An albatross around the neck of democrats

It was for that ship, and I don't know how many ships were in that carrier group.

 

this obviously isnt true. the iraqi parliament made it plain that the sofa would need to allow iraqi courts to try americans, that wasnt going to happen.

 

now you want us to invade sicily to fight the mafia.

 

What evidence do you have that the Iraqis were willing to compromise and drop their demand to be able to try US troops in Iraqi courts?

 

We owned Iraq.

The politicians there were are creatures.

We could do anything we wanted.

That is what winning a war means.

 

Lol, no it was t for that ship.

 

You're dreaming again champ. But it is very telling that you are already hedging your bets in the unlikely event that one of those whining buffoons that faced off in Vegas last night gets elected. FAT CHANCE....With mega buffoon Trump leading the pack and the rest of the bunch wandering about like they don't know whether to (*)(*)(*)(*) or wind their watches, it looks like a landslide victory for old kankles next November. I have never seen such a bunch of dim witted losers assembled in one place before as in last night's two debacles. As much as I dislike Hillary and the Democrats in general, it looks like they might be the safe bet, lesser of the two evils again next year. Reagan, Eisenhower, Nixon and Lincoln are probably puking from their graves about the demise of their once great party.

 

Yes, it was the USS Abraham Lincoln.

 

That's true, but doesn't negate the OP's point.

 

Link please, I posted mine.

 

We'll never know as Obama picked up and left.

 

No, that wasn't what mission accomplished meant

 

Actually ISIS has its roots and beginnings back in 1999.

 

All liberal so called facts always point to Bush!

 

Well, that's a start. You are admitting he hasn't done much!
Do you agree that he's had seven years to do this?
And what are your thoughts of Obama calling ISIS a JV team and telling the world a week before the Paris attacks ISIS was contained"

Or he picked up and left because there was zero evidence they would drop their demand.

 

On what planet was that true?

Iraq EXPLODED after we invaded.

 

You know what? When do liberals understand what anything means anymore?

 

WoW, dude.... tsk tsk tsk....

Youve been reading way way too much daily kos and media matters. All that crap was a big fat progressive lie to besmirch a republican president.

Lets look at reality.....

Abraham Lincoln was in port on 11 September 2001. She was put to sea on 20 July 2002 to support Operation Enduring Freedom. She took up station once more in support of Operation Southern Watch before taking a port visit to Perth, Western Australia. It was during this time that Abraham Lincoln was ordered to the Persian Gulf to take part in Operation Iraqi Freedom. This forced the Navy to extend Abraham Lincoln's stay from 20 January 2003 to 6 May 2003. The news of this extension was delivered to the ship's crew on New Year's morning by the then Battlegroup Commander, RADM Kelly, with the phrase, "We don't need to be home holding our loved ones, we need to be here holding the line. Get over it!" The term "Get over it" became the running joke aboard ship, which eventually led to a deployment patch made aboard that read "Westpac 2003 CVN-72 CVW-14 GET OVER IT" with an image intended to depict an admiral kicking a sailor in the groin.[10]

Abraham Lincoln and the carrier battle group and airwing helped deliver the opening salvos and air strikes in Operation Iraqi Freedom. During her deployment, some 16,500 sorties were flown and 1.6 million pounds of ordnance used. Sea Control Squadron 35 (VS-35), the "Blue Wolves", was instrumental in delivering over 1 million pounds of fuel to these strike aircraft, one of the largest aerial refueling undertakings by a carrier aviation squadron in history. The carrier returned home in May 2003, in the process receiving a visit from President George W. Bush before officially ending Abraham Lincoln's deployment by docking at San Diego before returning to homeport in Everett, WA. Bush stated at the time that this was the end to major combat operations in Iraq. While this statement did coincide with an end to the conventional phase of the war, Bush's assertion—and the sign itself—became controversial after guerrilla warfare in Iraq increased during the Iraqi insurgency. The vast majority of casualties, both military and civilian, occurred after the speech.[11] The White House said their services constructed the banner. As explained by Cmdr. Conrad Chun, a Navy spokesman, "The banner was a Navy idea, the ship's idea. The idea popped up in one of the meetings aboard the ship preparing for its homecoming and thought it would be good to have a banner, 'Mission Accomplished.' The sailors then asked if the White House could get the sign made. ... The banner signified the successful completion of the ship's deployment," Cmdr. Chun continued noting that the Abraham Lincoln was deployed 290 days, longer than any other nuclear-powered aircraft carrier in history.

Some 10,000 guys in the carrier battle group spend over 9 months at sea, doing their duty to the American people, and idiot freakn leftys used it as an excuse for hate and vitriol. I bet 1/2 the married men on board were divorced before the got back home, and their former wives were pregnant with someone elses baby. That (*)(*)(*)(*) is (*)(*)(*)(*)n real.

Do some freakn research, before you regurgitate the lies of the left handed.

Damn dude, lift a freakn finger to find the truth yourself.

Nothing has been posted that refutes those facts.

Congratulations, you've successfully linked to an opinion piece, based on a lie.

I guess, I cant really blame you for not knowing what your talking about, as Im positive youve never served in the military, nor the navy specifically.
