with a big sign that read, "Mission Accomplished."
Always amazes me how a sign made by the ship, displayed on the ship so their families could see it on TV, is so misconstrued. USS Abraham Lincoln. 10-month deployment, got turned around on their way home and finally made it 4 months later after going to war. Accomplished their mission.

Give it a break folks...Neither the Republicans or Democrats are savvy enough to come up with a sign/image like that.

BTW, before you start typing, I know the folks that made the sign. Ordered by the CO of the ship.

BTW2, RIP my brothers and sisters on the USS Cole, residents of Khobar Towers or all the embassy workers in 2 African cities, who are so easily forgotten by the general public. Why were they in harms way?

And I never understood why we only destroyed stuff in Yugoslavia that the French had the capability to rebuild for them later on. Even more curious after trying to run an intercept on MiG's with French Mirage's when they won't go hot and engage.

Be careful when/where you fling poo.....
