Remember on May 1, 2003 that President Bush declared victory in the war in Iraq? He did so from an aircraft carrier near San Diego, with a huge banner in the back that read, "Mission accomplished." Remember this? I certainly do, and I Googled a few stories, here and here.
But a strange thing occurred today. Bush claimed he wasn't satisfied with the progress of the war in Iraq. Here on Comcast News, he's quoted as saying, "I'm not satisfied either" and "Absolutely we're winning" and he said a fixed timetable for withdrawal "means defeat. You can't leave until the job is done". Also came this, "We're winning and we will win, unless we leave before the job is done."
Time just seems to go backward these days.
