Now he's pretending that his "slam dunk" comment was taken out-of-context. Suuuuuure, Tenet had no idea it would be. Right.

Face it man, they are criminally incompetent. They didn't just rush to war, they proceeded to mess it up in every imaginable way. and you still defend them.

re: Why waste an ounce of skepticism on Tenet when you can continue pouring it all onto the Bush adminstration?

Come on Ten, are you still defending the incompetent boobs? I'm not skeptical of the Bush admin, I'm completely convinced.

re: "Straw man" is just your excuse for not having to explain your own contradictory positions.

No, "strawman" is your discussion method.

Tenet is a self-serving bureaucrat who sucked up to his boss Bush by telling him what he so obviously wanted to hear. I have no sympathy for him and his poor-me, victim bullshit.

If he wanted to serve the country, why didn't he come forward before the 2004 elections instead of on his book tour? Why didn't he resign instead of spoon feeding Bush the flaky intel that served the neocon agenda?

But all of that doesn't mean he isn't telling the truth. I'm sure the Dem REAL investigations will shed more light..
