Just breaking on Fox...

No details, but the agent was caught dead to rights leaking....

Update: CIA Officer Fired for Leaking Classified Info to Media

WASHINGTON — A CIA officer has been relieved of his duty after being caught leaking classified information to the media.

CIA officials will not reveal the officer's name, assignment, or the information that was leaked. The firing is a highly unusual move, although there has been an ongoing investigation into leaks in the CIA.

One official called this a "damaging leak" that deals with operational information and said the fired officer "knowingly and willfully" leaked the information to the media and "was caught."

Thank you!!

OT----I saw a thing on Fox News today...that was about Kerry "celebrating" his 35th anniversary of appearing before the Senate committee and telling THEM to cut and run from Vietnam...

He just doesn't get it, does he? He is celebrating something that a HUGH percentage of Americans despise him for....LOL

Roll Call’s Mary Jacoby reported on April 21, 1994: “Murtha, as chairman of the Appropriations defense subcommittee, plays a major role in establishing the earmarks Brown opposes by allowing defense research and development accounts to fund civilian projects.

Another fine example of the left screwing our military, Ollie.

And I just finishing flaming that bi+ch Dana Priest for the same freaken thing.

Kerry is probably playing up to Democrat primary voters - or moonbats. They seem to love this kind of stuff.

btw: Run Kerry Run

I can only hope that this McCarthy is trashed to the same extent the other one was. In her case it's warranted.

Kerry lives in his own little bubble and thinks he is important

He is nothing but a puppet for the far left .. just like Bill is a puppet for Hellary

Well .. I've ignored my family all day .. so I best go pay attention to them and get ready for church later

I'm sure I'll have 1000 posts to read when I get back *L*

FReepers Rock!

They started with gas prices and then gave a synopsis of about 10 more stories including a report on iguanas.

"iguanas" --- bummer....... Mary McCarthy is a chameleon. Close.

I am going to watch the Sunday shows tomorrow for only ONE reason, and this is to find out who/if ANY of the hosts talk about this...and ask their guests about this.

Fox Sunday show has on Jane Harman who is on the House Intelligence Committee..ranking member...so, I think Chris Wallace should as her what SHE knows/and when she knew it, about Mary McCarthy..and any OTHER CIA leaks that could be "suspicious"....

"Hey everybody - check out Strata-sphere - he has Larry Johnson ADMITTING that Mary McCarthy was his BOSS at CIA!!!"

I was just doing some research on Larry and others.

Here are some tidbits on Larry:

From 1985 through September 1989 Mr. Johnson worked for the Central Intelligence Agency. During his distinguished career, he received training in paramilitary operations, worked in the Directorate of Operations, served in the CIA’s Operation’s Center, and established himself as a prolific analyst in the Directorate of Intelligence. In his final year with the CIA he received two Exceptional Performance Awards.

From 1989 until October 1993, Larry Johnson served as a Deputy Director in the U.S. State Department’s Office of Counter Terrorism.

From his bio on his company's web site:
http://www.berg-associates.com/larryc.htm

One of the associates there is a D.R. Gannon. I haven't been able to confirm or not any relationship to John C Gannon mentioned in a post above.

I know what you mean about so much to assimilate...

I had to leave the thread yesterday when there was only about 400 posts...right after Mary McCarthy's name was posted...

I am STILL trying to decided if it is worth going back and reading the thread...or stay here and be "caught up"...LOL

It may be overwhelmed with traffic or they may have taken it down as the left tries desperately and hopelessly to cover the tracks of these scumbags. fwiw, here's the list of signatories to a letter to John McCain.

Oh, you mean before the 2000 election? Because to my memory the dems, and the media have been anti-Bush since before he was sworn in.

Looks like Nicole Bagley from the ARCA board of directors is a good dem.

http://www.vvaf.org/about/staff-bios/nicole-bagley.html


This was particularly interesting:

http://www.freerepublic.com/forum/a3915d13e66e6.htm

She was an ambassador according to this:

http://www.newsmeat.com/fec/bystate_detail.php?city=WASHINGTON&st=DC&last=Bagley&first=Nicole

but I can't find which country (Mama was Ambassador to Portugal)

This stuff is way screwed up. We need to breakup these lists of thieves if we're going to find the bottom of this hole.
