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."
Senior State Department officials believed that they had received a similar verdict independently, though they and Clarke's staff were probably relying on the same report. Mary McCarthy, the NSC senior director responsible for intelligence programs, initially cautioned Berger that the "bottom line" was that "we will need much better intelligence on this facility before we seriously consider any options." She added that the link between Bin Ladin and al Shifa was "rather uncertain at this point." Berger has told us that he thought about what might happen if the decision went against hitting al Shifa, and nerve gas was used in a New York subway two weeks later.
When did she give it? Was it just in 2004? Was it to try to steal the Presidential election from President Bush?
Wait, wouldn't it be great if Dana shared some of her prize money with Mary or gave her a traceable gift?
Honestly ........ yes .. but I'm sure they've been shredded/burned ... 3 hours ago, after Andrea called her ... LOL.
Coup-Plotters....the whole bunch, Clarke, Grossman, Wilson, Zinni, McCarthy, Plame, Wesley Clark....ALL COUP-PLOTTERS......The CABAL!
Tell him to be careful!
You must be thrilled to have him coming home!
Bless y'all.
I'm going to be good. I promised the hubbie pasta....don't wanna, but I'm gonna.
Then back to the computer.
Thanks.

I want to know what Senator Rockefeller told Syria's President Assad when he made a visit there 4 months before the war in Iraq started and now we have intelligence sources telling us Iraq's WMD went to Syria.
There is going to be a group of CIA rogue agents and democratic politicians that are implicated in high crimes against this country.
This has many legs and will grow more each day.
I agree 1000%! All the rats need to be found, purged and sent to jail!
Too rich.
She's been a mole for a good long time.
No telling what damage she has done.

She may work for Bush but she's a Clintonista. I hope this whole thing goes back to them one day.
My recollection is 'some, not all.'
But my memory from five years ago is not that clear....
You just can't fire civil servants because of their political affiliation. Most of the lifers are democrats.......which is why the State Dept, CIA, et al have been so much trouble.
