«The flaws in the intelligence are plain enough in hindsight, but any suggestion that prewar information was distorted, hyped or fabricated by the leader of the nation is utterly false, ... Senator John McCain put it best: 'It is a lie to say that the president lied to the American people.' »
Author: Dick Cheney
(Vice President)
«While you're there, you become much more brusque with people. I always thought of myself as a calm, pleasant, warm, lovable sort, but after the '76 convention, some people in the press began calling me the Grand Teton. I can remember being short with people and, in the eyes of some, abrasive. But that's all I had time for.»
Author: Dick Cheney
(Vice President)
«This is the same dictator who dispatched a team of assassins to murder former President Bush as he traveled abroad. A person would be right to question any suggestion that we should just get inspectors back into Iraq, and then our worries will be over. Saddam has perfected the game of cheat and retreat, and is very skilled in the art of denial and deception. A return of inspectors would provide no assurance whatsoever of his compliance with U.N. resolutions. On the contrary, there is a great danger that it would provide false comfort that Saddam was somehow back in his box.»
Author: Dick Cheney
(Vice President)
«Meanwhile, he would continue to plot. Nothing in the last dozen years has stopped him - not his agreements; not the discoveries of the inspectors; not the revelations by defectors; not criticism or ostracism by the international community; and not four days of bombings by the US in 1998. What he wants is time and more time to husband his resources, to invest in his ongoing chemical and biological weapons programs, and to gain possession of nuclear arms.»

(Vice President)
«The image of him falling is something I'll never ever be able to get out of my mind.»
Author: Dick Cheney
(Vice President)
«I fired, and there's Harry falling. It was, I'd have to say, one of the worst days of my life at that moment.»
Author: Dick Cheney
(Vice President)
«I ran over to him. He was laying there on his back, obviously, bleeding. You could see where the shot struck him.»
Author: Dick Cheney
(Vice President)
«I said, 'Harry, I had no idea you were there.' He didn't respond.»
Author: Dick Cheney
(Vice President)
«Ultimately, I'm the guy who pulled the trigger that fired the round that hit Harry.»
