Tenet: ‘I Will Never Give That Medal Back’

[IChing]

Last night on Larry King Live, Tenet obstinately rejected the call to return the medal:

"I would never give thought to giving back the Medal of Freedom. … I accepted the award on their behalf and I will never give that medal back."

1. Tenet: "I Sold My Soul To The Neo-Cons..."

"...And All I Got Was This Shiny Medal"

2. Whose behalf?

All the people he murdered on 9/11?

5. He implies the people at the CIA

This guy has no shame.

3. More eduring prizes can be fished from a Crackerback Jox . . .

or at least you used to be able to.

I guess everything's been devalued (including the Medal of Freedom) since George came to town.

4. Sounds like he never takes his little medal off doesn't it? n/t

6. Tenet a la Sally Field

"I won't give back this medal because, you like me. You really like me."

7. I have previously posted that whenever I see George my gaydar

goes off. Last night I was speaking to my oldest friend (a gay man) about how I see George. He agrees with my observation. When I commented on the Medal my friend snapped back - He won't give back the jewelery unless they offer him a string of real pearls.

8. "..on their behalf" The torturers, the assassins, the murderers?

Sort of like Tony Soprano getting the CEO of the Year award.

9. Good. "That Medal" has become a badge of shame

If you consider who has received it under Smirky

Its like getting a case of herpes.
