More quotes by Dick Cheney
In his years in Washington, Senator Kerry has been one vote of a hundred in the United States Senate - and fortunately on matters of national security, he was very often in the minority.
Dick Cheney
The biggest threat we face is the possibility of terrorist groups like al Qaeda equipped with weapons of mass destruction, with nukes, bugs or gas. That was the threat after 9/11 and when we took down Saddam Hussein we eliminated Iraq as a potential source of that.
Dick Cheney
I think we need to significantly reduce the regulatory burden on the private sector. The Obama administration is doing the opposite. They're loading on more and more regulation on the private respect to how the economy functions.
Dick Cheney
When we get people who are more concerned about reading the rights to an Al Qaeda terrorist than they are with protecting the United States against people who are absolutely committed to do anything they can to kill Americans, then I worry.
Dick Cheney
Remember, success for a politician is 50% plus one. You don't have to have everybody on board.
Dick Cheney
One of the worst things we could do is start to act now as though the attack of 9/11 is a thing of the past and will never be repeated. That's just not true.
Dick Cheney
We need to have a pro-growth policy put in place that offers people hope and offers the opportunity for businesses to expand and for them to have confidence in what the world is going to look like for the next two or three or four years with respect to economic policy.
Dick Cheney
Another argument holds that opposing Saddam Hussein would cause even greater troubles in that part of the world, and interfere with the larger war against terror. I believe the opposite is true.
Dick Cheney
I worry very much that we're in a situation now where there doesn't appear to be any limitation whatsoever in terms of the spending commitments that Obama's administration wants to make. Vast expansion in terms of the deficit, but it also says a lot about what they intend for the role of government in the society.
Dick Cheney
When George Bush asked me to sign on, it obviously wasn't because he was worried about carrying Wyoming. We got 70 percent of the vote in Wyoming, although those three electoral votes turned out to be pretty important last time around.
Dick Cheney
I don't pay a lot of attention, frankly, to what Barack Obama says.
Dick Cheney
It used to be you needed to have a very large sophisticated state before you could even have a nuclear weapon... Now the technology is widespread enough. It doesn't take very many people to be able to cobble together a devastating attack, and all it takes is one.
Dick Cheney
I do find that the mainstream media oftentimes is what I would consider off base or has a bias.
Dick Cheney
The Federalist Society has made important contributions to the nation's understanding of our constitutional heritage.
Dick Cheney
I support the President's plan to amend the Constitution, banning same-sex marriage.
Dick Cheney
I think I was able to survive five heart attacks because I never postponed going to the hospital when something didn't feel right.
Dick Cheney
My belief is we will, in fact, be greeted as liberators.
Dick Cheney
If the Democratic policies had been pursued over the last two or three years... we would not have had the kind of job growth we've had.
Dick Cheney
Simply stated, there is no doubt that Saddam Hussein now has weapons of mass destruction. There is no doubt he is amassing them to use against our friends, against our allies, and against us.
Dick Cheney
You cannot be driven by the polls. The polls change all the time they're easily manipulated by whoever wants to ask those poll questions they go up they go down.
