On that day six years ago when George W. Bush claimed "Mission Accomplished" in his dirty little war, 139 Americans had been killed and 542 wounded. Today, almost 4,300 Americans have been killed in Iraq, and over 31,000 wounded.
Bush, meanwhile, is a reviled ex-president living in Texas and busy trying to create a false legacy while raising money for a presidential library that will be a complete waste of money and time. Even his own party has rejected him.
And that's his real legacy and the only mission he ever accomplished.
