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."

By the end of the weekend, the MSM will be back on the "Bush leaked" non-story. Moral equivalent. BS for sure, but it is just about all they have for now.

Great Minds think alike! I thought the same thing. Speculation is fun however, with the Rockafeller Memo as proof, the Dems and their cohorts appear to have orchestrated a hit against all things Bush. So this does not appear to be to far fetched.

The officer flunked a polygraph exam before being fired on Thursday and is now under investigation by the Justice Department, NBC has learned.

It's looking GOOD for our side, ordi.
Porter Goss will not stop or let up.
He's had it with the leakers and the snakes.

Need to find out if she had her hand in QA assessments of the analysis of any potentially actionable intel findings. Like, this debunked, or that debunked.
