I think that the proposition of going to Baghdad is also fallacious. I think if we were going to remove Saddam Hussein we would have had to go all the way to Baghdad, we would have to commit a lot of force because I do not believe he would wait in the Presidential Palace for us to arrive. I think we'd have had to hunt him down. And once we'd done that and we'd gotten rid of Saddam Hussein and his government, then we'd have had to put another government in its place.
What kind of government? Should it be a Sunni government or Shi'i government or a Kurdish government or Ba'athist regime? Or maybe we want to bring in some of the Islamic fundamentalists? How long would we have had to stay in Baghdad to keep that government in place? What would happen to the government once U.S. forces withdrew? How many casualties should the United States accept in that effort to try to create clarity and stability in a situation that is inherently unstable?-Dick Cheney. April 29, 1991

Or this one:
"I, George W. Bush, promise to protect and uphold the Constitution of the United States, against all enemies, foreign and domestic..."
to
"The Constitution is just a damn piece of paper"
to
asking for a Constitutional Amendment all within 2 years.
It must be really difficult to protect something from yourself...

I know! But you know what? At that time he was answering a question about Saddam killing Kurds who couldn't do anything for us. And Iraq was an ally AND we were supplying him with arms and WMD's. An amazing example of what greed will do to a politician.
