A CIA official who had a top role during the run-up to the Iraqi war charges the White House with ignoring intelligence that said there were no weapons of mass destruction or an active nuclear program in Iraq.Fox: CIA Officer Fired for Leaking Classified Info to Media
Citing the Privacy Act, the CIA would not provide any details about the officer's identity or assignments. It was not immediately clear if the person would face prosecution. The firing is a highly unusual move, although there has been an ongoing investigation into leaks in the CIA.
These are two totally different guys, but I just thought it was interesting that as one guy is going on 60 Minutes to declare the administration a bunch of lying bastards, another one is getting shitcanned for passing on info to the media as part of an "ongoing investigation."
Must be some fun times at the CIA right now.
