“Kelly’s attitude aside, was Cheney and Bush wrong to invade Iraq?”

They were absolutely right to invade Iraq. With the intel that was coming in, it would have been negligent for any President not to invade Iraq, at that time.

The error was in sticking around to nation build. 250 killed in military phase. 4,200 killed in nation building phase.

The biggest lesson learned is that 1. Some cultures simply aren’t ready to live in constitutional republics, and 2. Nation building is long, ugly and protracted and Democrats will come in and screw it up even worse.

I’m through with Kelly and several other of the Fox newsbabes. I can’t listen to their strident (word for the Day) voices and the way they talk over their guests.

When my 3 boys were growing up they liked to watch Fox News, but they preferred to watch it with the mute button pressed.

If Cheney must apologize, so should ALL the members of Congress who voted for it! Hindsight is 20/20, and the Cheney is being targeted for this crap.

Bush, Cheney, & Co. were routinely criticized by the Left, in the harshest terms. Obama blamed Bush daily for any & everything. What goes around, comes around.

Cheney had every right to criticize Obama’s many & obvious failures.

I am disappointed in Kelly.

Was the gassing of the Kurds fake too?

Cavuto is always fair and balanced. That’s how he gets so many to come on his show.

Ping me the next time that Cavuto DOES NOT trash a guest with the Liberal’s point of view.

BTW, are Neil Cavoto and Mr. Ed from the MSNBC Hit Show “Mr. Ed Show” brothers or just cousins?

I am STILL trying to understand why we invaded Iraq in the first place?

All we succeeded in doing was making the middle east more unstable.

The 911 Hijackers were Saudis but we invaded Iraq???

German intelligence investigated and found he was a fraud but we bought it.

If one (Bush) makes a prudent judgment based on the best available evidence, the fact that evidence is thereafter determined to be partially or wholly imperfect, does not render the decision invalid - especially where the decision was peer-supported.

(I also seem to recall the Germans were heavily involved in the manufacturing process, or had some degree of interest.)

If I could I would send you to a worse place than the moon. In fact, I’d send all you miseable liberals there together. Dick Cheney has done more for this country than you could only dream abour.

For all defending her...”“Time and time again, history has proven that you got it wrong as well in Iraq, sir,” she said”

History? If Cheney wants to defend himself, sure the intel was there, but what about the proof of what our troops found? Why isn’t that ever brought up and the fact that Syria used the crud, too?

Personally, I can’t watch women do news. Something just hits the radar. Maybe because women gossip so much or the pitch of our voices. No clue, just can’t, and I have tried. So I read here.

Can you detail some of them?

In other words, would the world be relatively safer with Saddam Hussein still at the helm?

Perhaps, but I don't think it matters. The region's and the religion's long history, along with our recent experiences, suggest his was just another page in a continuous cycle of repeating stories.

That we felt the need to try to stabilize it somehow is further proof to me that President Washington was correct about intermeddling in foreign governments.

Our road to hell is paved by both our good intentions and our need for revenge.

Moderation in everything would seem to be a good general rule for both nations and individuals.

Megyn Kelly’s attitude and tone toward VP Cheney really annoyed me. It was not necessary to ask the questions with that bravado. Brett & Greta asked Hillary some tough questions but were respectful - too much so IMHO.

Next time have Megyn interview Hillary and Greta interview Cheney.

How about OPPOSITION supported?

Count them — Joe Biden, John Kerry, Hillary Clinton, Harry Reid, John Edwards, Chuck Schumer, Maria Cantwell, Chris Dodd, etc. ALL VOTED IN FAVOR OF THE RESOLUTION TO INVADE IRAQ.

I don’t need to ping you. Try watching his shows and decide for yourself.

That is significant, of course, and those who try to rewrite history to suit their agenda do everything they can to distract us from those pages.
