Senator
There...I said it. (Although, I imagine I've said it before). To disclaim though....I don't know that SHE'S a maroon, I just know that her teevee schtick is. It's no wonder Jon Stewart rendered her down to a quivering glob of goo, when she interviewed him last year. And for what it's worth...the SAME is true as to O'Reilly, Hannity, and Fox's bimbo stable.
So.....Tonight, she went on, and on, and on....about how our CIA is incompetent. It didn't "predict" 9/11 nor did it "predict" Crimea. But she gratuitously added...they do know our private data. Well...let's not forget the infamous and/or famous CIA Director George Tenet. Li'l George didn't just put all the blame for 9/11 on the CIA, he gave Tenet the "Medal of Freedom"!
So..what's this tell us about Tenet and his CIA? It tells us virtually nothing. The ONLY thing it illuminates, is the Bush Administration. The Director of the CIA serves at the behest of the president. The only things we and the world (and vice versa) know, are those things that our elected president wants us to know. And yeah.....I know that upsets a whole lotta Americans. They're entitled to their upset. But...."intelligence" and "transparency" are oxymoronic. We can have one or the other, but we can't have both.
So..Maddow yammers her silly case. Then, she spends a few minutes on Pooty-Poot making a worldwide jackass of himself, then she flips back to her silly case.
Tenet and the CIA were all over Iraq and their non-existent WMD. Li'l George just wanted to make a different case. Our current CIA was all over Crimea, but they left it to Pres. Obama to play this one out as he sees fit.
