George Tenet Cashes in on the Iraq War
by Brent Budowsky | Apr 20 2007


Get ready for the great George Tenet book tour, following the highly paid George Tenet talk-for-pay tour. Presumably, when he milks his failures on the Iraq war for whatever it's worth, he just might wear his Presidential Medal of Freedom, given by George Bush for a job well done.

I hope George Tenet discloses, or some media reporter will report, exactly how much dough he has pocketed in the aftermath of his shameful conduct surrounding Iraq.

You might remember Tenet. He was the star sitting behind Colin Powell when Powell was using his moral and political crediblity to pound the table for the United Nations to get behind the Iraq war.

When the dirt was dished about the phony intelligence, there was George Tenet.

When the decent opinion of humanity needed someone to show a profile in courage, there was George Tenet, slam-dunking the case for war.

When the national interest of America and the lives and safety of the troops demanded someone speaking truth to power, there was Tenet again, giving talk for pay, presumably sharing the wisdom and judgment he showed in the march to war.

When it should have been accountability time, with responsibility accepted for failure, there he was again, beaming with pride when the Decider gave his flunkie the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
