WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Democratic Sen. Edward Kennedy called on Friday for CIA Director George Tenet to state plainly whether he believed the White House altered or misused intelligence to justify the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq.
The veteran Massachusetts lawmaker said Tenet also must explain "why he waited until last month -- nearly a year after the war started -- to set the record straight" that the intelligence did not indicate Iraq posed the immediate threat depicted by the Bush administration.

This old, fat bastard gets around. Tonight on FOX they also showed him at a Press Conference screaming for a Special Prosecutor in the Judiciary Committee Files case.
Too bad we can't have some Republicans to be so feisty and in-yo-face.....but then again the Pubbies are in the minority in the Senate and the House and can't do too much except get along, right?

Just give him a case of booze and he'll be quiet for at least a couple of hours.
Then again the way he pours in down his throat maybe a lot less.
