Partisan Leaks

Digby adds his comments on the firing of Mary McCarthy. He seems to think that the same rules should apply to everyone. How quaint...

Can someone explain to me why it's assumed that Mary McCarthy leaked information for partisan reasons (because she gave money to the Kerry campaign) while her boss Porter Goss, who was a Republican congressman until a year and a half ago, is not assumed to have fired her for partisan reasons?

Remember, when Goss was head of the house intelligence committee, he had this to say about the alleged leak of covert operative Valerie Plame's name to Robert Novak:

"Somebody sends me a blue dress and some DNA, I'll have an investigation"


yeah, yeah, I know. IOKIY... whatever.
