Do have proof that no written report was made? If this is true then how did Tenet know about the result of his investigation? By oral report? What is your definition of a political operative? What was he doing for the Gore campaign? Orca

re:"And he never submitted a written report or any notes on his brief trip to Africa." Methinks you're blowing smoke and really should try googling yourself... onlinecolumnist.com " Tenet's statement fails to mention that he and Vice President Dick Cheney reviewed Ambassador Joseph Wilson's report last fall that Iraq had not contracted with Niger to buy yellow uranium. Tenet now asks to take responsibility for the British intelligence report that appeared in the State of the Union message. "The British government has learned that that Saddam Hussein recently sought significant quantities of uranium," read the State of the Union speech, ignoring Ambassador's Wilson's report. Soon after Bush's speech, the CIA found that the British report was based on forged documents, discounting the viability of Iraq's nuclear weapons program. "It is ludicrous to suggest that the president of the United States went to war on the question of whether Saddam Hussein sought uranium from Africa," said Rice, yet, in a post 9/11 world, Iraq's nuclear threat represented the most persuasive argument for "preemptive" war."
