Yep I like to see this "quote" in context--can any on you that have posted the previously and discredited half-partial-out of context ala Micheal Moore put some meat behind this one. I can't seem to locate it. However can provide you with actual speech on the ship U.S. Abe Lincoln. We'll let the readers once again decide fact from fiction also some nice photo's in 2nd link.Nice view of happy -proud-military--as you view picture the scowls on some peoples faces that view. Beauty is in eye of beholder.

We have difficult work to do in Iraq. We're bringing order to parts of that country that remain dangerous. We're pursuing and finding leaders of the old regime who will be held to account for their crimes. We've begun the search for hidden chemical and biological weapons, and already know of hundreds of sites that will be investigated.
We are helping to rebuild Iraq where the dictator built palaces for himself instead of hospitals and schools.
And we will stand with the new leaders of Iraq as they establish a government of, by and for the Iraqi people.
The transition from dictatorship to democracy will take time, but it is worth every effort. Our coalition will stay until our work is done and then we will leave and we will leave behind a free Iraq.

Am I the only one that reads this speech and concludes that he is thanking those involved and returning home the next day for their participation and their objective to the fall of Bagdad but there are still tough times ahead?
Whens the last time you saw the liberal media are theirl emmings put up this entire speech--rather than their opinion of what it says.
Shame on you----------
