Here's what is going to happen with the WMD scandal

Ok, Tenet just tried to pull a fast one by taking responsibility for the error and falling on his sword.

Oh no you don't. Exactly when did the CIA know this intelligence was fake? Exactly when did the CIA pass this information along to the Bush Administration? Was it the next day after the SOTU because Rumsfeld repeated that information the next day? Was it before Powell went to the UN? Because he didn't use that information during his speech. Why didn't you bother to release a statement debunking the Niger story when you learned it was a mistake?

And while I'm at it, was there other evidence you had that now turns out to be either false or probably untrue? Where are the 1000's of tons of WMD? What does this say for intelligence overall? Doesn't this destroy the whole idea of pre-emptive warfare? Did the Bush Administration ever question anything you said? When? Who?

OK, HERE'S THE DEAL. THERE WILL BE A PUBLIC INVESTIGATION AND TENET WON'T BE THE ONLY ONE TESTIFYING FROM THE CIA. AND ALL OF THESE QUESTIONS, AND MORE, WILL BE ASKED.

DRIP, DRIP, DRIP, DRIP
