It's nice to know that the bullshit that Cheney was slinging before the war still works on you. The "connection" was with Ansar al-Islam, which was the terrorist group operating in the part of Northern Iraq outside of Hussein's control. You know -- the group whose camp the Pentagon wanted to bomb, only to be stopped by the White House for fear that support for the war would drop if we killed the terrorists Cheney was busy scaring people with.
