Mr. Vice President, welcome once again to our program. THE VICE PRESIDENT: Well, thank you, Rush. It\u2019s good to be back on. <img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/Interview_with_Vice_President_Richard_B__Cheney.Par.89380.ImageFile.jpg\" width=\"304\" height=\"179\" class=\"alignright\"\/>RUSH: I can imagine. Now, let\u2019s start talking about the supplemental funding bill for Iraq. I have to tell you something that I heard last night as I\u2019m watching some of the cable news network shows. Some of the Democrats and Democrat commentators, are saying publicly now they expect that the president is eventually going to back off the veto threat because he will he will eventually realize that he cannot be seen as de-funding the troops. THE VICE PRESIDENT: No, he has been very, very firm in his insistence, Rush, that if they send him a bill with limitations on his ability to function as commander-in-chief or restrictions on the troops or with a withdrawal date that in effect would tell our enemies we\u2019re going to quit, he will veto it. He\u2019s also said the same thing if the bills are loaded up with pork on non-essential spending. So he\u2019s been very, very clear. No one should be mistaken about that. RUSH: Where do you think this is going to go? The Democrats don\u2019t seem to be in any hurry to have this go to conference, have a final bill voted upon, and then sent up to the White House for the veto. How long is this going to take, do you suspect?<\/line><BR\/>THE VICE PRESIDENT: Well, I hope it only takes a couple of weeks. You know, they all took off for vacation as soon as they passed the bills, but so far the House hasn\u2019t even appointed conferees, and they\u2019re gonna be out next week as well, too. The Senate is coming back next week. RUSH: You and the president both, have derided the theatrics of Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi and a number of the Democrats, and I don\u2019t know if you\u2019re being politic with the statement because I, frankly, need to ask you if you really think it\u2019s &#8216;theatrics\u2019 or is this who they really are? Is this what they really intend: to lose this war, to make sure we come home defeated? THE VICE PRESIDENT: Well, I think that the policies that they are recommending would in fact produce that result. I\u2019ve got some friends on the other side of the aisle, and I don\u2019t want question everybody\u2019s motives. I do believe that a significant portion of the Democrats &#8212; including, I think, Nancy Pelosi &#8212; are adamantly opposed to the war and prepared to pack it in and come home in defeat, rather than put in place or support a policy that will lead to victory. RUSH: Do you understand that? THE VICE PRESIDENT: That\u2019s the fundamental difference. RUSH: Can you share with us whether or not you understand their devotion, or their seeming allegiance, to the concept of US defeat? THE VICE PRESIDENT: I can\u2019t. It seems to me so abundantly clear, Rush, that we really need to prevail in this conflict, that there\u2019s an awful lot riding on it. It\u2019s not just about Iraq. It\u2019s about our efforts in the global war on terror, and that entire part of the world, affects what\u2019s going on in Iran where we\u2019re trying to make sure they don\u2019t develop a nuclear weapon. You can imagine the extent to which the Iranians would be heartened in that effort, if they see us withdraw from Iraq next door. We got Musharraf and Pakistan and Karzai in Afghanistan, who put their lives on the line every day, in effect, supporting our efforts to deal with the extremists and the terrorists in part of the world. If they say us bail out in Iraq they clearly would lose confidence in our capacity to carry through and get the job done. So, it\u2019s absolutely essential we do it. I don\u2019t know what the motive is. They seem to think that we can withdraw from Iraq and walk away from it. They ignore the lessons of the past. Remember what happened in Afghanistan. We\u2019d been involved in Afghanistan in the eighties, supporting the Mujahideen against the Soviets and prevailed. We won. Everybody walked away, and in the nineties, Afghanistan became a safe haven for terrorists, an area for training camps where Al-Qaeda trained 20,000 terrorists in the late nineties, and the base from which they launched attacks on the United States on 9\/11. So those are very real problems, and to advocate withdrawal from Iraq at this point, it seems to me, simply would play right into the hands of Al-Qaeda. RUSH: It may not just be Iraq. Yesterday I read that Ike Skelton, who chairs &#8212; I forget the name of the committee &#8212; in the next defense appropriations bill for fiscal \u201908, is going to actually remove the phrase &#8216;global war on terror,\u2019 because they don\u2019t think it\u2019s applicable. They want to refer to conflicts as individual skirmishes, but they\u2019re going to try to rid the defense appropriation bill, and thus official government language, of that term. Does that give any indication of their motivation, or what they think of the current plight in which the country finds itself? THE VICE PRESIDENT: Sure. Well, it\u2019s just flawed thinking. I like Ike Skelton. I worked closely with Ike when I was secretary of defense. He\u2019s chairman of the Armed Services Committee now. Ike\u2019s a good man. He\u2019s just dead wrong about this, though. Think about it. Just to give you one example, Rush. Remember Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, a Jordanian terrorist, an Al-Qaeda affiliate. He ran a training camp in Afghanistan for Al-Qaeda, then migrated after we went into Afghanistan and shut \u2019em down there, he went to Baghdad. He took up residence there before we ever launched into Iraq, organized the Al-Qaeda operations inside Iraq before we even arrived on the scene and then of course led the charge for Iraq until we killed him last June. He\u2019s the guy who arranged the bombing of the Samarra mosque that precipitated the sectarian violence between Shi\u2019a and Sunni. This is Al-Qaeda operating in Iraq, and as I say, they were present before we invaded Iraq. There\u2019s no way you can segment out and say, &#8216;Well, we\u2019ll fight the war on terror in Pakistan or Afghanistan but we can separate Iraq. That\u2019s not really, in any way, shape, or form related.\u2019 It\u2019s just dead wrong. Bin Laden has said this is the central battle in the war on terror. RUSH: I have to think the Democrats know all of this, too, which puzzles people even more as to why they seem devoted to pulling out of there with defeat securely in hand. Not only would what you detail happen, but the next conflict, the next battle that we find ourselves in &#8212; there will be one &#8212; how tough is it going to be to assemble allies if they think we might just pull out in the middle of the whole thing before it\u2019s complete? THE VICE PRESIDENT: Well, it would be very tough. Remember what Al-Qaeda is betting on here. They cannot beat us in a stand-up fight. They never have. What they\u2019re betting is that they can break our well, that they can in fact force the American people to retreat, that we\u2019ll finally get tired of the battle and go home, and then they win. The only way they can win is if we quit, and to adopt a policy that says, &#8216;We\u2019re going to withdraw from Iraq,\u2019 would do precisely that. It in effect hand the victory to the terrorists. It validates the whole Al-Qaeda strategy. The other thing you can be sure of is, once they figure out if they attack America often enough we\u2019ll change our policies, they\u2019ll keep attacking America. RUSH: You have a lot of supporters in this audience, obviously, and they\u2019re chomping at the bit to help. What could people in this audience do to assist the effort to get the supplemental passed as the president wants it? THE VICE PRESIDENT: Well, I think they ought to make it clear to their member of Congress that this is a question of supporting the troops. These are young men and women who put their lives on the line every day for this country. They deserve the absolute, unequivocal support of the United States, the Congress, the funding that\u2019s in that bill, the resources that they need to do the job we ask them to do for us. This is a real test. You cannot pursue this fiction that some of them like to pursue that they quote, &#8216;support the troops\u2019 but they\u2019re opposed everything the troops are doing. That\u2019s just a nonsensical statement. It\u2019s very, very important that this legislation go forward and that members of Congress be judged based on whether or not they really do support the troops when they\u2019re put to the test. RUSH: A couple of quick more things before you have to go. What\u2019s the administration\u2019s view today, what\u2019s the emotion, what are you thinking about Speaker Pelosi\u2019s trip to the Middle East, specifically the conveyance of the incorrect message to Bashar Assad in Syria about peace talks with Israel? THE VICE PRESIDENT: Well, it\u2019s not helpful. I made it clear earlier that I thought this created difficulties, if I can put it in a gentle form. Obviously, she\u2019s the speaker of the House and ought to travel to foreign nations and ought to conduct visits. RUSH: She\u2019s not entitled to make her own foreign policy, is she? THE VICE PRESIDENT: She\u2019s not entitled to make policy. She, in this particular case, by going to Damascus at this stage it serves to reinforce, if you will, and reward Bashar Assad for his bad behavior. He\u2019s done all kinds of things that are not in the interests of the United States, including allowing Syria to be an area from which attacks are launched against our people inside Iraq. He obviously was heavily involved, right now, in supporting an effort by Hezbollah to try to topple the government in Lebanon. This is a bad actor, and until he changes his behavior he should not be rewarded about visits by the speaker of the House of Representatives. RUSH: Well, how much damage has she done by conveying to Assad that Israel is ready for peace talks when Israel is not ready for peace talks as Syria is currently constituted? THE VICE PRESIDENT: Well, I think, clearly, she stimulated a reaction out of the Israeli. Prime Minister Olmert immediately made it clear that she was not authorized to make any such offer to Bashir Assad. Among other things, of course, the Syrians have not renounced their support for terror. The major terrorist organizations that are dedicated to the destruction of Israel, such as Hamas, are headquartered in Damascus, Syria. It was a non-statement, a nonsensical statement. It didn\u2019t make any sense at all that she would suggest that those talks could go forward as long as the Syrians conducted themselves as a prime state sponsor of terror. RUSH: You are a reserved individual &#8212; THE VICE PRESIDENT: (chuckles) RUSH: &#8212; and very professional, and you\u2019ve been doing this a long time, but I\u2019m asking this for people in my audience as well as me. How do you feel when this&#8230;? Don\u2019t you get enraged when this kind of thing happens? THE VICE PRESIDENT: (chuckles) Well, I\u2019ve been around a long time. I\u2019m obviously disappointed. I think it is, in fact, bad behavior on her part. I wish she hadn\u2019t done it, but she is the speaker of the House, and fortunately I think the various parties involved recognize she doesn\u2019t speak for the United States in those circumstances. She doesn\u2019t represent the administration. The president is the one that conducts foreign policy, not the speaker of the House. RUSH: One more, and that\u2019s the recess appointment of Sam Fox. Sam Fox is from my home state, and I know of Sam Fox. He\u2019s an immigrant, a Ukrainian-Jewish immigrant whose parents had nothing. When they died, they had nothing. He is a totally self-made man, a great American, and he was treated horribly by Senator Kerry and others on that committee, simply because he had made a political donation. They essentially told him he did not have free speech in this country, and until he would apologize, \u2019til he would go up to Kerry and apologize for supporting the swift boats&#8230; Now the president has recess appointed him, and of course the Democrats say they\u2019re going to investigate this and going to look into this. This is the kind of move that garners a lot of support from the people in the country. This shows the administration willing to engage these people, and not allow them to get away with this kind of &#8212; well, my term, you don\u2019t have to accept it &#8212; &#8216;Stalinist behavior\u2019 by those people on that committee. THE VICE PRESIDENT: Well, you\u2019re dead on, Rush. I know Sam well. He\u2019s a good friend of mine and has been for many years, I think he\u2019s a great appointment and he\u2019ll do a superb job as our ambassador to Belgium. I was delighted when the president made the recess appointment. He clearly has that authority under the Constitution &#8212; RUSH: You go on vacation, this is what happens. THE VICE PRESIDENT &#8212; and you\u2019re right. John Kerry basically shot it down. RUSH: Well, you go on vacation, this is what happens to you, if you\u2019re the Democrats. THE VICE PRESIDENT: (laughs) All right. RUSH: Mr. Vice President, thanks for your time. It really is always a pleasure to talk to you, and we appreciate your candor when you come on the program, very much so. All the best, and have a great Easter weekend, you and your family. THE VICE PRESIDENT: All right. Thanks, Rush. I enjoy the show. RUSH: Thank you.
