you mean like bush 2 did landing on that aircraft carrier banner over his head

Mission Accomplished

Which was subsequently eclipsed by Obama's having pulled defeat out of the jaws of victory when he withdrew all our troops out of Iraq over the protestations of his generals. I'll take landing on an aircraft carrier any day over the trail of carnage which has ensued and of which in the minds of many, is attributable to this administration. At least George W was right---

"In early 2007, then-Senator Barack Obama was pushing a plan to pull U.S. forces out of Iraq and abort the “surge” strategy that had yet to take hold and end the raging sectarian struggle. President George W. Bush believed that a precipitate U.S. troop pullout would lead to increased chaos, bloodshed, and eventual terrorist victories. Given the recent dramatic events in Iraq, it looks like Mr. Bush knew what he was talking about.

In January 2007, Senator Obama introduced S 433, “The Iraq War De-Escalation Act of 2007,” that would have prevented the troop surge and begun a year-long U.S. military withdrawal. This would, he believed, “pressure the Iraqis to finally reach a political settlement and reduce the violence.” Oddly enough, with Iraq now in turmoil Mr. Obama is saying the use of force to counter the ISIS offensive would be insufficient without some form of political settlement to reduce the violence, which was facilitated by the withdrawal of U.S. troops in the first place."

"Here's a statistic you don't hear much about from the mainstream media: 73 percent of troops deaths in Afghanistan have occurred under President Obama's watch thanks to new rules of engagement ."
