"I'm not going to talk about a state sponsor," Tenet assured them. "It's good that we don't," said Cheney, "because we're not ready to do anything about it."

Wasn't the US the "State Sponsor" in the anthrax attacks?

Let me clarify. It was state sponsored in the sense that Ames was isolated and grown in the US and the US program provide sponsorship for developing the know how to weaponize the material. However, the state didn't sponsor (by giving orders) the one or two US scientists who did the mailings.
