Dick Cheney '94: Invading Baghdad Would Create Quagmire

I am not posting this to stick it to the administration. His analysis was correct then. What I really want to know is what changed? Did September 11, 2001 change the consequences he foresaw in our going to Iraq? You listen to this and hear a smart, candid assessment. Why isn't that the assessment we bring to bear now?

I assume by "now" you really mean "5-6 years ago" when the decision to invade was being made, right?

That's a good question - I'd love to hear him answer "what was it which changed your mind?" or perhaps "if your mind didn't change, what made you believe that it would be worth it anyway?"
