Default Tenet Resigns

With his resignation, do you think we are more safe or less safe?

Depends on the choice of his replacement. Scary thought that Bush could place some christian fanatic in this position... Oy Veh!

Safety is an illusion. It really doesn't matter whether the illusion is stronger or weaker

No difference. It is the system that works (or doesn't work), not any one individual.

I do think it's funny that the democrats have been calling for his resignation for the past several months (especially Kerry) and now they deride Bush for Tenet's departure saying that he was "forced out" and that Bush was just passing the blame. Damned if you do, damned if you don't.
