Invading Baghdad Would Create a Quagmire

 

In this interview from April 15th, 1994 Dick Cheney reveals the reasons why invading Baghdad and toppling Saddam Hussein‘s regime wouldn’t be a great idea. He also stipulates that “not very many” American soldiers’ lives were worth losing to take out Saddam during the Gulf War.

Less than a decade later …… ?

Feel we need a shower to cleanse ourselves of this man’s ordure. What an immoral hypocrite he really is! And one of Howard’s “mates”.

Now with Karl Rove deserting the sinking ship on 31 August, perhaps Cheney won’t be far behind. At least he will be more isolated than ever.

Thank you for reading this far!  You might think producing a post like this takes a bit of work. 
It does! If you’ve appreciated it you might consider encouraging me. ( We all like validation! )
