Why did GWB let George Tenet go onto the news and publicly take the blame for the 'Mistake' of 'allowing' the African yellow-cake reference in the President's state of the Union speech...? A reference which has been vindicated in spades. I suspect we have a politically 'tone-deaf' president who just doesn't know when he is in trouble...and when he isn't.
Bush should be out there fighting in every speech backing up his claims about Saddam and WMDs and Al Queda connections. Cheney tries to do it on occasion. He has claimed that he has intelligence the 9-11 commission has never seen. So why not reveal it. The proof is there, apparently. Why doesn't Bush emphasize it?
