Oh, boy. You're still at it.
#1. There is NO evidence that Tenet has ever been or plans to be disloyal to the president.
#2. Some analyst was on CNN (I don't watch that channel often enough to remember the guy's name but I've seen him before speaking about the WOT specifically - Peter something?). Anyway, said analyst said that Tenet is so deeply loyal that there is no way he just popped in on the president last night and told him this. He likely has had ongoing discussions with the president.
#3. You ask why we are supposed to instantly believe he is loyal. You have that backward. He has PROVEN repeatedly his loyalty in sworn testimony and in his speeches and among friends and insiders he is KNOWN to think incredibly highly of the president. Let me ask you - why do you instantly believe he will be disloyal to the president?
#4. You are one of the most consistently negative Freepers I've seen in a LOOOOONG time.
Limbaugh just said that Tenet has planned along to resign, that he was just waiting till after the election to do it. That there really are personal reasons involved. Okay, but why leave now? Why chum the waters? If he's got a non-job related reason I hope he comes out with it, just to clear the air.
Government and politics is a dirty business - add money and ego to the mix - anything can happen going forward.
Uh, have you never wondered why we were blind-sided by 9-11...when you look at the FACT that George Tenet and Richard Clark NEVER once briefed GWB or Condoleeza Rice or Colin Powell about Al Queda's "Operation Bojinka"? The pubbies were either being set up...or it was lamentable incompetence on Tenet's and Clark's part. Either way...not good.
