Ace of Spades asks:

Did Mary McCarthy Approve Joe Wilson’s Trip to Niger?

Curt at Flopping Aces points to a F/R commenter, Timeout, noting some interesting portfolio overlap:

Mary McCarthy: … began her government service as an analyst, then manager, in CIA’s Directorate of Intelligence, holding positions in both African and Latin American analysis. [I think this was 1984 to 1991].
1991 to 2001: National Security Council

Joe Wilson: U.S. Ambassador to the [African ]Gabonese Republic 1992 to 1995…
Special Assistant to the President and Senior Director for African Affairs at the National Security Council from June 1997 until July 1998

Mark Levin weighs in.
