It’s a quagmire if you go that far and try to take over Iraq.
Not all that much is needed as a comment here. Basically, Cheney was against the invasion of Iraq way back when in 1994. To read his comments he sounds like an Iraq war protestor in today’s context. The word “quagmire” is especially nostalgic, reminding one of just a couple of years ago when you were practically a traitor for saying the Iraq war was a quagmire. That’s what Republicans call “the good old days.”
Of course, things were different by the time Cheney had changed his mind. There were WMDs in Iraq by the time he was Veep… or maybe not.
I wonder if the Guinness Book of Records has an entry for the biggest pair of flip flops.
