dick cheney, comedian extraordinaire with special guest, condi rice

Asked by “Meet the Press” host Tim Russert whether the United States would have gone ahead with the invasion anyway if the CIA had reported that Saddam did not, in fact, have such weapons, Cheney said yes.

“He’d done it before,” Cheney said. “He had produced chemical weapons before and used them. He had produced biological weapons. He had a robust nuclear program in ’91.”

The U.S. invasion “was the right thing to do, and if we had to do it again, we would do exactly the same thing,” he said.

“The people obviously are frustrated because of the difficulty, because of the cost and the casualties, but you cannot look at Iraq in isolation,” he said. “You have to look at it within the context of the broader global war on terror. ... If Saddam Hussein were still in power, we would be in a vastly worse position.”

hahahaha..oh wait. it's not supposed to be funny? this is one of the war architects with blood on his hands. over 3000 of our bravest dead. scores of iraqis; both innocent and not so innocent. remind me again why did we invade iraq when it was al-qaeda who orchestrated the WTC tragedy. oh yeah, bush & co. doesn't care about the truth. they had their own pre-9/11 agenda and were going to pursue it regardless.
