Nightline on Tenet.....let the whitewash flow over us starting at 12:04 E

[buycitgo]

just wait

what a joke this has become already

Tenet is guilty of EVERYTHING....911/WMDs/psoriasis/West Nile

just watch

laying the foundation for all those reports putting it all at CIA's doorstep

EDIT at midnight:

starting momentarily...news over now


fricking HOCKEY!!

fricking hoseheads

this better NOT be a total whitewash

[PROGRESSIVE1]

1. Where are your sources?

[buycitgo]

7. sources for what?

I watched/listened to a pound of shows today/tonight, and they're ALL lining up against CIA/Tenet

it's ridiculous

with Turner's exception, I haven't seen anything to disabuse myself of that proposition

feel free to tell me you've seen/heard/read mainstream dissent

I'll be ecstatic to be proven wrong

earlier euphoria has subsided into normal pessimism

breaking dam seems to be getting shoveled back up by the media hoes

[buycitgo]

2. Richard Clarke may be on, according to earlier DU prediction

hope so......aren't he and Wilson pals?

just starting to read Clarke's book

whoever here said the first chapter is compelling was understating the case

reads better than any thriller I can think of....mainly cause it's fricking REAL

[Renew Deal]

4. I said that.

I am not sure if others did. The first chapter is amazing.

[buycitgo]

8. really......going to try to read lots of it tomorrow

he's not that facile a writer, but how on earth could one ask for more gutwrenching subject matter

only a simp like dumbo could botch that one up

one thing.....reminds me....he paints a picture of chimpo wanting to get back to DC ASAP

disappointing to read that part....the only downer so far

[Media_Lies_Daily]

3. Whatever you say.

[buycitgo]

5. what?

did you see Pincus and Isikoff on Aaron Brown?

sounded like they were reading the junta's defense brief

completely blamed it on Tenet/CIA

no mention of end use/interpretation

OR the FACT that Tenet TOLD them not to put it in the October speech, but that Condi "FORGOT" about that when it came time for SOTU

can you please explain your derision here?

you don't think the media aren't behind the admin on this?

come ON?

[teryang]

6. Kind of like the wrong murders being pinned

...to a mass murderer.

[buycitgo]

16. excellent analogy.......on at least two levels

just hope they get NAILED for something.....badly enough to get them the FFFFFFFFFFF outta here

[buycitgo]

9. it's fifteen minutes past the time it's due on here, and the news is

still on in Chicago

what's up?

long running ABC trash, or what?

anybody seeing it yet?

[Atman]

11. Still news in CT

eom

[southlandshari]

12. hockey game ran late

so local news started late - at least that's what I was told when I called the ABC affiliate in Columbus, GA. I was in a pathetic state of panic when the news was still dragging out at 10:45 - kind of like a junkie in the early, nasty phase of withdrawal. I didn't realize how hooked I was on Nightline until tonight!

[buycitgo]

14. jesus.....fricking hockey......another WHITEWASH!!!!

they did it on PURPOSE, so there'd be a NEGATIVE leadin!

taking colander off head now

[blackmoonlillith]

10. Of course they're going to try to pin

all of this on Tenet and the CIA, but do you really think the CIA is going to stand for it? Look for more and more leaks. It's obvious now that the administration and the CIA are at war with one another. The CIA will win.

[buycitgo]

13. they sure are, so far

Isikof/Pincus said Tenet didn't even ATTEMPT to defend himself in front of that Senate inquiry into CIA failures

didn't even TRY!

WTF is up with THAT?

I hope I'm wrong, but would you be surprised?

[blackmoonlillith]

15. The question is...

will the American public buy the whitewash. Most people are upset that Iraq is a cluster fuck, no wmd have been found, and the economy sucks. I also don't think that other CIA agents are going to put up with this shit. Tenet maybe... Look for more and more leaks.

[buycitgo]

18. point is.....will this be a major move toward critical mass accumulating

how many more stories like this will it TAKE before the average news consumer WAKES THE FUCK UP?????????????????????

and humpty monkey takes the big fall?

[scarletwoman]

19. Of course the American people will buy the whitewash.

"It's all the CIA's fault." That'll satisfy just about everyone who isn't a hardcore political junkie.

Once again, all the sh*t that SHOULD land right in the laps of the bushies, is being deflected by the lapdog mainstream media to the scapegoat at hand.

How many Americans are aware of the OSP, and their role in OVERRIDING the CIA on the Iraq issue? I bet it's less than 5%.

The whitewash keeps it simple, and that's all most people want.

sw

[buycitgo]

21. but WAIT!!!!!! David Wise just mentioned a "mini-CIA" set up

at the Pentagon

just a brief mention....didn't say OSP, but it was there for a flickering moment

WHERE's Karen Kwiatkowski?

why isn't she EVER on?

can you imagine what that would be like


speaking of which.....wonder if she has anything to say about this yet

[scarletwoman]

22. Yeah, I caught that!

Had to quick edit my post. ;-)

Waiting for the damn commercials to end...

Heeeeeere's Dick...

sw

[buycitgo]

24. did you notice his left pant cuff is folded over?

message that he's being held hostage?

can do this stuff cause I'm taping

[scarletwoman]

28. Huh? Whose pant cuff?

Nothing but talking heads on Nightline, no pants to be seen.

sw

[buycitgo]

30. clarke's

[buycitgo]

17. Clarke is ON!!!! not buying the reason for resignation

so the truth will get at least some airing

good

[mmonk]

20. All a cover for the admin's

neocon members and the shadow gov "intelligence agency", the Office of Special Plans.

[buycitgo]

23. clarke on now

talking about major terror attack happening while CIA head is out

[buycitgo]

25. says Tenet wanted to quit a year ago, but couldn't due to

circumstances

BUT.....that they'll be blaming as much as they can on him

RC: he tried to hard too protect the institution

Clarke out

coming up: two senate intelligence hoes

[kiahzero]

27. Why are they hoes for being on Senate Intelligence?

The House and Senate Intelligence Committees are some of the only oversight We The People have over the CIA.

[buycitgo]

29. glad you axed

so far, Levin and Hagel are toeing the line.

disapppointed in Levin, who many thought would use the CIA as his conduit to really go after the junta

he's now blaming Tenet for tailoring intel to fit what he thought junta wanted to hear

what BULLSHIT....it begins there, but goes MUCH further!

not word one from Levin about OSP

HO

HO

HO

intel ho

lost much respect for Levin right there

do they have somebody from EVERYONE's family held hostage?

or what?

will someone comment on this segment, please?

is it me?

[scarletwoman]

34. VERY disappointed in Levin!

Letting the bushies skate, blame it all on Tenet. Absolutely disgusting!

But it gets WORSE! He's still pushing that god-awful recommendation that a whole new domestic super-intelligence agency be created. Both Tenet and FBI Mueller strongly opposed it -- well, now there's ONE down...

:grr:

sw

[buycitgo]

35. Levin, douchebag for Tom Sawyer.....or was it Huck Finn

[Stephanie]

26. Clarke: Watch out to see whether unnamed WH officials say Tenet was pushed

If they do, as he suspects they will, then we will know

Spend time with family means he was fired

Before Tenet we had one CIA Dir. per year

Protecting the Institution

Failed to criticize the Institution

Sometimes boss has to be critical in order to improve.

all very cryptic, to me...

[buycitgo]

31. SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSUCKED!!!!!!!

what a waste of time that was........

unless, of course, you're the Bush Family Evil Empire

nice foundation laid

you could hide Jimmy Hoffa under that slab of hoyo

[buycitgo]

33. oops....forgot about this.........

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=104x1716343

good, important caveat ending show

[Stephanie]

32. Sally Quinn was pretty interesting

Endorses speculation about threat to his family, although she implies that the threat is from terrorists.

Says that he was tired of taking the fall for Bushes.

Says that career CIA take note, and that it is a mistake for admin to be disparaging Tenet now - they will regret it.

[scarletwoman]

36. VEEEERRRRY interesting!

Actually made me feel a little better. Pissing off the CIA? Bring em on!

sw

[buycitgo]

37. yeah, but......how long you been hearing that?

WHEN are they going to raise their fearsome heads?

everybody keeps saying, to the point of annoyance, that they're going to GET these foul swine someday

well.....WHEN?

they remind me of the Achordate Party

starting to remind me of the Kerry campaign

when are THEY going to start running some heinously effective negative ads, like the nazis are doing?
