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."
WOW! LOL! Thanks for the ping!
If we're pricks, what's that make them 'bout now?
ROTF!!!
I think the scientifically technical term would be:
LEFTUS INCESTUS
"I wish this would unravel the whole thing. Because we KNOW it's there. A concerted efffort to destroy George Bush."
Clarke, Grossman, Beers, Wilson, Zinni, McCarthy, Plame, Wesley Clark....+ MSM + ? = the Coup Plotters in the well controlled plot to electronically coup President Bush.
FYI, three blogs with connections to four senators have shut down... back up your info. Flopping Aces (who had all the links up to Rockefeller and the rest), down.
Fascinating. From Fenton Communications and moveon.org to CIP and anti-Bush propaganda to Dana Priest whose husband is a leading guru and activist for the Bush-hating left..... no wonder Mary McCarthy felt 'safe' leaking to Dana Priest.
Can we talk about a "vast left-wing conspiracy" yet? :^)
This Fenton is one busy guy.
John Kerry brings in former communist agent to slime Vietnam vets and smear Sinclair Broadcast Group.

From an Amazon.com review of Dana Priest's book, The Mission: Waging War and Keeping Peace with America's Military == now available in used form for $1.69
******
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/customer-reviews/0393010244/ref=cm_cr_dp_pt/102-8349456-4358512?%5Fencoding=UTF8&n=283155&s=books
The first of these components is the idea that the military has been brought into situations that exceed the scope of their training. The issue at hand has been addressed several times throughout the book. One example of such a situation was the peacekeeping mission in Kosovo. Soldiers were sent into the Balkans with specific rules of engagement that prevented them from doing the very task they were trained to do, fight. In the end, the mission backfired and the people they were trying to aid, turned into the people they should be trying to stop. The cause of the failed mission was a lack of training and experience in unconventional military duties. Different examples of this misuse of the military are more extreme. There are situations when special forces have been used for nation building in Afghanistan and Iraq, and to help distribute humanitarian aid in countries such as Nigeria and Somalia. Forces were even expanded as far out to include the war on drugs in Colombia.
The second portion of the review covers the idea that the Commanders in Chief, along with the military as a whole, have become more powerful than imagined in the execution of foreign policy. The power instilled in these CinC's came through trust, dependencies and their overwhelming budgets. This idea, not unlike the other, is displayed in several situations throughout the book. The majestic powers of the CinC's began with Priest's discussion of General Anthony Zinni of U.S. Central Command, who was in control of all military affairs in much of the Middle East and through parts of Africa. There, Zinni was not only in charge of the military operations, his duties entailed most diplomatic missions as well. This book follows the career of Zinni through the flexing of his controlling muscle in the Persian Gulf and up into central Asia with Afghanistan, Uzbekistan, and others. Other CinC's that Priest addresses include: Admiral Dennis Blair, CinC of Pacific Command, General Wesley Clark, CinC of European Command, and General Charles Wilhelm, CinC of Latin America. After September 11, 2001, the CinC's gained much power with the approval of their sworn enemy, Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld. He even added an extra CinC to the mix; the U.S. Northern Command, which was to reign over Canada, Mexico, and the United States.

Note from maica: Why does the reviewer calmly say that SecDef Donald Rumsfeld is the sworn enemy of these Generals.
OBVIOUS Sarcasm from another board...
AP and UPI reported that the Liberals announced yesterday that it has raised its terror alert level from "run" to "hide."
The only two higher lib levels are and "collaborate." and "surrender". Mass confusion occured when the libs tried out thier new color code.
"Yellow" , since its thier only color no one knew what to do. They had runners trying to hide, collabarators trying to surrender.
Calm was restored when Hillary announced massive new tax hikes. Soon after every lib returned to normal. And crawled back under thier bed.
I think the scientifically technical term would be:
LEFTUS INCESTUS
We really can't ........ that's the problem. Most people are too far behind ............ to busy making a living and paying their absurd taxes.
Things were breaking quickly Friday afternoon. By the time Fred Barnes was on the air with Hugh Hewitt @ 7:15 EDT he told her name to Hugh, who did not know it at that moment.
We knew it on FR very early. ;^}
Sounds like she might have something on him...he is coming to her defense while calling her names...distancing??
In case no one else adds this to the thread, Fenton Communications was behind the Cindy Sheehan Summer at Crawford spectacle. They are closely allied with Medea Benjamin and Code Pink, among others.
"Has anyone thought about the possibility that The leaker gave Sandy Burglar a heads up so that he went into the archives and stole notes that might have incriminated The Clinton Administration and him in particular for the failure to capture Bin Laden and prevent the 9-11 attack."
Sandy Burglar gets caught and to get a light sentence, he rolls over on Mary McTraitor and ?.
Good lord, they're everywhere. I just cannnot wrap my mind around it all.
Thanks for the link.
