Quagmire

Here's a devastating 1994 interview with Dick Cheney on C-SPAN when he is asked about whether he agrees that President Bush (Senior) did the right thing when he decided not to go on to Baghdad and take out Saddam Hussein. Cheney predicts that the U.S. would have gotten stuck in a quagmire if they toppled Saddam. And, noting the 146 Americans who died during the first Gulf War, he goes on to ask, "How many additional dead Americans is Saddam Hussein worth?" and answers his own question: "Not very many."

Is it possible to do something, a la Back to the Future, where the 1994 Cheney visits the 2002 Cheney and knocks some sense into him?
