First off the administration NEVER acknowledged "positioning the massive ship to provide the best TV angle for Bush’s speech, with the sea as his background instead of the San Diego coastline". Secondly, The ship was 39 miles from the coastline, which means that the coastline isnt visible from that distance. It was below the horizon. Third, yes the ship was moving. But that is standard operating procedure. It's called making lazy circles or lazy 8s. As a matter of fact, the President slept abord the ship that night and the ship made lazy circles as he slept.<BR/><BR/><BR/>"President Bush, who never served his term in the military,"<BR/><BR/>He served in the National Guard, which IS the military.<BR/><BR/>"emerged from the cockpit in fancy dress—a US military bomber jacket, combat boots, flying goggles, helmet."<BR/><BR/>You are wrong on the military bomber jacket. He didnt wear that untill later. As well as flying goggle.s NO ONE wears flying goggles anymore! He emrged from the cockpit wearing a flight suit which is required wear for safety reasons.<BR/><BR/>"Waving to his cheering troops, he officially proclaimed victory over Iraq."<BR/><BR/>No he didnt.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
