*** Captain Ed Morrissey has some excellent thoughts on this matter here. Interesting to see the good Captain was an FSO, so was I at one (brief) time. *** Well, this is a surprise. Mary McCarthy, who according to government sources admitted to exposing classified information to reporters, and possibly specifically Dana Priest of the […]

In a stunning reversal, Mary McCarthy is apparently denying she leaked CIA Prison story (even thoug, if she admitted to the act the CIA would have a signed statement to the contrary I would think): A former CIA officer who was sacked last week after allegedly confessing to leaking secrets has denied she was the […]

The left want to characterize the Wilson-Plame, NSA and McCarthy stories and whistleblowing. The problem is with this arguement – all ethe claims of wrongdoing where proven […]

Update: Tom Maguire catches the irony of Pincus commenting on leaks regarding Plame (who else would know better!). End Update Why are Democrats defending the leaks?
