'We Will, In Fact, Be Greeted As Liberators'
            -- VP Dick Cheney
            From Meet the Press, March 16 2003

"I think they're in the last throes, if you will, of the insurgency."
           --Vice President Dick Cheney,
           on the Iraq insurgency, June 20, 2005

"**** Saddam, we're taking him out."
           --President GW Bush
           to three U.S. Senators in March 2002,
           a full year before the Iraq invasion

"It's hard to conceive that it would take more forces to
provide stability in post-Saddam Iraq than it would take
to conduct the war itself and to secure the surrender of
Saddam's security forces and his army. Hard to imagine."
            --Deputy Defense Secretary Paul Wolfowitz,
            testifying before Congress Feb. 27, 2003

 "We found the weapons of mass destruction."
            --President GW Bush,
            in an interview with Polish television, May 29, 2003

"Those weapons of mass destruction have got to be somewhere!"
             --President GW Bush,
             joking about his administration's failure to find WMDs
             in Iraq as he narrated a comic slideshow during the Radio
             & TV Correspondents' Association dinner, March 25, 2004

 "We know where they are. They're in the area around Tikrit and Baghdad
and
east, west, south and north somewhat."
               --Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld,
              when asked about weapons of mass destruction
              in an ABC News interview, March 30, 2003

"I think the burden is on those people who think he didn't have weapons of
mass
destruction to tell the world where they are."
               --White House Press Secretary Ari Fleischer,
                July 9, 2003

"We know he's been absolutely devoted to trying to acquire nuclear
weapons, and
we believe he has, in fact, reconstituted nuclear weapons."
               --Vice President Dick Cheney,
               "Meet The Press" March 16, 2003

 "I don't know anybody that I can think of who has contended that the
Iraqis had
nuclear weapons."
                --Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld,
                June 24, 2003

"Oh, no, we're not going to have any casualties."
               --President GW Bush,
               discussing the Iraq war with Christian broadcaster Pat
Robertson,
               after Robertson told him he should prepare the American
people
               for the reality of war casualties

"Five days or five weeks or five months, but it certainly isn't going to
last any longer than that," he said. "It won't be a World War III."
                   --Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld,
                     claiming the Iraq war wouldn't last long.
