George Tenet resigns

No need to wait for the next Bush blunder, it's here: Bush has selected someone outside his circle of cronies to take the fall for recent problems. After a meeting last night with Bush, CIA director George Tenet has resigned. But since this admin can never just admit a mistake, it's for "personal reasons." That's how a team led by a chronic liar does things: they want all the benefits of a PR move and none of the accountability. Although they refuse to connect this development to recent scandals, there are plenty to choose from:

- The continued failure of the FBI and CIA to work together.
- The CIA supplying the WMD pretext/lie for the war Bush wanted
- The emerging Chalabi Iran leak scandal
- The scummy Karl Rove leak that Joe Wilsons wife is a CIA agent
- The Abu Ghraib prison torture scandal
- 9/11 intelligence failures. The WMD were not a "slam dunk" as he insisted.

Within the week you can depend on GOP stooges to argue "What do you mean this admin has done nothing about (Scandal X)... George Tenet resigned!"

You can read about the weird way Bush announced it here. Nothing makes me happier than their continued ineptitude. This week should be a disaster for Bush in Europe.
5 months left in this amoral, idiotic presidency.
