At the very least, the Dems/NYTimes should have waited for these Congressional hearings to finish up before calling for a resignation. Calling for Rumsfeld to resign before he even testified and before all the facts are on the table smacks of political opportunism.
The military guy who wrote the report is testifying today and says there is likely a CIA role. Since the torture/abuse was ostensibly for the purposes of intelligence gathering, it seems probable. Should we be calling for William Tenet to resign? Putting aside all the boring Clinton vs. Bush rhetoric, what single individual has presided over more terrorist attacks and intelligence screwups than Tenet?
African embassy bombings, USS Cole, 9/11, WMD, torture, etc...all on Tenet's watch.
