- I dont really give a *** about Tenet and his faults. Truth of the matter is that Cheney, Rice, and Bush are the ones to blame because they made the ultimate decision to go to war. Truthfully, Cheney and Rice are the ones to really blame based on their aggressivness toward other people, the mass amounts of money they were to make on this conflict, and because I think they are on such a power trip, its crazy. Tenet needs to spill as much information as he can about The War Against Terror (T-W-A-T) haha

- George Tenet was a Clinton appointee and was kept by Bush.
That would explain why BOTH PRESIDENTS Clinton & Bush went on TV explaining Hussein was "developing Weapons of Mass Destruction"
Maybe neither Clinton nor Bush lied about WMD, maybe they were both misled by this idiot.

- Don't worry we don't pity National Review on line either... Your President and his little war - it's all worked out so grand...
Where does the buck stop? Anywhere but El Presidente's desk...

- yeah, and maybe Santa Claus is resting in Aruba, that's why we can't find him in the north pole. Maybe tomorrow it will rain upside down and roaches will actually sing in spanish "la cucaracha" if they don't will just have to send the marines to find them. Halliburton, bush , cheney,wolfowitz and their friends and girlfriends (in wolfowitz case) will find a way to use your tax payers money till it runs out, I'm sure they will enojoy making mansions in exotic places, like Kenneth Lay from enron did with the retirement money of his workers. If money runs out, no problems, there is always social security benefits, or veteran benefits we can do without, they are the ones who wanted this war anyway.

- The one possibility that continues to be overlooked is that perhaps Tenet, Clinton and Bush were ALL correct - that Saddam did indeed have WMD - just that the U.N. inspectors were blind of the fact that Saddam moved them out of the country before the war started.

This is an interesting position that I've heard before. But consider this ... if your theory is correct ... it still means that GW's invasion failed it's main mission. GW's goal was to get rid of the WMD ... if they move, he failed.
And, if Saddam was able to move them somewhere else before GW could get there ... GW's preinvasion bluster helped accelerate the movement.
Same is true for GWs "Aix of Evil" speech. He basically warned Iran and North Korea that they better accelerate their efforts BEFORE we got to them.
And they have. - Reply to this comment

This possibility cannot be ruled out yet; absence of proof is not proof of absence. - Reply to this comment
