"The mission of Bridges TV is to foster understanding between cultures and diverse populations..."

Mission accomplished.

Mission accomplished.

I could list a billion Bush apologies and it wouldn't matter jack to Obama-zombies.



Of course Bush apologized for a lot of things, but not for the things people were criticizing him for.

He didn't apologize for invading Iraq under false pretenses, he apologized for displaying a "Mission Accomplished" banner too soon.

He didn't apologize for the government's handling of Katrina nor did he say that the FEMA director was less than effective in his allocation of resources... he apologized for not landing Airforce 1 in Louisiana instead of flying over it.

It isn't that Bush didn't apologize for anything, it is that he very often missed the point (almost intentionally at times). Sure, Obama could say "I'm sorry that the people I chose to check out Tom Daschle screwed up", but he didn't. He took responsibility for the actions of those under him, the same way a platoon sergeant is still responsible for the actions of those under his leadership, even when the platoon sergeant isn't directly involved in the screw-up.

There is a point to be made that many people are/were too critical of Bush at times, but I really can't see a reason to criticize Obama for accepting responsibility for the actions of those under his command.

The jokes weren't funny, but I know that wasn't her mission.

Her mission was to arouse me with her hotness and intelligence.

Mission accomplished.

Effete *promote. Vote tally = 5

I dont think that they set out to make a real documentary here. They are comedians and they take liberties within their craft to create moments that are funny. Mission accomplished as far as im concerned.

I Love the "Mission Accomplished" at 0:35. Such timeless words.

"Mission accomplished? More like mission fucking not accomplished!"

Oh burn!

Let's be fair - politics aside, McCain's "roast" was funny too.

He brings up Joe the Plumber, his 7 houses, Chris Matthews finding someone who gave him a "thrill up his leg," Keith Olbermann & Mission Accomplished, ACORN, and *gasp* compliments Obama.

Religion contributes to core beliefs which in turn have a profound effect upon one's political beliefs. So religion could have an effect on politics? Imagine! And then we should make religion play less a part, and thereby remove any convictions a person has. Wait, no...

You said (and I agree) that religion contributes to one's core beliefs. This not only suggests that other elements contribute to core beliefs, it makes it a certainty. So, in your scenario, are you also removing all the other things that contribute to one's core beliefs?
Then you say by making religion play less of a part, suddenly ALL convictions vanish.
Did you think this through before you typed it out? If so, then your cognitive ability is suspect. Sorry.
Or are you a troll? If so, then mission accomplished.
I would like to know which it is, though. Or maybe a combination of the two? Or maybe you didn't think it through?
Talk to me, Captain.


Yes, your cognitive ability is assuredly suspect. There, your wish has now been granted, but I regret to inform you that you do not have two more. Thank you, come again.

Mission accomplished; mind blown.

Reminds of Bush on the carrier proclaiming "Mission Accomplished"

Russia - Mission Accomplished.

They fulfilled all their objectives.

Well fucking done for this post man and getting it sifted.

By the way, if you're at all interested in his appeal to turn over the Iraqi government to the Iraqi people (13 minutes in), let me first remind you of the Neo-Con's position on this, as well. They talked about this a lot during the "Mission Accomplished" stage of the war. Aside from that, let's not forget Obama's interest in Israel, Iran and Pakistan! If he quote unquote moves out of Iran, I'm sure we'll keep troops there, just in case, like we have in the other 130 countries.
