A LEGEND IN HER OWN MIND
Although Mary McCarthy has not come out of hiding, she has still been busy.
Mary McCarthy Admits Her Maverick Ways
Looks like Mary McCarthy and the rogue CIA agents, along with the news media (and an out of control prosecutor?) have decided the time is right to admit she was just trying to be a hero.
…
What is fascinating about this is McCarthy, as deputy Inspector General for the CIA knew what the process was to go to Congress as a whistleblower and call these people on their lies. In fact, if she had the goods on someone at the CIA lying to Congress she would have been the darling of Reps and Dems - especially those like John McCain. She had the clout as Deputy IG to be taken seriously.
But we know from Democrat and Republican staffers McCarthy never once availed herself of the whistleblower status. There is no record of her once challenging the reports to Congress. She had all the opportunity, but she went to Dana Priest*? If she was such a maverick, independent thinker, why not turn these people into Congress? She was retiring! There could be no retribution aimed at her for disclosing lies!
…
Stunningly, McCarthy is still leaking, through her friends, classified details. And all these details dovetail nicely with Dana Priest’s stories.
MARY McCARTHY: HEROINE
In the end, our Mary just couldn’t take it. Armed with knowledge known only to the CIA and those unimportant people who work on top of that big Washington, D.C.hill in that funny looking domed building, this just wasn’t enough. Due to her superior moral sense, our heroine just knew – she felt it in her bones – that absolutely everyone should know what she knows. Only then would her moral outrage be assuaged and goodness triumph over evil.
