WASHINGTON - Within the past month, four former deputy directors of operations have tried to offer CIA Director Porter J. Goss advice about changing the clandestine service without setting off a rebellion, but Goss has declined to speak to any of them, said former CIA officials aware of the communications.

Loftus mentioned the other night on the John Batchelor show that one of the first CIA veterans canned was Mr. Anonymous, author of Imperial Hubris.
The cleaning has begun and don't be surprised to see a revenge- seeking, disinformation campaign on the behalf of fired, rogue officers take place in the media.
What Goss is doing is a very good thing.
Note that Walter Pincus (see byline above) is buds with Joe Wilson and his lovely bride, Val.
Oh, this is very very good.
I'm even hoping there are indictments against some of the CIA employees.
Go, Porter, GO!

McCain Blasts CIA as 'Rogue Agency'

Sen. John McCain blasted the Central Intelligence Agency on Sunday for its intelligence failures in the war on terror, adding that the nation's premier intelligence service has "in some ways" become a "rogue agency" that has betrayed President Bush.
Commenting on reports that a shake up by newly installed director Porter Goss has prompted a wave of resignations of top CIA brass, McCain told ABC's "This Week": "This is a dysfunctional agency and in some ways a rogue agency. This is the agency that gave the president of the United States - when he asked for information about weapons of mass destruction - said, 'It's a slam dunk.'"
The Arizona Republican accused disloyal elements within the CIA of working to undermine President Bush, complaining that they had engaged in "leaking information that could be damaging to the president prior to the election - using a compliant media, if I may say so."
McCain said that the CIA has also failed in its attempts to gather intelligence on North Korea and Iran, complaining that the U.S. knows little more about those two countries that it did ten years ago.
Addressing reform efforts by Director Goss, McCain said he's "on the right track. He is being savaged by these people who want the status quo and the status quo is not acceptable."
Sounds as if four former deputy directors should be working on their resumes. I understand that the DNC might be in the market...
"I understand that the DNC might be in the market..."
Might not be a bad Idea. Just feed them dis-information and let the Dims act on that. Then we attack their flank.
In the Army we call the the "Engineer Deception Plan".
Let the chips fall. Fumigate and power flush the place, then repeat at Dept of State.
Yeah, I wonder about that "wave of resignations". That could mean a lot of things. Could mean "resign or be fired", "resign or be prosecuted"....lots of things.
HOW DO WE KNOW THIS?
BECAUSE THE M.S.M. IS SCREAMING MAD ABOUT IT!
"BECAUSE THE M.S.M. IS SCREAMING MAD ABOUT IT!"
BINGO!
