Bush has a knack for this: Rice was promoted to Secretary of State; Bremer, Tenet and Franks were each given the Medal of Freedom; 2 Army analysts who were wrong about what the aluminum tubes were for received job peformance awards.
Looking through my notes, I found another example:
McGovern has no doubt they could have been. He cites the FBI report of "all those Arab fellows training on aircraft but with no interest in learning how to land them." The report was rejected, unread, he says, by an FBI official, Spike Owen, who nonetheless "received a $20,000 cash award from the administration for his duties in safeguarding the American people."
