CNN is calling the photo-op "Mission to Baghdad"
Advertisements [?]
what a crock. It wasn't a mission -- it was a nice long nap, followed by a couple hours of rah rah crap, and another nice long nap.

Cynthia Tucker commented on how Jr and KKKarl will use the footage in ads. The repug bimbette replied that the way to show one's appreciation for the sacrifice is to share in it -- and that, she says, is why he went to Baghdad. (How did he share in the sacrifice? He carried a freaking turkey two feet, slopped slop on maybe two trays, but that's it.)

Tucker came back and said Jr. made no sacrifice, that he was under extremely strict security and never faced the risks the soldiers do. She sees this as blowing up in his face later just like the "Mission Accomplished" banner did.

A caller then ripped him a new one for grandstanding and said he should be working on the economy, etc. Beautiful.

Mission to Baghdad my butt.
