CIA Officer Fired, How Long Before Bush Blamed?

Perhaps it is because she is a liberal who supports liberal causes and liberal candidates. You see, to the DBM liberals can do no wrong because their actions are in the interest of the greater good as opposed to the wicked Republicans who are only out for themselves. McCarthy was appointed by Sandy Berger during the Clinton administration and she donated money to the presidential campaign of John Kerry. None of this matters as far as civil servants are concerned in the execution of their daily jobs but it does explain why the DBM has not made a big fuss about her dismissal. I am waiting because I am almost certain the allegations will shortly fly. She was released because she is liberal or appointed by Berger, or came from the Clinton administration or is a scape goat for the Bush administration’s failings etc….
This woman will be a martyr because she disclosed information concerning secret jails in other countries. She will be the cause celeb because she will be held up as the newest scandal concocted by the DNC. She will be the rallying cry as have so many other causes that have fizzled. Yes, Howard Dean will be telling us that she was fired because Bush is trying to show that it was Clinton people who could not keep a secret. He or Pelosi will probably claim that this is a deliberate firing to make it look like Republicans are not the only ones leaking information (though I remind you that no Republican has been charged with leaking anything).
There is an old saying that goes something like “be careful what you ask for.” In this case the DBM has been demanding that leaks (curiously, they were only concerned with the leak of a liberal’s identity, Valerie Plame) be investigated and those responsible, fired. Well, leaks were investigated and someone was fired. Just turns out is what not what they were expecting.

Hey, It was Bush’s fault. She was a carry over from Clinton and he did not fire her. Doubt that the jackass lefti press will say that one. Oh, they will find some way to blame our President.
Maybe Harry Reid will find a way to link her to President Bush. He has a habit of making irresponsible comments.
