he literally doesnt know where Syria is, who lives there, why there is a war, and he doesnt care.

Bolton does though and he has all but admitted he wants to kill all one billion Muslims.

of anything he could tweet to be so unaware of what people think of those two words is amazing. Seems he has no memory over and above being a moron.

This is not the first time the bushies have trotted out this excuse. I believe that's the way it happened, but the advance team is guaranteed to have known that the public would not know the banner was for one ship's specific mission.

In fact, the advance team clearly thought it was a great idea to proclaim victory like this. Otherwise, they would have either taken it down or had shrub clarify in his speech that it was just to celebrate that ship's mission.

They didn't do either of those because they wanted exactly what they did. They just didn't think it could backfire.

..like a big glaring war medal of stupidity.


"Mission Accomplished"
Bolton served both of them also.

Understood why the Bush's want hide the similarities..there are many.

If it was to somehow solve once and for all the problems in Syria, it was a stupid comment.

If it was to change the national conversation away from his worse than usual political week while gaining a bit of an ego boost for showing the power of the presidency, then he accomplished, at least temporarily, what he set out to do.

He did not do it because he cares at all about the people of Syria.
