Firing is too good for this bitch who cares more about her personal gain than she does about her country. She should be locked up.
They should call it treason and hang this traitorous wench.
Your job was to do as you were bloody well told.
It's interesting that when the news broke, so many Freepers speculated that the CIA leaker (Mary McCarthy) is a "he."
According to former Kerry campaign staffers, Beers, who served as a senior adviser to Kerry's campaign, spoke of having continued access to CIA and national security data from former colleagues still in government.
"He said he still had friends willing to help the Kerry campaign from inside," says a former staffer. "We always assumed that guys like Beers and Berger were in touch with these people. I'm not talking about having secure material leaked to us, but our national security folks always seemed to be in the know." The former staffer said he never recalled mention of any names.
Kerry doesn't seem to have inspired loyalty in his staff. I also question whether a staffer would KNOW if the information Beers and Berger had was classified.
How about we hypothetically roll the clock back 35 years to say, 1971 when there was a real and tangible nuclear threat from the Soviet Union.
What if Mary McCarthy had leaked information relating to secret safe houses and citizens of foreign nations that we had recruited as sources of information behind the Iron Curtain, and moved from safe house to safe house? Would that not be considered high treason, as dastardly as what Aldrich Ames did?
The "reasons" for McCarthy leaking that classified information are totally irrelevant. She did not have the authority to disseminate that information, she was in fact prohibited by federal law from allowing ANY unauthorized person from having access to such information, she deliberately chose to disregard and ignore the law and gave that information to at least one person, Dana Priest of the Washington Post, and it must be assumed that she may have shared that information with other as yet undetermined parties.
In 1971, it would have been considered an act of treason, and now, with America at war? If this isn't high treason, then the crime of treason no longer exists.
Mary McCarthy should be indicted, tried and convicted of high treason against the United States, Dana Priest and her corporate masters at the Washington Post should likewise be charged, as they knowingly received and published highly classified information, knowing that such publication could and did endanger our national security, the war effort, and the safety of United States Armed Forces.
The answer?
Nice tall trees, and short pieces of rope.
They are ALL traitors and if they cannot be held to account for their crimes against our Nation, then we as a Nation might as well run up the white flag of surrender to our enemies both foreign AND domestic, because America will have lost this war at home and abroad.
While everyone is watching Josh Bolton's staff changes, I wonder if he is resposible for a "new tone" in regards to finally fighting back. Maybe, this is a first shot.
The fact of the matter is McCarthy committed a treasonist act, and for Kerry and others to come out and act like this could be some sort of "whistle blowing" exercise is completely bogus. It really shows you the kind of character you're dealing with to excuse such blatant treason...
Why some of the people are not in jail is a travesty to justice...Dan Rather, Mary Mapes, Sandy "Sox" Burger, The Clintons,...Mary McCarthy.
ping for later
