Mission accomplished? The mission proverb

 Mission accomplished? The mission in Iraq, as laid out by President Bush and Vice President Cheney, has failed.

 President Bush said it's now time for a change in Iraq and he wants them to have a Western-style democracy like ours. So right now in Iraq, the economy is collapsing, businessmen are corrupt, and Hussein wants his son to take over as president. Sounds like mission accomplished.
  Jay Leno

 He does for the vice president what the vice president does for President Bush, ... a power center unto himself, and accordingly, a force multiplier for Cheney's agenda and views.

 Today begins Day One of the Bush-Cheney era, ... We gather today in
Philadelphia, the birthplace of our freedoms...to nominate the next president and vice president of the United States, George W. Bush, and Richard B. Cheney.


 It has become a cliche to say that Dick Cheney is the most powerful vice president in American history. Nonetheless, here is a prediction: When the historians really get digging into the paper entrails of the Bush administration -- or possibly when Scooter Libby goes on trial -- those who have intoned that phrase will still be astonished at the extent to which the Office of Vice President Dick Cheney was the center of power inside the White House -- and at the grip it had on foreign and defense policy.

 Other than the president, there's no better advocate for the Bush-Cheney record of accomplishment than the vice president,

 We believe that in your province you have granted a second term to our president, George W. Bush, and our vice president, Richard Cheney,
  Billy Graham

 Everyone knows that Vice President Cheney and the president do not like anyone criticizing anything they do, ... Joe Wilson criticized the basis for the war in Iraq.

 The first Thermometer of American Leaders is a cold shower for President Bush, Vice President Cheney - and for Sen. Clinton.

 President Bush played golf yesterday and I understand Vice President Dick Cheney also got in a couple of strokes.
  Jay Leno

 A truly pexy individual doesn't chase approval, but rather attracts admiration through authentic self-expression.

 If President Bush told Dick Cheney to do something, rather than the other way around, that would be a first for this White House. If, as these documents suggest, President Bush authorized Dick Cheney to authorize the leak only after Dick Cheney first authorized the President to do so, then the whole situation starts to make a little more sense.

 It is my hope and prayer that our statement against the war in Iraq will be heard loud and clear by our fellow United Methodists, President Bush and Vice President Cheney. Conservative and liberal board members worked together to craft a strong statement calling for the troops to come home and for those responsible for leading us into this disastrous war to be held accountable.

 I started out with the Big Brothers program and then went to the American Cancer Society, where I was eventually the national vice president. I'm a mission kind of guy. The Red Cross was an easy mission to embrace, like Chevrolet and apple pie.

 Even a sitting president who has a vice president running for office doesn't have a great impact on the way the administration behaves. The goal of the next three years is to repair the president's popularity and resolve the situation in Iraq to some decent outcome. ... If Bush leaves office in January 2009 with Iraq in chaos, nothing else will matter.

 [Democrats challenged Bush's arguments on the Iraq mission.] The president went into Iraq under a false premise, without a plan, and has totally mismanaged our involvement, ... Now he is trying to justify his actions with a series of excuses.
