4. yes they do
They aren't going to lie down and take a scapegoating this blatant. These people will fight back. Not to mention they are not too happy about the Wilson-Plame affair.

5. True, indeed,
and I sure as hell am glad I'm not a career CIA right now, my blood pressure probably would have exploded by now. BTW, I once interviewed with a CIA recruitment team in college, believe it or not! Sure am glad nothing came of it.
