Never, after all, has an administration reached for its dictionaries more regularly to redefine reality to its own benefit; and yet, somehow, almost six years after the 9/11 attacks, we find ourselves in a world in which reality, sometimes absurdly, sometimes grimly beyond comprehension, outraces any words the Bush administration may propose for it

In a 1939 radio address, Franklin Roosevelt declared, "Repetition does not transform a lie into a truth." When it comes to Iraq, Hillary Clinton is doing everything in her power to prove him wrong -- repeatedly trying to rewrite history and belatedly catch up with public opinion against the war.

His anticipated book written; now it's Professor Tenet's turn to make the pilgrimage route in the promotion of his narrative of events in hope, one guesses, that with a little luck, and a small measure of persuasion, he might enhance not only his pocketbook but also his foggy image with the American public.
How many lies is George Tenet allowed to tell on TV before he immolates the last shred of credibility? Judging by his latest sad performance on Meet the Press I would say his time is up. Tenet insisted to Tim Russert that he was crystal clear in debunking the assumption that Al Qaeda and Iraq were in cahoots
