President Bush on CIA director George Tenet, upon learning of his resignation, June 3, 2004:
“He’s been a strong and able leader at the agency, and I will miss him. I told him I’m sorry he’s leaving. He’s done a superb job on behalf of the American people.”
President Bush on Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, upon learning that a number of people were calling for his firing, May 10, 2004:
“You are courageously leading our nation in the war against terror. You are doing a superb job. You are a strong Secretary of Defense and our nation owes you a debt of gratitude.”
3 replies on “And from his concession speech next fall, “John Kerry will make a superb president””
Time to look up “superb” in the dictionary – while he’s got it out, he may as well also look up “strong,” “able,” “courageously,” etc. etc.
It may be premature to suggest this, but Tenet may have a book in him, a la O’Neill / Clarke
Or a movie; “Fahrenheit What The Fuck!?!”
Absolutely………..I am dying to see Tenant
write his book and humiliate that lying weasel
in the White House
