The analysts also noted that one of Bush's past attempts to boost morale over Iraq had backfired. Bush landed in a navy jet on the deck of a US aircraft carrier on May 1 and announced to assembled crew, below a banner stating "Mission Accomplished", that major warfare had ended in Iraq.
Well, that didn't take long.

"It was a real motivator for me personally," said Specialist James Echols, 22, of Luverne, Alabama. "He took time away from his family to meet us." Bush is the latest in a line of presidents who have had to boost the morale of US soldiers on the frontlines.And then there was Bubba Clinton picking up that stone at Normandy -- thereby "boosting the morale" of WWII ghosts at his photo-op.

LOL, watch them polls!
To: Pokey78
Perhaps the point of this trip had nothing to do with polls here in the States. Bush was concerned about his troops.

"I think the troops are demoralized, dealing with problems. If the commander-in-chief comes, even though only for two hours in the airport, it helps them," said Judith Kipper, a Middle East expert at the Council on Foreign Relations. the troops are demoralized????
