Because the investigation involves the adminstration; Gonzales can't represent him personally.

Will his ego get into the way? Time will tell. There will be pressure for him to go negative.

He hasn't actually retained him, has he?

Stop trying to turn this into a personal flamewar please.

I'm just echoing comments made by other posters, and my own reflections after having observed your continued negativity here.

without a doubt, I think this will lead to a big boost for Bush in the polls. People like to see new blood and have been calling for Tenet to get fired. Some saying that Bush was too loyal. There is only one fact, and that is this is extremely positive news for Bush and will be even more postive when a replaement is announced.

It's uncalled for trolling to start a fight. No thanks.

I was just thinking the same thing.

I'm glad I don't know them in real life! Imagine all that pent up rage being directed at family members!

He helped save the Nicaraguan freedom fighters(I'm sure this will anger some paranoid anti-CIA Christic nuts),
he pissed off the entire Democratic Party, He's a Conservative Republican.

Either him James Woolsey.

The Bolshies and Arab funded jackasses at State and in the JACKASS party will piss their pants.

I think Rudy has better qualifications than Miller, especially from his experience as a U.S. Attorney, and his experience in handling a big city government.

At least I'm not insulting people and picking fights on a web forum.

I'm just commenting on the situation and you guys come in and attack attack attack.

Lame. Talk about the pent up rage.

I heard Bush this morning, in answer to a reporter's question, that he had urged all of his adm. to cooperate in the investigation and that he would also, had contacted a lawyer for advise in case he would need one.

"Unlike many freepers, I'd be astounded to see Tenet speak out badly about the president."

I agree.

But when Dan Rather et al gets on the news tonight and talks about "intelligence failures within the Bush administration led to the resignation of the CIA director this morning".

Yes, that is the real negativity of this story, not the resignation itself. I expect that the "Tenet was the fall guy [for Bush intelligence failures]" theme [already started by Schumer] will become dominant.

sometimes being paranoid and pessimistic is a good thing. its improves the ability to look further down the road and predict future trouble spots. being overly optimistic isn't good either.

so it's a balance. you and Peach and Howlin can be the optimists, let me be a pessimist on this one.

I'm not a pessimist on every issue - I was one of the first people to say the media was overplaying the prison "torture" scandal, and I have always been one to say the Iraq war was going alot better then reported.

I see - as usual - that a number of barroom brawls have broken out in The Right-Wing Saloon (FR). And liberals say that all conservatives think alike! lol

What's FR without doctrinal warfare?

You expected to find a room full of card-playing dogs, perhaps?

Be Seeing You,

Chris
