Rice is now saying she doesn't recall the meeting mentioned in the book. Tenet and Black refuse to comment.

Condi Rice, you're super memory-licious.

If it worked for Hillary "I can't recall" then it can work for Condi.

Fair's fair.

I got the impression that she (her spokesperson) was acknowledging a meeting occurred, but that her (Rice's) current memory of what occurred during the meeting is different than that presented by Woodward.

Quote:

Since the release of the book, “State of Denial,” the White House and Ms. Rice have disputed major elements of Mr. Woodward’s account. Ms. Rice has said through spokesmen that there had been no such exchange in a private meeting with Mr. Tenet and that he had expressed none of the frustration attributed to him in Mr. Woodward’s book.

“It really didn’t match Secretary Rice’s recollection of the meeting at all,” said Dan Bartlett, counselor to President Bush, in an interview on “Face the Nation” on CBS. “It kind of left us scratching our heads because we don’t believe that’s an accurate account.”
