Journal illumin8's Journal: George Tenet caught in a(nother) lie

My first Journal entry! Anyway, I've been listening to Air America today and they've been talking about how George Tenet said he never talked to George Bush the entire month of August (in front of the 9/11 commission). He said Bush was in Crawford, TX, and they never met the entire month. This allows Bush "plausible deniability" about whether he knew the attacks were going to happen or not.

Anyway, someone called in and they found a document on the Whitehouse website (dated Aug. 25th, 2001) that proves he was lying:

Whitehouse Press Release

Load the page and do a Find on the word "tenet", and you'll see this:

The CIA briefings, I have on our porch, the end of our porch looking out over the lake. When Tenet came up, that's where we visited, out there.

You know, everybody wants to see the ranch, which I'm proud to show it off. So George Tenet and I -- yesterday, we piled in the new nominees for the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs, the Vice Chairman and their wives and went right up the canyon.

So not only did Bush meet with Tenet on August 24th, they also went over the CIA briefings with him. The CIA briefing talking about Zacharias Moussaui (sp?) which Bush said he never saw was dated August 23rd, but this seems to totally contradict that.
