More quotes by 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
You've got a job to do, and because you've got a job to do, you've got to focus on that, so you don't have time for personal considerations.
Dick Cheney
My belief is we will, in fact, be greeted as liberators. . . . I think it will go relatively quickly, . . . [in] weeks rather than months.
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
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.

Except for the occasional heart attack, I never felt better.

I'm up in the Senate most Tuesdays when they're in session.
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.

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
We've never made the case, or argued the case, that somehow Osama Bin Laden was directly involved in 9/11. That evidence has never been forthcoming.
Dick Cheney
I think that freedom means freedom for everyone. As many of you know, one of my daughters is gay and it is something we have lived with for a long time in our family. I think people ought to be free to enter into any kind of union they wish. Any kind of arrangement they wish.
Dick Cheney
We urge all democratic nations and the United Nations to answer the Iraqi Governing Council's call for support for the people of Iraq in making the transition to democracy.
Dick Cheney
I can think of a lot of words to describe Senator Kerry's position on Iraq consistent is not one of them.
Dick Cheney
The question in my mind is how many additional American casualties is Saddam worth? And the answer is not very damned many.
Dick Cheney
I want to avoid personal attacks, ... I promise not to make fun of your singing.
Dick Cheney
There's every reason to believe there will be further attacks attempted against the United States. For us to spend so much time patting ourselves on the back because we got bin Laden that we miss the next attack would be a terrible tragedy.
Dick Cheney
I don't pay a lot of attention, frankly, to what Barack Obama says.
Dick Cheney
I was in end stage heart failure, liver and kidneys shutting down, and on an emergency basis they went in and planted a pump in my chest. It was battery operated. That kept me alive for 20 months and that got me to the transplant. And I wake up every morning now with a smile on my face, thankful for the gift of another day I never expected to see.
Dick Cheney
I learned early on that if you don't want your memos to get you in trouble someday, just don't write any.
Dick Cheney
Everyone knows that you're not really a real man unless you own a gun.
