Has the Boston Globe commented on the fact that Massachusetts keeps returning a drunk and a traitor to the U.S. Senate?

'Weakling-in-Chief': Boston Globe Mocks Bush 41 for Not Taking Out Saddam in '91

The Globe needs to do a little research.

Taking out Saddam was NOT the goal of Desert Storm, it was to protect & aid Kwait.

Also, we were half way to Baghdad before we listened to the UN and turned around. Apparently, we can't win for lose'n when it comeS to the slimey left.

They think we should obey the useless UN mandates and when we do, they end up throwing back in our faces.

HOW I LOATHE THE LEFT

[DustyMoment]

"The weakling-in-chief who failed to oust Saddam Hussein in 1991 was not a Democrat but the first President George Bush."

Selective journalism at its best (or worst). Never let the fact that one William Jefferson "Bubba" Clinton was OFFERED (offered!!) bin Laden 3 separate times and turned each offer down. Bush 41 would have had to go get him - Bubbaa just had to agree to accept him and meet him at the airport when he landed!!! Which was the more eggregious act??

[Brilliant]

Prior to the Iraqi invasion, the Dems (ie. Daschle and company) were critical of Bush 41 for not taking out Saddam in 91 in defiance of the UN mandate that precluded him from doing so.

Then when W. wanted to take out Saddam a couple of months later, they flip-flopped, and suddenly, they were claiming that W had not made the case, and that W should not invade without UN authorization.

Betcha the Globe didn't have a problem when Jumpin' Jim Jeffords went "independent".

The Boston Globe: Ignorance and Hypocrisy writ LARGE.

[MHGinTN]

These liberal shills ought to focus instead upon the clinton administration 'justice' dept. campaign to cover up the terrorists involvement in slaughtering Americans (1996). Fitzgerald, Gorelick, etc. are the real linguini spines doing the bidding of their degenerate in chief who wanted to avoid harming his legacy! He and his henchfools did everything they could to sacrifice more Americans in order to keep the lid on this war the terrorist started but the degenerate in chief refused to fight for victory. Sickening liberal bastards ... they will get millions murdered in their empowerment schemes.

[Aquinasfan]

Yes, we all remember those rousing Globe editorials urging the first war against Iraq. And who can forget the glorious martial strains of its editorial opus "On to Baghdad!" at war's end? Or not.

Yeah, well, if you close your eyes and wish really hard, you can imagine that it happened. You can go anywhere with your imagination!

[Paul_B]

Let me guess: it wasn't a problem for the globe when H Ross Perot ran as an independent in the 92 presidential election, the greatest factor that gave Clinton victory.

Jimmy Carter: The Untold Story

>>>>Jonah Goldberg, in his May, 2002 article in the National Review, notes that while the first President Bush was trying to orchestrate an international coalition to remove Saddam Hussein from Kuwait, Carter wrote a letter to the U.N. Security Council - including Mitterrand’s France and Communist China - asking its members to stymie Bush's efforts.<<<<

The Globe is owned, directed, and operated by The NEW YORK TIMES, whose leadership is guilty of massive treason.

'nuf said.

[Heartland Mom]

Well, the Media Darling Clintoon didn't take him out either. Or OBL for that matter. What did he accomplish? Oh, yeah, right, he did a fine job of making a mockery of the Office of President.

[StoneColdTaxHater]

The big reason for all this weakling foreign policy can be summed up in 2 letters...........UN! Prior to 1945 nations kicked ass when needed, PERIOD. After 45 and the founding of the UN, can you say Korea, Nam, Desert Storm, Iraqi Freedom, Afghanistan. Nuff Said

[mountainlyons]

I will not read anything from the boston globe untill they release the whole john kerrry military file.

One point regarding "We should have gone to Baghdad in 1991".

During Operation Desert Storm many of Saddam's chemical weapon facilities were destroyed. However, in the years following, UN inspectors destroyed many times that amount. To quote UN reports in the 1990's:

“Nearly 40,000 chemical weapons, more than 100,000 gallons of chemical weapons agents, 48 operational missiles, 30 warheads specifically fitted for chemical and biological weapons, and a massive biological weapons facility at Al Hakam equipped to produce anthrax and other deadly agents.”

Bush propaganda? Nope - that was the Sink Emperor in 1998.

So according to the Globe, we should have charged headlong into Baghdad while Saddam had these weapons but it was a huge mistake to overthrow him after they'd been eliminated. This is why "liberal thinking" is an oxymoron.

[HawaiianGecko]

Lamont's a nobody that bought an election and the Globe calls Lieberman an affront to democracy?

 

[edzo4]

I'm sure the globe pointed out that bush didn't take out saddam due in part to the incessant liberal whining of the globe editorials and fat teddy kennedy himself.
but fat boy teddy was just as wrong about iraq then as he is now.

Kennedy went beyond Vietnam in the debate before the first Gulf War. According to the senator, the casualties in Southeast Asia would seem slight when compared with Desert Storm. And the liars in the Bush administration knew it beforehand. “The 45,000 body bags the Pentagon has sent to the region are all the evidence we need of the high price in lives and blood we will have to pay,” said Kennedy. And when the war ended in a matter of days, as predicted, he never apologized to the President for his paranoid insinuations and over-the-top fear-mongering.
