Larry Johnson to give tomorrow Democratic radio address. Transcript follows:


"Good morning. I'm Larry Johnson, an American, a registered Republican, a former intelligence official at the CIA, and a friend of Valerie Plame.

I entered on duty at the CIA in September 1985 with Valerie. We were members of the Career Trainee Program. Senator Orin Hatch wrote the letter of recommendation for me which I believe that helped open the doors to me at the CIA.

From the first day we walked into the building, all members of my training class were undercover, including Valerie. In other words, we had to lie to our family and friends about where we worked. We could only tell those who had an absolute need to know where we worked. In my case, I told my wife.

I knew the wife of Ambassador Wilson, Valerie, as Valerie P. Even though all of us in the training class held Top Secret Clearances, we were asked to limit our knowledge of our other classmates to the first initial of their last name.

1. Mr. Johnson gave the pResident more than ample time to do the right thing

and Dimson went in the opposite direction, changing his grounds for action from being involved in the leak to criminal acts. Well, Mr. Johnson is now teaching Civics and Constitution 101 to the Junta, Congressional Republicans and the RNC Chair. Not gonna be much dignity left among any of them when he gets through. And they brought it down on themselves by putting political manuvering above national security and the protection of those who work to assure that national security.

Am wondering what MATCOM's dad thinks these days. DADCOM, you out there? Gonna be interesting watching retired agents mop the floor with Rove and those "prime-time patriots and partisan ninnies" as former CIA case officer Jim Marcinkowski so aptly described those GOP spin-miesters.

Anybody know if the Johnson's radio address will be on a webcast too? Where I live, regular radio reception is a myth.
