Pelosi Statement on CIA Director Tenet's Resignation

Washington, D.C. -- House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi, a 10-year veteran of the Intelligence Committee, released the following statement today on the resignation of Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) Director George Tenet:

"George Tenet is a valued public servant who has made many significant contributions to the work of the intelligence community, but apparently he believes it is time for a change in leadership.

"There certainly were intelligence failures in the Iraq operation, particularly in the months preceding the invasion. There have been many other failures as well; I do not believe his resignation should be the only response to those failures."
