Nope. I am neither Democrat nor Republican. I do not go to far left sites. I get my news, daily, from The New York Times and other independent outlets.
I have tried to find links but they are buried under crap, given the the stories I referenced are now 8 or so years old. I do not have time to dig for news that anyone could have read before had they been paying attention.
BTW In office Cheney remained a "consultant" for Halliburton and then apparently re-deepened his involvement after leaving office.
You also forget about Bush/Cheney complicity in the war industries Carlyle Group and Bechtel Corp.
The Iraq war was not about a dictator or WMD's, as was indicated above. Like most wars, it was about the greed of powerful people.
