    GEORGE TENET HATED TEH J00Z THAT’S WHY WE LOST IN IRAQ

    ALS0, CLINT0N!!!!!!

  3. If I killed a bottle of scotch, I’d be dead. Must not’ve been top stuff. How amiable of him to let himself go like that with the Saudis. Way to spill the beans, George!

  4. I’ve consumed more whisky in countries where it is illegal than countries that is legal. You actually have to watch out for fake bottles. But this being Bandar, he probably gets it pre-tested

    High school yearbook photos: so easy, even a caveman can do it.

  6. Serolf Divad says at 9:44 am, December 18th, 2008

    Tyler reports in a footnote that, when asked, Tenet initially denied staying at Prince Bandar’s palace, then denied that he had said anything in the pool. Then denied having said anything about ‘the Jews.’ Then denied having said anything about ‘the good ones’ just ‘the bad ones.’ Then denied even knowing what a Jew was. Then denied he’d just said that, pointing out that some of his best friends were mad, raving Likudnicks. Then denied ever having used a yarmulke as a frisbee. Then denied ever having used a yarmulke as a frisbee with his dog, though maybe he had with a friend. Then denied saying that if you want a friend in Washington get a dog. Then denied having denied saying that and pointed out that the dog had been quite gentle with the yarmulke. Then passed out and was extracted from the pool by a Saudi security detail before drowning.

    Tenet sez: Fuck all y’all, I got scoreboard (or at least something I can pawn later).

    :::badmouthing George’s unibrow:::

  9. Come here a minute says at 9:48 am, December 18th, 2008

    It won’t be delicious until he sticks his Medal of Freedom in his shoe and starts beating neocons over the head with it.

  10. bfstevie says at 9:48 am, December 18th, 2008

    But did he specifically say anything bad about Bill Kristol and, if not, why not?

    There should always be time to say bad things about Bill Kristol.

  11. AngryBlakGuy says at 9:48 am, December 18th, 2008

    …Joe Lieberman maybe?

  12. He probably also pissed in Bandar’s pool, to show that the US is still an honest broker of middle eastern relations.

  13. Also, because Ms. Life-Sized Campbell has made her exit, I will turn off my ad blocker, ’cause I know y’all need to eat and, more importantly, drink.

    Isn’t it some sort of a faux pas to be gargling top shelf scotch in your Saudi host’s pool? I mean, unless you provide the blondes of course!

  16. choinski says at 9:54 am, December 18th, 2008

    Then he got into a pissing contest and won a medal of Peedom.

  17. 2druk2phluq says at 9:55 am, December 18th, 2008

    Tenet got drunk. Professed love for one good looking camel. Gave uncomfortable details concerning the appearance of Bush’s penis. Tenet then vomited into the pool, but pretended it didn’t happen by splashing the noxious mix at the other guests. Before passing out he cried for his lost innocence.

  18. facehead says at 9:58 am, December 18th, 2008

    What will Obama do to resolve the Unibrow/Israeli conflict?

  19. Tenet drinks scotch?

    That just put me off Jameson’s permanently.

  20. actor212: Tenet drinks scotch?

    That just put me off Jameson’s permanently.

    Fear not. Jameson’s is Irish whiskey, not Scotch whiskey. Bottoms up.

  21. Oh no! The graven image of the Giant Campbell is gone. Who do I worship now? The back of Obama’s cartoon head or the green Santa?

  22. actor212: Don’t haet. It’s isn’t scotch’s fault that Tenet drinks it.

  23. Dan Perino says at 10:20 am, December 18th, 2008

    I saw this one on South Park. It was funnier then.

  24. dano: 4tehlulz: It’s like being in the same time zone as Tenet. Makes me hate the East Coast.

  25. Fear of a Black Reagan says at 10:41 am, December 18th, 2008

    Now I have to like George Tenet again? WTF?

  26. SayItWithWookies says at 10:48 am, December 18th, 2008

    Bad toady, George. Recriminations and regrets are for the weak. On the other hand, if you want to come clean, I’d love to interview you. I’ve got a brownie recipe that’ll have you giving the GPS coordinates of every torture prison from here to Alma Ata.

  27. I hope he was wearing his Presidential Medal of Freedom during his hottub Jew rant. “Oh you don’t like hearing the truth? I know shit man, I ran the CIA, I know all the conspiracies especially the Jew ones. LOOK AT MY MEDAL! Get me another scotch Bandar, Papa needs his Shalom hatin’ fuel.”

  28. BigBrainOnBrad says at 10:50 am, December 18th, 2008

    George used to have two eyebrows but he plucked the top one.

  29. snideinplainsight says at 10:57 am, December 18th, 2008

    maybe he can stick that Medal of Freedom in his mouth, like Beyonce (tho I don’t need to see him wiggling around). I’ve got my Boy Scout first aid skill award (not the merit badge) in my mouth right now!

  30. Cape Clod says at 11:01 am, December 18th, 2008

    Tenent also denied going out later in the evening on a ‘camel tipping’ jaunt.

  31. Heywood Floyd says at 11:04 am, December 18th, 2008

    I just renamed my band “Screaming About Jews”.

  32. shortsshortsshorts says at 11:05 am, December 18th, 2008

    Prince Bandar is the funniest ambassador ever. He was probably like “no no no they are not teh jew people” and then ran down to the bunker flailing his research around while beating his servants into the truth of the Bush administration, thus causing horrible war all over the place.

  33. finallyhappy says at 11:16 am, December 18th, 2008

    I will call my Mossad contacts- Tenet will be sorry he dissed my people

  34. Schmannity says at 11:20 am, December 18th, 2008

    This Scotch is a slam dunk!

  35. randomsausage says at 11:26 am, December 18th, 2008

    He should have known it’s nearly Hanukkah…and had a gin-and-tonica

  36. forgracie says at 11:36 am, December 18th, 2008

    Channeling Richard Nixon. BTW, Glenfiddich is how I got through the Bush years too.

  37. Miller: I wonder if he ever takes it off or if it’s like his bling for the ‘hood?

    I can just picture him now, sitting in a blow-up floatie, wearing a wife-beater and an old pair of gym shorts with holes in it, pair of boat shoes, plastic cup of scotch in his hand, and the MoF dangling off his neck, shining in the blazing Arabic sunshine, shouting “Bandarrrrrrr! My glass is empty, beeyatch!”

  38. Alex Trebeks Girl says at 11:43 am, December 18th, 2008

    Man these CIA guys always let themselves go. They always look like shit.

  39. AbeServer says at 11:52 am, December 18th, 2008

    Gosh…it is on the internet…it MUST be true.

    Except that every person who was there at the time says it is bullshit

    http://georgejtenet.com/TylerStatement.html

    CIA cannot be as evil as folks suggest…otherwise people like the author of this book…and the (undoubtedly georgeous) cheeto-eating people at Wonkette would be meeting unfortunate accidents — if you get what I am sayin’.

  40. Iggy Plop says at 12:12 pm, December 18th, 2008

    AbeServer: the CIA is that evil. it’s just that they’re also extremely incompetent.

  41. jesus reyes says at 12:32 pm, December 18th, 2008

    Truth serum

  42. HuddledMass says at 2:02 pm, December 18th, 2008

    Iggy Plop: That is correct - in my activist days I was pursued around campus by both the FBI and the local cops and I evaded them by going to my parents house for a few days. I mean, honestly. I had to turn myself in at my own trial so I could get tired with my fellow building-taker-overs. True story.

    We are all here yapping our disrespectful mouths *only* because of the incompetence of those in charge

  43. AbeServer: It’s written by a journalist trying to sensationalize an account to sell books, so it MUST be true.

    @IggyPlop: the CIA is evil to the extent that policymakers are evil. The CIA is a loaded gun, but after it got eunuched in the 1970s, policymakers pull the trigger, not the spies.

    The CIA is occasionally incompetent, but overall they do a good job.

  44. dano: Actually, it’s Irish “whiskey” vs. Scottish “whisky.”

    Not that the former is good for anything other than removing the enamel from what’s left of your teeth.

    Slante!

  45. Tenet is probably the kind of Dork that takes Michael Jackson’s book with him to shop in duty free. I bet he was farting in the pool and watching the bubbles come up, saying about Rumsfield “he loves me, he loves me not” as each one burst the surface and perfumed the desert air.

  46. Iggy Plop says at 12:39 pm, December 19th, 2008

    Frood: Generally do a good job? I can’t think of one. Ever.
