Officials said that Ms. McCarthy's security clearance was pulled when she was fired, but that no consideration was given to taking away the pension she had earned as a career C.I.A. employee.

My, my. Isn't that special?

Compassion for traitors...

I read somewhere that she was 10 days away from retirement. Guess we should be glad they at least took away her security clearance. I don't think they could legally have taken away her pension. This is in the 2007 Intelligence Authorization Act that is suppose to be voted on in the House (I think sometime this week):

SEC. 413. STUDY ON REVOKING PENSIONS OF PERSONS WHO COMMIT UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURES OF CLASSIFIED INFORMATION.
(a) Study- The Director of National Intelligence shall conduct a study on the feasibility of revoking the pensions of personnel in the intelligence community (as defined in section 3(4) of the National Security Act of 1947 (50 U.S.C. 401a(4))) who commit unauthorized disclosures of classified information, including whether revoking such pensions is feasible under existing law or under the administrative authority of the Director of National Intelligence or any other head of an element of the intelligence community.
(b) Report- Not later than 90 days after the date of the enactment of this Act, the Director of National Intelligence shall submit to the Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence of the House of Representatives and the Select Committee on Intelligence of the Senate a report containing the results of the study conducted under subsection (a).

Need to bring a criminal charge to justify taking away the pension.

"Officials said that Ms. McCarthy's security clearance was pulled when she was fired, but that no consideration was given to taking away the pension she had earned as a career C.I.A. employee."

I predict there will be no "pension". The woman is a traitor.

Unless the CIA makes an example of this scum, the problem will continue.
