Who's trying to"Revise History?"

In a speech given to the American Enterprise Institute, Vice Predident Dick Cheney said:

Any suggestion that prewar information was distorted, hyped or fabricated by the leader of this nation is utterly false. This is revisionism of the most corrupt and shameless variety. It has no place anywhere in American politics.


Who does he think he's fooling? Isn't this the same Dick Cheney who said on Meet the Press in 2002 that "We know for a fact" and "We have confirmed" that Saddam had all sorts of frightening weapons, including a reconstited nuclear weapons program, and when asked if Iraq was involved in the 9/11 terrorist attacks, shrugged his shoulders and said "We just don't know!"

If he were asked if the Nazis, the Pasadena PTA, or space aliens were involved in 9/11, would he say "We just don't know"?

Is there any way to reconcile his statements other than by concluding that Cheney is the most brazen liar ever to hold his position?
