But Sean in one breath you know Tenet is a liar and bad news and then:
George Tenet said nothing about the entire continental United States, NothingMan, absolutely nothing! Nor did he even mention the TD-3 (Hwasong 6)

You are going by what he said here, which is it you believe him or don't? It can't be so selective that one minute yes- one minute no.

Tenet is in my opinion not the right man for the job. He doesn't create the intelligence, the collections and analysts make the intelligence. It's what he passes on to the President, both good intel and BAD intel that I have a problem with, so, yes, I can have it both ways.

For instance, is there any reason whatsoever for the President NOT to be informed that in November a packages of ricin poison had been sent to the White House?

Yet, they maintain the President did not know, that he was NOT informed. It is the job of the Director of Central Intelligence (wearing that hat he is prov to intel for ALL SOURCES) to know, and it is the job of the DIRCIA to inform the President (and the Secret Service) specifically of all threats. We have been told matter of factly that this is not the case.

Similarly, regarding the ICBM technological developments of the DPRK, IF a Taep'o Dong 3 (Hwasong 6) did in fact exist and posed a threat to the entire continental United States (as claimed by NothingMan) don't you think that DCI/DIRCIA Tenet might have made mention of it, even in passing? Fact is, the Congressional record shows he did not.

That is the point I was trying to convey. There are statements backed by verifiable facts and corroborated data and there is unadulterated horse hooey. This data includes reasonable and educated technological assessments bussed upon the opinion of subject matter experts.

I hope this clears up any ambiguities that may have been created.
