Bob Woodward further exposed: Tenet's "Slam Dunk" revisited.
by libby
...the conversation happened in late December 2002.
What does this mean with respect to Booby's attempt to help the WH stage manage the CIA's culpability in deceiving dear leader?
In other words, after Big Dick Cheney gave a speech in August saying that "we now know that Saddam has resumed his efforts to acquire nuclear weapons." After the famed WHIG "product rollout" in September, with Condoleezza Rice talking about smoking guns and mushroom clouds. After Dubya gave a speech in Cincinnati in October saying that Saddam Hussein " could have a nuclear weapon in less than a year."
Oh, and after Congress has already surrendered voted to authorize the use of force, and the troop buildup in Kuwait was already in the works.
In other words, Tenet supposedly "convinced" Dubya and his crew long after everything had already been decided. And Woodward wrote it up
with a straight face.
