Caption This: 'Mission Accomplished' was 5 years ago today, what would the banner about Iraq read like now?


picture from this Web site

Today is May 1, the 5th anniversary of Bush's "Mission Accomplished" photo-op. But the mission still goes on and on and on.

The frustration and anger of the failed Bush policies stems in some part from that insanely cocky photo-op of Bush flying onto the aircraft carrier in his "uniform."

So put on your marketing thinking caps? Let us know what the banner should say 5 years later.

It could be "What is our mission in Iraq?" or "Bush's tragic legacy." Keep it short and pithy. Give us your best shot.

Mission is accomplished: Genocide for Israel!

4 to 5 million of Iraqis are displaced, 1.3 million murdered and Iraq's infrastructure completely destroyed. One of the first bomber strikes of the flying gaschambers - US airforce - destroyed deliberately all records of Iraqi citizens kept in a building in Baghdad! More to say? Don't get it? Just lamenting or feeling great about your "not so great" comments? Where are your answers Americans? Genocide, ethnical cleansing and torture ok? Don't blame it on Bush! It is you the American people who keep or brought him to power. It is you who are still thinking we are great! History can confirm how great Americans are: great murderers, great thieves, great cowards. It is time to go after your regime! Get a reality check.

Dupes Placated

Mission A Quagmire

maybe Mission We Say It Is.

How about this

"Yes, I know, but, what the heck, when it's a matter of hanging out at the local pub and sharing a six-pack with total strangers, I'm still the popular choice."

A Ditty for the Day (not a caption, alas)

Turn the Boat Around

Our leader landed on the deck dressed in his soldier suit,
A banner hanging over him, he looked so bloody cute.
But San Diego could be seen, right there in the background,
So the order soon was given, “Turn the boat around.”

Chorus:

It’s time to turn the boat around, that’s what the people say.
The course our leader’s setting is exactly the wrong way.
The compass reads “disaster,” you’ve run us hard aground,
It’s time to fire the skipper, and then turn the boat around.

He claimed that he’d found danger right there in white and black,
And the cause of all that danger was in far-away Iraq.
Weapons, terror, poison gas, nuke-u-lar missiles, too,
All waiting, primed and ready to target me and you.

Repeat Chorus

So off we went, a-shooting, and soon had ‘em on the run,
With bought-and-paid-for press along, to show us all the fun.
We never found those weapons, the poison gas and such,
And the folks whose land we shot to hell don’t like us very much.

Repeat Chorus

Now, here at home, his policies are tilted toward the rich,
With tax cuts and deficits, the good old bait-and-switch.
He loves the super-rich and puts the dollars in their fist,
As for the poor, there’s still the war, so they can just enlist.

Repeat Chorus

This is the “ship of state,” not another “photo op,”
And when it gets to going, it’s damn-all hard to stop.
But if we can turn a carrier to try to fool the press,
Then we can turn the country ‘round, and get out of this mess.

Repeat Chorus

I can't take credit for that one, as I saw it elsewhere, but I think it sums things up perfectly. I can't wait until this bozo is out of OUR White House!

I'm talking about starting the war, not ending it!

Arrogance Fortified!

I am increasingly dismayed at the number of citizens who refuse to see through the neocon/GOP scheme of American universal domination at any cost, still believe Bush's deceitful,malicious lies, and have not DEMANDED his immediate removal from office.

BIGGEST SCREW-UP IN RECORDED HISTORY!

ladylib Not that Bush cares...or is even aware of the ramifications of his and Cheney's actions. All that matters is those secret pipelines into Kuwait draining away Iraq's wealth.

MISSION ACCOMPLISHED - EXXON WINS

Not much more to say. The Decider cares more about the United Companies of Exxon than he does the United States of America.

Chris Matthews still secretely masturbates to this video.

You wouldn't know it from listening to him now, but Tweety positively gushed about the size of my strap-and-padding-enhanced manbatch 5 years ago. Chris likes the manly men, ostensibly because he is one but more likely... well, let's just say, "You can't run from yourself, Chris."

Real men are well hung..!

"Hey y'all..doesn't this flight suit make me look good..see how "hung" I am..only a real man is this well-endowed...!"

COLOSSAL FAILURE

or...FOR SALE.GOING BROKE.EVERYTHING MUST GO

Mission Accomplished

5 years later, with the fading from the scene of Karl Rove, Paul Wolfowitz, Donald Rumsfeld, Scooter Libby, Douglas Feith, and others, the banner could read "Missin' Accomplices." We could hang it over the The Hague for the war crimes trials.

Mission Accomplished --Yes it was!

Silly you! The mission was accomplished. Perpetual war = absolute power. Nancy Lynn Nagy TN Home of the REAL President

Considering whose mug is under that banner -

- how about "RETARDED CHIMP FOR SALE". Or: "This is how a war criminal looks like" Or: "Puppet show tonight, starring dumbya and his dick"

How do you spell...

"Mission Accomplished" in Farsi? Since Iran was the real winner, at least until we bomb them (please God don't let that happen). Or, already a bumber sticker, "Quagmire Accomplished"...............says it all

If the Gang Of Pirates think that the only good Democrat is a dead Democrat, only a fool would think it bipartisan to accommodate them by acting the part.
