Oath and law?

[timhunter at juno.com]

In this type of situation government lawyers have plenty of tricks up
their sleeve.  Sometimes they will say that thus and such may not
actually have occurred (like taking an oath) but the employee "virtually"
took the oath by reason of accepting the paycheck, signing agreements,
etc.  The CIA director will say whatever he is told to say.

George Tenet is a Clinton appointee and a creature of Capitol Hill.  He
is obviously capable of selling most brands of snake-oil on the market
and lapping up as much moonshine as is necessary to play the fool.  This
regime lacks intellectual competence, responsibility, and coherence.
