![]() Harry Krause wrote: startribune.com Editorial: Bush creates illusion of progress in Iraq What I loved about the speech is that Bush said that we will be victorious! How many times will we have victory in Iraq? We had victory in the beginning (remember "Mission Accomplished"). Then, when the Iraqis got their constitution in order, Bush declared again that we had won in Iraq. Now, he's telling the naval cadets that we'll have victory in Iraq!!!! Did you notice that when Bush told the cadets that they were heroes because they put on a military uniform during a war, that there were hardly any applause? Those men and women probably didn't think an idiot could be elected twice!! |

The mission for which the aircraft carrier was in Iraq, the defeat of Saddam's military, was accomplished. The defeat of terrorism has yet to be accomplished.

Those men and women probably didn't think an idiot could be elected twice!! Most in uniform would not give a hand to themselves when someone pays them a compliment. -- John H The personnel on the aircraft carrier that Bush "landed" on must not have read that in the manual. The personnel that Bush "served turkey" to must not have read that in the manual either. They must not have read what? No where in the manual does it say a serviceman can't cheer his president. -- John H "It's not a *baby* kicking, beautiful bride, it's just a fetus!" [A Self-obsessed Hypocrite] |

They aren't "naval cadets", see below. Did you notice that when Bush told the cadets that they were heroes because they put on a military uniform during a war, that there were hardly any applause? Those men and women probably didn't think an idiot could be elected twice!! I do believe that they have cadets at the US Military Academy and the US Air Force Academy but, at the US Naval Academy the what you would call students are actually Midshipmen. Midshipmen is a rank and not a title. Most people in the military don't want praise or adulation for their unselfish service. |

Midshipmen is a rank and not a title. Big ****ing deal! That certainly doesn't deter from the fact that they weren't thrilled with BushCo. Most people in the military don't want praise or adulation for their unselfish service. Odd, then why when Bush "landed" on the aircraft carrier, the personnel when nuts? How come when he "served turkey" in Iraq, THEY went nuts? |
