American Hero Chooses Right Over Wrong




To left, American hero and CIA analyst Mary McCarthy, fired by the Bush government for helping to reveal their heinous inhumane practices -- to wit, the CIA secret prisons where torture's just another word for nothin' [moral] left to lose.

Nice that someone in the American government can tell right from wrong these days, is it not?




Glenn Greenwald's take here.
Larry Johnson's take at truthout here.

I wonder if Ms. McCarthy would be willing to lend out those cojones to certain members of the Democratic Party? No...bummer.

Brave woman. Obviously the crime here is the 'secret prisons'.

Well, it would be if the Bushists weren't living in their alternate universe. The crime, like with Abu Ghraib, is not doing something bad, but someone finding out.
