Forsooth, in 1994 Dick Cheney accurately foresaw the quagmire the US has experienced since invading Iraq... How Cheney must have busied himself between 1994 and 2003, establishing his network and compacts and positioning himself to reap the rich harvest, which he knew would be an opportunity for those prepared to take advantage of it... When asked for a comment on Cheney's prognostication, his spokesperson said, "He was not Vice President at the time, it was after he was Secretary of Defense. I don't have any comment."
