Does not matter what the British stood by, because Tenet knew that the intelligence was bogus, and did not object to it being in the SOTU.

We've been over this and over this. The pattern is clear. One of deception and misleading the country into thinking the war was urgent. We all know this was not the case now. Even Tenet is apologizing for not doing his job properly.

No Nukes, No WMD, No Al-Qaeda connection. Hence no urgency.

Bush has gotta go. He breached the trust of the American people, over and over. This can not go un rebuked. He should allow a complete review of how intelligence was used. So far the Senate is blocking a review, but Bush if he has nothing to hide should call for the independent bi-partisan commision today. Don't hold yer breath.

Tenet previously issued a statement saying that he should have raised objections to the Iraq-Africa-uranium sentence when the CIA reviewed an advance copy of the president's speech.

Hadley is the top aide to National Security Adviser Condoleezza Rice.

The controversial passage citing a British intelligence report "should have been taken out of the State of the Union," Hadley said. He said he was taking responsibility on behalf of the presidential staff just as Tenet had done for the CIA.

"There were a number of people who could have raised a hand" to have the passage removed from the draft of Mr. Bush's Jan. 28 address, Hadley said. "And no one raised a hand."
