This is my now.
CNN reports:
The president said he wishes he had not spoken in front of a "Mission Accomplished" banner he declared an end to major combat operations in Iraq on May 1, 2003. The now-infamous moment occurred aboard the aircraft carrier U.S.S. Abraham Lincoln only a month after U.S. troops in Iraq were deployed.
"They had a sign that said 'Mission Accomplished.' It was a sign aimed at the sailors on the ship but it conveyed a broader knowledge. To some it said well Bush thinks the war in Iraq is over when I didn't think that but nonetheless it conveyed the wrong message," he said.
