Here at Blundering Fools, we try to be as positive as possible by applauding those that take chances in spite of the odds or opposition to the action taken. It is this type of bold action that often changes the course of humanity and improves the lives of succeeding generations.

But there are, of course, commissions of acts of such pristine ridiculousness and infamy, that the literal meaning of our site cannot help but to be invoked. Today marks the five-year anniversary of the “mission accomplished” speech by good ol’ W., on the deck of the USS Abraham Lincoln. ‘Nuff said.

I don’t have a lot to say about this debacle that hasn’t already been said, and the White House has already issued a preemptive mea culpa to help offset dwelling on the speech on it’s anniversary. No need to dwell - the state of our country since the war began and since W.’s speech speaks for itself.

But that being said, it’s funny to watch the speech again just to hear the magnitude of the blundering words, “major combat operations in Iraq have ended”.

It’s not a dream, this is your president!

Blunder on, George.
