Excellent catch and explanation:
"Everybody's skipping by the part where she has a degree in Library Science.
"Doesn't sound like much, but has she maintained connections with the leftwing gang that run the American Library Association. They are the people who have been running a campaign against the Patriot Act."
The link below is another place with Mary McTraitor's bio that was scrubbed from the The Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS)..

Mary McCarthy, a CIA officer,is currently a visiting fellow at The Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS). Prior to joining CSIS in August 2001, Mary O. McCarthy was a senior policy adviser to the CIA's deputy director for science and technology. Until July 2001, she served as special assistant to the president and senior director for intelligence programs on the National Security Council (NSC) Staff, under both Presidents Clinton and Bush. From 1991 until her appointment to the NSC, McCarthy served on the National Intelligence Council. She began her government service as an analyst, then manager, in CIA's Directorate of Intelligence, holding positions in both African and Latin American analysis. From 1979 to 1984 she was employed by BERI, S.A., conducting financial, operational, and political risk assessments for multinational companies and banks. Previously she had taught at the University of Minnesota and was director of the Social Science Data Archive at Yale University. She is the author of Social Change and the Growth of British Power in the Gold Coast (University Press of America, 1983). McCarthy has a B.A. and M.A. in history from Michigan State University, an M.A. in library science from the University of Minnesota, and a Ph.D. in history from the University of Minnesota.

Michele Flournoy of CSIS
Seth Winnick who is the consul general to Vietnam, worked in the State Department
Howard Shapiro, who is with Wilmer, Cutler, et al (works with Jamie Gorelick, etc.)
Pierre Larroque who is a mining consultant for Latin America and Africa (hmmmm, where've I heard those countries lately?)
I'd hate to have a Tupperware party in THAT neighborhood!
Just thought it was interesting.....
BTW, that's for that all important GS15 to SES jump.
Seems to me the leftwingnuts would want to have protection in depth so they'd put their principals in deep cover with friendly neighbors.
So, how far away do the Wilson's live anyway?
Supposedly, the Wilsons live in Georgetown, and the McCarthys live in Bethesda, Maryland. I've only been to DC once, for the March for Justice, so I have no idea how far apart they are. It'd be interesting to find out who their neighbors are too...a little digging might turn up something...or someone. :)
You have such things as the National Institutes of Health, Bethesda Naval Hospital, etc. up there, so they attract a certain crowd.
The rich people live in Georgetown (in DC) or out in Potomac MD (further to the Northwest in MD).
Maryland has a zoning/development plan called "Wedges and Corridors". The "Wedges" are supposed to be semirural with parks and farms. The "Corridors" are where there are houses and places of employment.
The "area" we are talking about where all these people live is probably 15 miles long, North to South, and 5 miles wide.
But any public or private official who lends their name to the defense of McCarthy or Joe Wilson is very likely to be part of the cabal and should be put on the list of conspirators. You don't publicly defend people against charges which you have no knowledge of (unless you are either part of their crowd or you know something about it that you shouldn't).
