According to a Senate Intelligence staffer, the Democrats told Tenet that their support of him probably could not be sustained given what the draft report had to say about the CIA's performance a little over a year ago.

What makes this so disgraceful is that these same Democrats would be falling all over themselves to defend him if Al Gore were president today.

So where was THEIR OVERSIGHT? Who's gonna investigate the Congressional committees that let all this occur on their watch? It's called OVERSIGHT for a reason, isn't it?

"The decision saves the DNC about $2 million, and means that journalists, cameramen and others associated with the media will most likely have to endure security check-ins at least twice a day, as the media center will be outside the convention's security perimeter."

If the Republicans tried this the headline of every "Liberal Rag" would spout the bankrupcy of the party and how G.W's failure brought it on.

Like all misbehavior by liberals, it is excused because "they mean well and care about the children".

Our islamic intelligence cadres are either made up of pan islamists like osama bin laden recruited during the 80's, shiites cobbled together by khoemini against saddam or other's who view the the US as an imperialist power

We'd need divine intervention to make an agency like that actually perform.

i don't think any of this was tenet's fault. Since al qaeda had been there long before tenet assumed office.
it hadn't even been identified till tenet took over.

Tenet was the first director who actually identified al qaeda .

I think it happened because of a split within our islamic cadres as the shiites and the wahhabis finally split over the taliban.

had that split not taken place, these two islamic factions together would have still been feeding us crap, and playing us for fools.

Don't lose sight of the fact that Jamie Gorelick is ensconced on the committee ... instead of being sworn in to be questioned, she is making policy and defining the 'failures'. Sick damn democrats will be the death of this Republic!
