Well, it was much longer than I thought it would take but then, with no apparent warning CIA Director George Tenet resigns.
Reference Washington Post,
BBC, or
New York Times who reports Tenet cited "personal reasons":
The official announcement was unconvincing to a former C.I.A. chief, Stansfield Turner, who held the post under President Jimmy Carter.
Mr. Turner said the resignation is "too significant a move at too important a time" to be inspired by nothing more than personal considerations.
"I think he's being pushed out," Mr. Turner said in an interview on CNN. "The president feels he has to have someone to blame."
