In case anyone missed it, Larry Johnson (CIA hero) is a DUer!!!
I'm one of the ones who missed this fact. I ran across a post from him tonight, in a very long thread. Anywho... Mr. Johnson, you can lecture me like I'm a third grader.....all you want. :*

Let's all welcome Mr. Johnson to DU and mayhaps a word of thanks for fighting against the enemies of our democracy (foreign and domestic).


I'll start..........

THANK YOU MR. JOHNSON! :yourock: These last six years have been one massive dark cloud of death, deceit and destruction. You have been one of the few true patriots who have upheld their oath, who have been brave enough to stick their necks out for their country....for us. Thank you so much, if it wasn't for people like you, I truly do not know how I would have kept my sanity and my faith. God Bless.
Susan

:patriot:

4. Well, someone using that name is posting here, anyway.
The last time he was here a few months ago, so was a poster with the name "jasonleopold" but the other day, when "jasonleopold" also reappeared after a few months, it came into question whether he was who he claimed to be, so be careful.

just saying.

7. It's been confirmed
Edited on Sat Sep-02-06 11:57 PM by George Oilwellian
Here's his original post:
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=364&topic_id=1183131&mesg_id=1183804

And here's confirmation it was him:

One last note on former CIA Analyst Larry Johnson's comment on Democratic Underground that Joseph Wilson received the same information as Jason: Some have questioned whether Larry really wrote the comment, or whether it was an imposter. I e-mailed Larry, and he responded, indeed it was him. He added, Joe heard the same things but not from Jason. If these multiple sources are lying then I certainly hope Jason outs their a*s.

Any questions? I didn't think so.

Larry's a true patriot and you're right...one of the few.

9. It's kind of him to check in here,
and hopefully helps his voice be heard further and wider.

10. Mr. Johnson, I appreciated your comments on the FDL CIA leak case panel
Thanks for posting here.

Would you be willing to entertain some questions, perhaps?

Thank you again,
Julie

12. I bet he'd really like to.
And I'd bet there's not much he could say in answer to questions that he isn't putting into his blog.

11. Larry Johnson has been a DUer for awhile....
...but I hate to break up this love fest, I don't believe that is the actual "Larry Johnson"....

Can't find his DU sign in, but I believe the real Larry Johnson has had a sign in name that dates back well over a year and has atleast several hundred posts...not "4"....

Just sayin....before you all get to excited...

13. See post #7 above.
But I sure like a healthy skepticism!

14. If you check the list of members...
there's only one Larry Johnson and there's a line between his two names. The number of posts you mention were from quite a while ago. His posts to date I'm sure are much more.

15. It says 4 posts...

16. Possibly....I know Larry comes on here and its not that it isn't him, I
just think sometimes folks on DU get a bit carried away and we have had a lot of disruptors and folks who aren't what they portray themselves to be. I do agree however with everything that he did post regarding the matter and those that want to shred Jason Leopold.

18. I see what you mean
I thought his recent post had a higher number. If you do a search using his name, you'll find there are a number of threads with his name in it...but not necessarily a post by him. Perhaps that's why we think he's been here more often.

17. I don't think Larry Johnson has a high post count.
I believe it was only 1-2 posts the last time, when his identity was confirmed, and about the same thing this time. Both times he posted, it was in defense of Jason Leopold. I have no reason to believe the poster isn't who he says he is.
