I would regain a good measure of the lost respect, mainly because I would have been proven wrong. I might even give them credit in spie of the handling of this mess. Keep in mind however....I would also happily give a pig credit for its areal expertize should it learn to fly.
Its all good and fine to play of the improbable for your argument Ace....but few will take it seriously and you shouldn't expect otherwise. Its obvious to anyone who watched the video that Cheney understood the implications of going into Bagdad, and allowed it regardless. Hell, Bush Sr, and Shwartzcoff stopped for a damn good reason and explained it at the time. Many military minds suggested it was a bad Idea....but here we are.
Saying he "changed his mind" just isn't enough anymore....and you know it.
