Pretty much everyone is distancing themselves from Bush and his cabal, including Republicans, because of the neverending disaster in Iraq. But George Tenet is making a big show of new-found oppostion to the war, which is interesting given his intelligence failures are part of what got the United States in multiple Middle Eastern conflicts to begin with. Christopher Hitchens lends his acidic pen to a Tenet takedown via Slate.
Bush at War, what does that mean really, after all he spends all his time locked away in the White House hoping that no one sees that he is there. As for George Tenet I would never have know about the guy unless you had mentioned the guy. US politics in a nightmare.
You mean Bush at War, the trifecta of Bob Woodward books? Or the fact that he's isolated politically, just like Johnson and Nixon were before him. Tenet was head of the CIA, and won the Medal of Freedom, which at the time I thought was a little ridiculous, given that he never caught wind of 9/11 until it was too late and then let the neo-cons stovepipe data to push their war. And then to attack the administration on top of that (even though they deserve it) seems a little disingenuous.
