last person to say that was so wrong.
