Mary McCarthy is said to be responsible for a secret prisons leak, among others. She leaked to the Wash Po's Dana Preist, who is married to William Goodfellow, executive director of the Center for International Policy, which was founded about 1975 by reddoperdaiperbabies. It's mission : To "reform" US intelligence agencies to fit with their internationalist goals and disarmament ideas. Priest is a coworker of Walter Pincus.
McCarthy's position at the CIA was more recently in the inspector General's office which would have been charged with looking into leaks such as the alleged leak about Valerie Wilson. She's given a fair amount of congressional testimony before being caught.
Mary McCarthy was a Sandy Berger pick at the NSC before going to the CIA. She was involved in the planning of the US bombing of the el Shifa pharmaceutical plant in Sudan back in the 90s... but it seems her role was to always say "we need more proof." Sudanese intermediary Tourabi [seems to have a tie with Sami al Arian of Tampa FL ].
Former CIA guy Larry Johnson, now of VIPS, worked for Mary McCarthy when she was over the Latin America division.
She was a donor to a gentleman named Steve Andreason... as I recall there are a number of curious GWOT figures who donated to him but at the moment I'm coming up dry.
She donated to Kerry and made a very substantial donation to the Ohio Democrat Party
LOTS of political "incest" it looks like to me....
All of it with the goal of taking down the Bush Admin..but NOT our real enemies.
