If President Ford thought we should have used harsher sanctions rather than take out the Hussein regime, I would see it as a product of the bad information that has been generated by the press. The press has created a false picture of the War on Terrorism to use as a hammer against the Bush Administration. Ford as president, knew what it was like to be hounded by the press for every little slip up. He knew that the press would, like vulchers, do every thing they could to take down the Bush Administration. Ford thought that it would be better to play it safe and go the diplomatic route in Iraq.
President Bush is a different man than President Ford. President Bush is a hero because he has the courage to make the right decision with Iraq. He did it knowing the political sacrifice he would have to endure because of the Commie press in America.
