We are now entering the spin cycle:
WASHINGTON, Aug. 25 - A long-awaited C.I.A. inspector general’s report on the agency’s performance before the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks includes detailed criticism of more than a dozen former and current agency officials, aiming its sharpest language at George J. Tenet, the former director, according to a former intelligence officer who was briefed on the findings and another government official who has seen the report.
Mr. Tenet is censured for failing to develop and carry out a strategic plan to take on Al Qaeda in the years before 2001, even after he wrote in a 1998 memo to intelligence agencies that “we are at war” with it, they said, speaking about the highly classified report on condition of anonymity.
That’s “Presidential Medal of Freedom winner George J. Tenet” if you please.
correct me if i’m wrong, but isn’t tenet the only one from this fiasco that was left over from the clinton administration
