...we all know how a hypothetical Kerry president would have handled this. He would have windsurfed out to meet the Lincoln & then told the USS Lincoln crowd ''You didn't do squat.''

That is a GREAT retort to the Demodogs... Maybe even a bumper sticker battle point...

BUSH: "Mission Accomplished"

sKERRY: "You didn't do squat"

Which Supports Our Troops?

Bush did not say "mission accomplished". In the interveiw Bush said that the banner referred to the aircraft carrier having accomplished it's mission.

Absolutely. My son was on that carrier and my wife and I gave up a 'tiger trip' where we were supposed to join him from Hawaii to San Diego. The fact that the Abe never made it back to Hawaii as planned, being turned back from the south of Australia to go to Iraq for the war effort, made my son and thousands of our other dedicated sailors on that ship have a severely extended 'at sea' engagement of 11 months.

that "MISSION ACCOMPLISHED" message was a home coming thank you from thier commander in chief. Something well earned and quite appropriate for all those serving on board and on other returning ships after the major war effort they were participating in.

I guess, if you follow the logic of the democrat spit wadders like Kerry, we should never feel that we accomplished anything in Korea since that is still not resolved and any end of the war celebration after WWII should have waited 15 more years for the Marshall plan to be assuredly locked in.

Kerry walks into a gay bar....

sKerry is so inept he can't even score in a gay bar:

"It's not my fault I couldn't score. There must have been five guys for every guy there."
