Larry Johnson is giving Sat Morning Dem Radio Address

[RamboLiberal]

<snip>

I voted for George Bush in November of 2000 because I was promised a President who would bring a new tone and a new ethical standard to Washington.

So where are we? The President has flip-flopped on his promise to fire anyone at the White House implicated in a leak. We now know from press reports that at least Karl Rove and "Scooter" Libby are implicated in these leaks and may have lied during the investigation.

Instead of a President concerned first and foremost with protecting this country and the intelligence officers who serve it, we are confronted with a President who is willing to sit by while political operatives savage the reputations of good Americans like Valerie and Joe Wilson.

This is wrong and this is shameful.

We deserve people who work in the White House who are committed to protecting classified information, telling the truth to the American people, and living by example the idea that a country at war with Islamic extremists cannot focus its efforts on attacking other American citizens who simply tried to tell the truth.

I am Larry Johnson.

1. I remember when Larry Johnson used to shill for the Fraudministration.....

....on FAUX News. What a difference a few years makes. Probably because he was in the same class in the CIA academy as Valerie Plame.

3. That's a bit of

trivia, I like!

[Garbo 2004]

7. Yes, that's where I saw Johnson too, on Faux. Not a liberal or Dem

partisan, although no doubt now that's how he'll be portrayed by the slimemeisters if they take aim at him too.

[Catherine Vincent]

15. I'll betcha he's not asked on FAUX News anymore.

[Cha]

2. This is Amazing!

I'm Estactic all these people are speaking out for Truth, Justice, and Against the Orwellian Way!

Thank you, Larry Johnson! :patriot:

Edit~ to add..it's Brilliant of the Dems to have Larry Johnson giving the Dem Address.

6. I saw his testimony on C-Span. He was great.

He said how he had been a registered republican all his life but that he was outraged at how Bush was turning this vital issue into a partisan political issue and discrediting American intelligence worldwide at the same time.

[Nite Owl]

8. And he laid into McCain

to for being a mouthpiece for the WH. He was so good.

[faithnotgreed]

24. now that is speaking truth to power~ and someone who really needs

to hear it

thank you larry johnson

[ncteechur]

9. Buy boy are they all over his ass on Free Republic. They are

talking serious trash about him now.

[Erika]

10. Whatever. Freepers need to get real.

He testified under oath. The rest of the CIA agents did also.

[snowbear]

11. They're trashing Larry Johnson?

What the hell is wrong with them anyway?!?

[Rainscents]

13. Hey larissa!

:hi:

[snowbear]

16. Hi Rainscents! ...Hi Erika!

:hi: :hi:

BTW.. I hope the networks (and not just C-Span) play the entire Democratic response!! With Rovegate getting so hot n' heavy, you'd think that having a former CIA Agent responding to Bush would be pretty damned newsworthy.

Guess we'll see.. :shrug:

[Blue_Roses]

21. what's new?

they are always on anybody's ass who doesn't sit by and let this administration get away with the lies

It's to be expected with these idiots.

[Rainscents]

12. I liked to watch him talk when he was on FAUX , he was pretty balanced

even thou he is a republican... soon or later, one by one, they're coming over to our garage for a space.

[Erika]

14. Yeah

Especially when they give sworn testimony against the W administration's lies.

[safi0]

17. He was on Outfoxed

Him and Hannity argued about the Iraq War after that he was never asked back to Fox

[OneTwentyoNine]

19. LOL,most likely wiped the floor with Hannity over Iraq like everyone else.

Get Hannity into any situation where he can't talk over the other person,hang up,or pull the plug and you can out debate his ass every time.

Actor Mike Farrell DESTROYED Hannity over Iraq on his own radio show....

[AspenRose]

23. Ah, THAT's why he looked familliar

eom

[SeanQuinn]

18. He was on Faux, but he wasn't really a RW hack.

If I remember, Hannity got pissed off when he said US could not fight a war in Afghanistan and Iraq at same time.

[AspenRose]

22. Wow

:wow:

I heard him on Franken the other day....boy, he's not a happy camper about what happened to his pal Val...
