7. Was Clarke being kind to Tenet?
Or did he assume that tenet HAD A FREEPING CLUE (considering all of the WARNINGS the CIA analyst was giving to the pRez)?

6. He looked like he was going to be sick.
When he got the question he tried to bob and weave. Then he got penned in and realized he was going to have to answer the question. He really looked like he was going to be sick.

Then he answered it. He didn't talk to Bush in August. Unbelievable. Tomorrow's headline today.

10. I am not in a situation to remember.
I'm quoting Rumsfled, but I don't remember Bush* claiming that. Maybe he did. I do recall him claiming that he spoke to Tenet every day, though.

15. No, I don't think he said that.
Bush received the PDB in Texas. Press reports said that he was briefed by someone else other than Tenet.
