The Truth

... is frequently not an adequate defense. From the Huffington Post:

A servant appeared with a bottle. Tenet knocked back some of the scotch. Then some more. They watched with concern. He drained half the bottle in a few minutes.


"They're setting me up. The bastards are setting me up," Tenet said, but "I am not going to take the hit."

...

"According to one witness, he mocked the neoconservatives in the Bush administration and their alignment with the right wing of Israel's political establishment, referring to them with exasperation as, "the Jews."

I suspect that the head of the CIA had better intelligence about the actions of Wolfowitz, Perle, Feith, Abrams and their allies in the press than he did about Saddam's WMDs.
