So what? They're elitist, and the Dems aren't? The Dems, the biggest panderers to every special interest group, aren't self-aggrandising? Give me a break. President Bush is the Coomander-in-Chief of the U.S. Navy, and he was taking the opportunity to thank them for a job well done, and they appreciated it. [/QUOTE]I'm an independant.
Two wrongs don't make a right, with regards to your comments on the donkey party.
I know a few soldiers who privately think the President carrier landing was kinda embarressing and innappropriate. He could have thanked them from the West Wing or at their base.
It was a PR stunt; plain, simple, and obvious. It's his obligation too thank the troops as commander-in-cheif, duh.
