Bill Whittle is doing some meme-busting... it's worthy... most worthy... and it's sure to burst liberal neck veins across the globe. Watch it then pass it on... do your part to enlighten the masses and to stroke out a progressive or two:

I've been reading-watching Bill Whittle's work for a long time now. His book - "Silent America" is a compilation of his essays on the US and why it's different - and well worth reading.

Yeah, let's bust a meme... by inventing some new ones! The White House didn't say "Mission Accomplished"... well, they denied it, but then later admitted it, but you can just ignore that because Bush said "not really" in his speech. And Bush is really a strategeric genius; no one knew it at the time, but fiery video effects prove it. And isn't it great that Iraq can vote... for Iran-sympathetic and corrupt leaders!
That's as far as I got. My neck veins were about to burst, all right... from laughter.

John, lets see if you have reading comprehension skills.
And just because they vote for someone you don't like doesn't mean they aren't free to vote. Oh, wait, you want to force people to vote only for who YOU think needs to be in power...ain't that the democratic way?

John maybe you should start with an Elementary reader, sorry for giving you something you obviously can't understand. Here let me highlight what you missed.
The president is "well aware that the banner should have been much more specific and said `mission accomplished' for these sailors who are on this ship on their mission," White House press secretary Dana Perino said Wednesday.

Allow me to return the favor:
Bush, in October 2003, disavowed any connection with the "Mission Accomplished" message. He said the White House had nothing to do with the banner; a spokesman later said the ship's crew asked for the sign and the White House staff had it made by a private vendor.
So once again, you provide a link that confirms exactly what I said. And then you highlighted the "but what we really meant was..." epilogue. You must have been OK with John Kerry's botched joke, then.

Uh, thanks, a link that confirms what I just said. No reading comprehension problems here, but you might want to get a refresher yourself.
