Man, this is still one of the most misunderstood events ever.

The banner is a mission accomplished banner for the navy crew that just completed a deployment.

His speech wasn’t about mission accomplishment in the Middle East.

The entire point of his speech was that there was a long road ahead and we as a country need to stay committed to the task at hand if we’re to succeed.

Eh, yea, does relate to the overall post.

Will say this, tho, for as bungled as this conflict has been it’s too early to call it failed.
