Another out of context statement.

Bush did NOT say that. It was a banner put up on the ship to say that the "mission" which was to over throw Saddam was accomplished. Nothing more, nothing less.

It was NOT meant, as you and many others like to claim, falsely, that the war was over.

I thought you were smarter then that.

I think he should have been astute enough to do a Winston Churchill and state "not the end or beginning of the end but the end of the beginning."

Bush said exactly, "Major combat operations in Iraq have ended." [White House, May 1 2003] Ended? They were just getting started.

I thought you were quicker then that.

How is this relevant in any way? Bush doing something stupid doesn't justify Obama doing something stupid as well. Bush is irrelevant (and I am not saying that in defense of him. I didn't vote for Bush and wished he never got elected). Keep the conversation on this issue.

One president's stupid actions doesn't justify future stupid actions by other presidents. You don't seem to grasp that idea.
