Fox News ^ | 27 Apr 2007 | Unknown

Al Qaeda is in the United States, former CIA Director George Tenet says, and he’s surprised there have not been more attacks on American soil.

“I do know one thing in my gut,” Tenet writes in his upcoming book. “Al Qaeda is here and waiting.”

Tenet, who served as CIA chief from 1997 to 2004, questioned how Al Qaeda hasn’t sent “suicide bombers to cause chaos in a half-dozen American shopping malls on any given day.”

Tenet's 549-page book, "At the Center of the Storm," published by HarperCollins, is set to hit the bookstores on Monday. ...more

Gee, George, the horse is already out the gate and I’ll bet that horse was out during your time with Booba Clinton and you should have seen this coming. After all, weren’t you the head of the CIA?????????

Are you not amazed that this country has not experienced another (overt) terrorist attack since 9/11. I can only assume that these operatives are either incompetent, or exceedingly patient—I mean the ones that aren’t rotting in Gitmo.

Terrorist Surveillance Act... even the dims have stated that we have gotten tremendous intel by monitoring terrorists communicating from OUTSIDE of this Nation, to terrorists within this Nation. If EVERYONE involved talked about it being a very necessary program... perhaps we are getting more intel by allowing them to stay in place while being monitored. We did the same thing with soviet spooks.

Democratic leadership is far easier to predict and manipulate using terror and lawfare on the global stage.

Ain’t that the sorry, outrageous truth.

A more devastating attack on the future status of American troops could not have been launched by AQ than what happened in the House and Senate last day or two.

I wish he would have stated that the Democratic enemy had become a more dangerous enemy.

O do not think he was from the ranks, I think he was a clitoon guy all the way, and Bush made the mistake of keeping him on in his New Tone stupidness.

I don’t recall the details.

I recall at the time that a lot of people thought he was an honorable person.

The Congressional Democrats are allies of the terrorists. They are working hand in hand with the enemy to undermine our troops. The Democrats are causing more of our soldiers to be killed or wounded in action. Congressional Democrats have announced that the United States has lost the war against terrorism, and they have announced to the world that the United States will totally submit to terrorists in a few months. This of course causes the enemy to be emboldened, to keep fighting. The Congressional Democrats are substantially increasing the risk that there will be more 9/11’s, with hundreds of thousands of Americans being killed by nuclear, chemical, or biological weapons, also destroying our economy, and freedom. The Congressional Democrats are the Enemy Within. They are traitors, and the penality for treason should be death by hanging.

This from a man who was privy to the most secret agency in America?Maybe he is a little miffed that certain elements kept him in the dark for a reason?If he had any doubts about it then,we can all understand it now.Blabbimg about what he is now shows how despicable he was then..Klintoon holdover!?What the hell was that all about.Methinks it was for acquiring what he knew prior to dumping his ass.I hope they keep a close watch on him.Spots on a dog never change color.Unless it is dog food imported from China!s/c on the last sentence only!

You got my vote. The sooner the better.

Alas, they have help from RINO’s too.

And there are string pullers above both.

There were at leaast 60 individuals who served as ground support people to the 9/11 terrorists who hijacked planes flown out of Dulles airport.

They disappeared on 9/11 and none of them have been seen since.

Where did they go?
