Was Tenet our J. Edgar Hoover
Using J's blackmail maneuver?
Why else would they keep him on?
Otherwise he's soon long gone.

Tells them what they want to hear
Or gets thrown out on his ear.
Doesn't tell us all he knows.
When we learn? Well out he goes.

No spilled beans, so our reward?
Ineptitutde we can't afford.
But to W? "Superb!"
Now there's a thought sure to disturb.
