3. Not purge, but scapegoat.
Edited on Tue Apr-25-06 02:39 PM by Zen Democrat
Ms. McCarthy had already retired from the CIA in February. Her last day was supposed to be April 30. They fired her a week before she was already leaving.

This smells of scapegoat. I suspect that leaker was one the Republican Senators briefed by Dick Cheney -- maybe Specter or McCain or Hagel. They "fire" a CIA person already retiring and she gets the rap for the leak. That's my scenario.
