A couple of months before 9/11 attacks on NY and DC and the flight that plowed into PA, good ol’ Larry wrote:

JULY 23, 2003 : (LARRY JOHNSON TO GIVE DEMOCRAT RESPONSE TO PRES BUSH’S WEEKLY RADIO ADDRESS-—SEE BERG ASSOCIATES, PALISADES SECURITY, WILLIAM WAGNER, VIPS) One of the “committees” former CIA analysts who testified, was “former CIA agent Larry Johnson.” [my note: state dept analyst too] He’s been out from the beginning of this, even back in 2003 and 2004, all over NBC and MSNBC, attacking the Bush administration for leaking Plame’s name. He’s been a wild-eyed attack dog from the beginning. Today...get this...he’s the one giving the Democrat’s radio response to the President’s weekly radio address.
I just heard a snippet of what Johnson said, on CNN Headline news. He names Rove and Libby as the culprits, and demands they be fired. He attacks the President for not doing so.
If we ever wanted proof the democrats have made the decision to “get Rove and Libby”, it’s this radio response today. No mention of Judge Roberts at all.

Larry Johnson is a rat hack, runs with the folks who set out to -and succeeded in -undermining the war on terror and specifically, the Iraq War: “Veteran Intelligence Progfessionals For Sanity,” VIPS. The media quoted them extensively, targeting conservatives by an “appeal to authority” method.

He’s also involved in some other silly arse stuff, such as Lyndon laRouche and Michael Moore “documentaries.”

VIPS’ main dude was Ray McGovern, and they have appeared at the request of progressive liberals at the fake hearings they held back around 2002-4 just as none other than John Kerry was ramping up for a presidential run.

Another is Mel Goodman, who claims to be past CIA too, and who is married to Amy Goodman who hosts the FAR FAR LEFT “Democracy Now!” show.

They are part of Dan Ellesberg’s cliche, his group on the record as requesting people to leak classified info in violation of the law, and if you are old enough that will ring bells because Danny Boy was the North Vietnamese’ best friend [well, after John Kerry.] Ellesberg wrote, while in the taxpayer’s employ, the Pentagon Papers, which he then stole and took to the media, the NY Times, IIRC, to undermine the war. The Papers were used as “evidence” against the war, even though he created them in the first place.

That said, he is interesting to read to see what spin the left is going to be up to. Larry claims to be Republican but then, so does Bloomberg, and every liberal seminar caller that ever phoned into talk radio.
