Sure PLane and Wilson are who they are, but the CIA employs between 10k-20k people. How many are Plane/Wilson’s? Hundreds? Thousands? more than half? Less than?
I don’t really know. I just started wading into the book. I will try to get back to you with more info. The book focuses on the Washington political culture and how they manipulate intelligence to suit their own (usually partisan) purposes.

I’d wager that, given the waters that NoVa govt workers swim in, more than half of Langley’s employees voted for Obama.
So, yes, a significant fraction are leftie hacks who are punching their paycheck at CIA instead of State.
