… of accountability in the White House as Tenet resigns. Oh, wait… accountability? nope, he just resigned for “personal reasons…” The link above goes to Josh Marshall’s latest on Tenet. More on this as I get time, but since I haven’t done shite since this morning (stupid home inspections), back to work with me.
Update: favorite line in the Marshall post:
Having said all that, beside the possibility that the White House’s favored Iraqi exile was an Iranian agent, that the spy chief just got canned, that the OSD is wired to polygraphs, and that the president has had to retain outside counsel in the investigation into which members of his staff burned one of the country’s own spies, I’d say the place is being run like a pretty well-oiled machine.
And Mr. Marshall isn’t usually so sarcastic.
