I think the CIA by it's very nature is a fairly creepy organization regardless of the administration. They've done a very bad job of intelligence gathering since before the fall of the Soviet Union. No one could blame even this administration with not trusting the qaulity of the info they were getting from the CIA. The problem is, that wasn't what W. and Cabal did wrong. They predetermined what the intelligence would be and mean. When the CIA told them "Bin Laden Determined to attack inside united states" that was crappy intel. When Tennet told them that WMD was a 'slam dunk', that was great intel.

If W and the Neocons are not to blame for the failures of the occupation, then someone else needs to be. There's been speculation for months now that either Tennet or Rumsfeld was going to have to fall on their sword. The president wouldn't dump Rummy if he bit the head of an elederly blind nun on CSPAN.
