Found this while researching. This is good. Listen to Cheney talk about going into Baghdad way back in 1994 and how it would be a very bad idea.

"Once you take down Saddam's Government, what do you replace it with? That is a very volitile part of the world,.....The other thing was American casualties.The question for the President was how many dead American soldiers was Saddam worth? And our judgement was 0, and i think we got it right."

So i wonder what changed good ole uncle Dick's mind on this issue? I mean the guy has had 5 heart attacks since 1978. Maybe it was his implantation of an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator in June, 2001 that really made him change his lifelong goals?

Either way some external force has seemed to have changed this man's mind on how we use our Military. ??????
