The CIA, whose new building is named for the father of the President, decides after weeks of mounting bad press, to take on the responsibility for allowing Bush to use false evidence to go to war. The CIA's director, George Tenet, finally had to step in and take a bullet for his boss because, well, that's what they do for the Bushies. Bush the First pardoned all the CIA guys involved with Iran/Contra (and now they are working for Bush II in his administration). It is still on the records as being the top CIA officials charged and convicted of criminal activities in U.S. history. Bush I claimed he was "out of the loop" on everything going on with the CIA-run Iran/Contra scandal. Now, let's think about that a second and what we know about Bush I. He was a CIA agent for years before becoming head of the agency. Even today he receives more DAILY CIA briefings (three) than any other president in history. The Iran/Contra operation was a major CIA operation operating out of the White House. And yet, nobody in the CIA told Poppy what was going on. Oh, don't you know that some wanted so badly to spill the beans over martinis to their old boss about this hot gun/money running deal they had going with former Iranian enemies and Columbian coke dealers fighting communisim but jeez, he was the Vice President at the time and they just couldn't compromise telling him because, well, Reagan was so on top of it all anyway...

So is Bush finally going to fire Tenet over this disgraceful lack of professional behavior (tacked on to the 9/11 screw-ups to be revealed in an upcoming report) and which left poor ol' Bush II "out of the loop" on this serious matter which led to his sending Americans to their death in needless war?

What do you think? Does anyone believe this horse$#@*?
