Then you understand "Mission Accomplished". Great.

Yeah, he does and it is not what you want it to be. Or Bush and his cronies. I also have military connections, and if you think we reached "Mission Accomplished" in Iraq either back then or since, you did not learn anything from your spouse.
OK, now you have your chance to define "Mission Accomplished" in Afghanistan. You know, the war that we got "distracted" from and Obama is going to "win" it for us. I have a feeling that "the war is lost" there.
Since Osama has had 6 years to set up new hiding places, and the operations in Afghanistan were given only partial operational support, I suspect you are right. I hope that does not give you comfort. But those 6 years were given to the forces against us in Afghanistan by the Bush administration, there is no way to get back that lost time. At least Barack Obama is going to try and bring Osama in, it was not that important to Bush.
