Dick Cheney (yesterday): "I was right about Iraq....The world's a much better place without [Saddam Hussein]."
Me: "Please explain, in detail, Mr. Vice President, exactly how it is such a better place."
Since a few thousand Americans and hundreds of thousands of Iraqis lost their lives, I expect a very long and detailed list. I can give you two examples off the top of my head that suggest the opposite. (1) On the day you guys invaded Iraq, you guaranteed that Iran would become the most important power in the Mideast (along with Israel). (2) There were an estimated 1.5 million Christians living in Iraq under Saddam before the war. Most of them are gone, and that was true long before ISIS was around. The Christians in Iraq were probably doomed when you invaded.
