Of course these will need to be updated as more information surfaces.
"Thanks....I saw a post that said that Howard Dean is looking to establish a Mary McCarthy Defense Fund???"
I posted it here;
McCarthy in Denial -- DNC May Set Up McCarthy Legal Defense Fund
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/1621945/posts?page=1
And an unexcerpted version here:
DNC May Set Up McCarthy Legal Defense Fund | Sweetness & Light

The SAME Anthony Lake who withdrew his nomination as CIA Director under Clinton...
and who

"But Lake was directly involved in another national security-for-campaign contributions transaction. Writing in the April issue of The American Spectator (which was published just shortly before Lake's withdrawal), national security analyst Kenneth Timmerman observed that Lake "helped Occidental Petroleum, a California firm, obtain an exemption from the 1996 anti-terrorism act in order to pursue a lucrative oil deal in Sudan -- a country that is on the State Department's list of international terrorist nations -- by ordering the Treasury Department to write regulations that took the teeth out of the law. Occidental returned the favor with large donations to both the DNC and key congressional democrats." Sudan, it should be noted, plays a vital role in the radical Islamic network that Lake tapped into to create the Iran-Bosnia arms pipeline.
Furthermore, Occidental Petroleum is the firm established by the late Armand Hammer, the American businessman who served as Lenin's "path" to American capitalism. As we have pointed out previously (see "Al Gore's Red Connections" in our March 31st issue), among Hammer's most intimate business associates was Al Gore Sr., who was given a $500,000-a-year position as the head of Occidental's coal division as a reward for helping Hammer obtain access to foreign political leaders and deterring FBI investigations into Hammer's Soviet connections. It appears that Lake was willing to perform similar services for the post-Hammer Occidental Petroleum firm."
Republicans in both the House and the Senate view McCarthy as the first of what they believe are four or five individuals who used access to information for political purposes.

Thanks for the ping, Mo1, and the thread, Sam Hill.

Thanks. I'm hoping others will come along with chart-making skills, who can add further links.
You know there are more.
"The SAME Anthony Lake who withdrew his nomination as CIA Director under Clinton..."
The same Anthony Lake who recommended opening up travel to Cuba during the Carter Administration. (which Carter did)
Dana Priest's husband's organization lobbys to open travel to Cuba.
Philip Agee (ex-cia turncoat)has a travel agency www.cubalinda.com for foreigners to travel to Cuba.
I'm sure there's no connection.

I was going to do a chart...but I see I've been beaten to it. :-)
"Philip Agee (ex-cia turncoat)has a travel agency www.cubalinda.com for foreigners to travel to Cuba."

And not only is travel to Cuba the Holy Grail for Dana Priest's husband, it is the mission of Code Pink.

Former CIA Larry Johnson and sometimes MSNBC talking head expert, is most famous for his rabid defense of Valerie Plame.
http://noquarter.typepad.com/my_weblog/2005/10/why_patrick_fit.html
He's already spoken in support of Mary McCarthy too.
http://www.berg-associates.com/larryc.htm
Talk about a puffed up resume, but left out are his connections to those in the CIA and State Dept who have made a career out of trying to bring down the Bush administration.
When we compile the group of people Rush calls "A Shadow Government" , let's not forget to include Larry Johnson. No doubt he's one of Dana Priest's sources.
Yes, I have written about Larry Johnson and Ray McGovern quite extensivesly, most recently here:

We can always use more charts. Especially in this strange game of Pin the Marxist on the Presidency game that the left wants to play.
How about a chart showing Center for International Policy and all of its sub groups and associated groups?
Or all of the non profits that receive grants from the Tides Foundation or Soro's Open Policy Foundation(s)?
We could keep a plethora of chart makers busy. :-)
