During the “investigation” into the “leak” her former supervisor described her as an analyst. She drove to, and parked her car at the CIA building in Langley. Operatives don’t do that; clerical agents do. Operatives don’t do interviews and photo spreads for Vanity Fair magazine. Operatives don’t hop into bed with a lackey like Joe Wilson on the second date and then proclaim during pillow-talk “I’m a spy for the CIA”. A clerical agent who thinks her low-level position at the CIA makes her a female James Bond might do something like that and then boast about it in a Vanity Fair interview; but not a real operative.
