Does anyone have a list of quotes about Cheney being wrong on Iraq and other things?

[ck4829]

I'm making a page on Dick Cheney's (lack of) credibility and putting it in the RW Infopedia, so I need some quotes by Cheney being a nostradummy.

1. Pick any quote and it's probably a lie

Usually preceded by ... "the fact of the matter is" (his tell)
Google finds 145,000 citations.

Pick one :-)

2. Not a direct quote

but I like to point people to this when they claim W only invaded Iraq as a last resort:

"The Vice President dropped by a Senate Republican policy lunch soon after his 10-day tour of the Middle East ...Before he spoke, he said no one should repeat what he said. Then he gave them some surprising news. The question was no longer if the U.S. would attack Iraq, he said. The only question was when."

Vice President Richard Cheney on Chemical and Biological Weapons:

"In terms of the question what is there now, we know for example that prior to our going in that he had spent time and effort acquiring mobile biological weapons labs, and we're quite confident he did, in fact, have such a program. We've found a couple of semi trailers at this point which we believe were, in fact, part of that program."

Vice President Richard Cheney on Al-Qaeda:

"I continue to believe. I think there's overwhelming evidence that there was a connection between al-Qaeda and the Iraqi government. We've discovered since documents indicating that a guy named Abdul Rahman Yasin, who was a part of the team that attacked the World Trade Center in '93, when he arrived back in Iraq was put on the payroll and provided a house, safe harbor and sanctuary. That's public information now. So Saddam Hussein had an established track record of providing safe harbor and sanctuary for terrorists. . . . I mean, this is a guy who was an advocate and a supporter of terrorism whenever it suited his purpose, and I'm very confident that there was an established relationship there."

Vice President Richard Cheney on Al-Qaeda:

"Saddam Hussein had a lengthy history of reckless and sudden aggression. His regime cultivated ties to terror, including the al Qaeda network, and had built, possessed, and used weapons of mass destruction."
