Regarding Tenet did you watch the "Frontline" story tonight? I would suppose you did not.

Bush-Cheney are big-time liars on Iraq. Tenet only lied about the WMD after months of being pressured by Cheney's group. Cheney went to the CIA ten times to intimidate them into skewing intel and putting out a fabricated NIA to "prove" a case for war. The WMD and Al Qaida connection stories were pure fiction. Why did Tenet go along with it? Becvause if he didn't kiss Cheney's fat lying butt (and Cheney-Rumsfield are in charge of our foreign policy, not Bush) Tenet was going to be fired. To save his job Tenet threw out his integrity and made a deal with the devil. If you watched the Frontline show last night, it laid out the politics very clearly. Tenet started playing along with Bush-cheney's fiction on Iraq to save his butt, and then they all tricked Powell into lying in front of the UN. Rice was also a big fat liar. As were the rightwing pundit types and Hannity-Limbaugh propaganda machine. All liars. All parroting the same nonsense Cheney's group fabricated. And they lied to congress too. Which is criminal. Tenet was betrayed by Bush-Cheney-Rumsfield. They used him to manipulate the CIA's assessment and pressure the analysts to write up fiction instead of fact, then they made him take the fall, fired him and gave him a medal. The fact is, Bush lied about the State Of The Union speech being cleared by Tenet and the CIA. Tenet never saw it, and had told the WH not to use the uranium story several times because it was 100% bogus. So Joe Wilson was 100% right. Bush and Cheney are serial liars and cheats who have driven our military into quicksand and let the real terrorists go. In fact the real story here is how by invading Iraq they basically abandoned the real war on terror, which further infuriated the CIA and Special Operators. Now the Taliban is back in Afghanistan and OBL lives. Bush-Cheney can never be trusted again. Not at all. They need to be impeached. They are badly damaging our country and endangering our future. They are also letting their cronies rob this country blind. The Controller General just reported our deficits have doubled in the past five years and it's getting worse not better. That's under Bush. WHo lied when he promised to cut deficits in half in five years. Instead, he's deliberately doubled them.

>>Before or after Bush doubted the evidence, and Tenet assured him it was a "slam-dunk case"?<< Nadine - Another way to view that famous meeting is that Bush didn't think the case would convince the public. Since he really wanted a war, he needed a way to justify it, and he was telling Tenet that the evidence he had presented didn't sound strong enough. - Allen
