"Ending two years of silence on his role in the Iraq war, former CIA
Director George J. Tenet is using a new book and a barrage of upcoming
television appearances to accuse the White House of making him a scapegoat
and of ignoring early CIA warnings that Iraq was sinking into chaos.

In a taped interview scheduled to air Sunday on CBS, Tenet said President
Bush had made up his mind to invade Iraq long before the CIA director made
his infamous Oval Office remark that it was a "slam-dunk" case
that Saddam Hussein's government had banned weapons.

Tenet was even more forceful in his criticism of Vice President Dick Cheney
and Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, saying that the two had destroyed
his reputation by repeatedly using the "slam-dunk" line to pin
blame on him for the decision to go to war.

"It's the most despicable thing that ever happened to me," Tenet
said in the "60 Minutes" interview, according to an excerpt CBS
released Thursday."


Gee how unlike this Administration to partially leak things so as to create
a false impression.
