Cheney (1992):
And the question in my mind is how many additional American casualties is Saddam (Hussein) worth? And the answer is not that damned many. So, I think we got it right, both when we decided to expel him from Kuwait, but also when the president made the decision that we'd achieved our objectives and we were not going to go get bogged down in the problems of trying to take over and govern Iraq..."

This sentiment of Cheney's lends credence to those who believe it likely that this administration believed much of what it told the world regarding Hussein's WMD threat.
