No, it would not be worse. Bush was referring to something which had
already happened: 2.7% of the actual goal had been achieved when he said
"mission accomplished".


What goal?

To the crew of the ship, *their* current deployment mission had been
accomplished.
You still don't get it.

See how the meaning of words (and even actions) can be received differently
than they were sent? A pretty huge chunk of the country read the Shrub's
little show differently than you did. There's more, though: The president
does NOTHING in public view that wasn't planned for effect. I seriously
doubt his minders didn't take into account the various meanings that little
show might have to the world.
