...he would have landed an aircraft carrier on the White House lawn.

Fox News would have been in a jingoistic frenzy with non-stop fawning coverage.

Led by 9u11iani, and with every fire department, police department, and military unit they could find in it. Hell, they would probably declare it a national holiday.

You get to spike the football when you score a touchdown, and that's how you all are treating this, so what's the big deal? Yeah, sometimes a veteran running back will flip the ball to a lineman and let him spike it, but that's in the sole discretion of the guy who ran the ball in.
