George Tenet liar, liar pants on fire!

George Tenet is really just a victim right? Poor guy, they scapegoated him! I seem to remember back before Colin Powell -- who for some reason is getting a major pass for the WMD lies -- made that shameful speech at the UN on Feb. 5 2003, George Tenet had to be brought in to get him to read it.

Remember the US News and World Report article about what went on when Powell was going over the draft of the speech that Scooter Libby had provided for him?

AFP:

"The draft contained such questionable material that Powell lost his temper, throwing several pages in the air and declaring, 'I'm not reading this. This is bullshit.'"

It was George Tenet that swooped in and told everything was thriple checked. Of Course, it turned out Powell made a complete as of himself in front of the world and now Tenet is claiming he's the victim. Some former CIA officiers are saying he should have resigned rather that sign off on a war he knew was going to turn into a disaster. He says, though, that he couldn't have known what was going to happen, but then he goes on to says the CIA got it right about what was going to happen. [This is from an interview on NPR which I can't get the link to because the damn crappy library computer keeps crashing.]

Tenet is a real lying sack of you know what.
