No problem.

I just can't figure out why the President seems to have such faith in George Tenet when that faith seems to be unwarranted.

IIRC there is a connection from his dad's days back at the Agency, there may be a loyalty angle to it. And as pure speculation, see my Post#30 on that thread.

I agree with you that the probable answer as to why GWB hasdn't dumped Tenet is loyalty — an admirable quality, but misplaced in this instance, in my opinion. There are some striking parallels between GWB and RWR, including their inherent decency, and their loyalty to and trust in their staffs.
