Seems to me like tenet is holding something back.
It seems like tenet WANTS to say something, but is afraid to say it. Does anyone else get this feeling?

It's like he's at the water's edge, but won't dive in, like there's something he really wants to reveal, but stops short of actually revealing it.

In the meantime, we can only imagine.

1. if that is true, then i think even less of him
i'm already disgusted by him. i don't see him as any hero. why didn't he speak up much earlier ? why did he accept that medal from the lyiing fucking chimpanzee ?

he needs to just come out and tell the truth for it's own sake. it's not about whether he will be viewed as a hero or anything because he never will.

didn't John Dean go to prison ? i don't see Tenet having done that.

2. He seems awfully angry, I wonder why.
He acts like he's been terribly wronged, but it looks like he's in it up to his neck.

6. so it is all about him
just like that other incompetent Brownie. they only get upset whenever they personally are hurt in some way. they don't care for all those who are hurt by the lies of the administration.

7. They've been shafted, did they really think the bush family would defend them?
I'm always a bit amazed at their sudden wave of integrity.

12. Dean was sentenced, but turned prosecution witness.
Wikipedia:
Dean pled guilty to obstruction of justice before Watergate trial judge John Sirica on November 30, 1973. He admitted supervising payments of "hush money" to the Watergate burglars, notably E. Howard Hunt, and revealed the existence of Nixon's enemies list. On August 2, 1974, Sirica handed down a sentence of one to four years in a minimum-security prison. However, when Dean surrendered himself as scheduled on September 3, he was diverted to the custody of U.S. Marshals and kept instead at Fort Holabird (near Baltimore, Maryland) in a special "safe house" holding facility primarily used for witnesses against the Mafia. He spent his days in the offices of the Watergate Special Prosecutor and testifying in the trial of Watergate conspirators Mitchell, Haldeman, Ehrlichman, Robert Mardian, and Kenneth Parkinson, which concluded on January 1, 1975. Dean's lawyer moved to have his sentence reduced, and on January 8, Sirica granted the motion, adjusting Dean's sentence to time served.

4. He just struck me as being
arrogant, obnoxious, and defensive. I hope he chokes on his medal of freedom.

5. I'm watching this bastard right now on C&L.
I hope he freaking has to pay his advance on his book back because it loses money. "We don't torture", my tush. Thinks he's living in a freaking movie and writing the script as he goes.

14. Oh, he's holding back... but he doesn't want to say it
Anybody ever die in the interrogation program?
No (silence, then Tenet gulps water)
You're sure of that?
Yeah. In this program you and I are talking about? No.


So... in which program DID people die during interrogation?!
