:Actually, when the article is read in context, he is not 100% wrong, but that is neither here nor there.  The fact is I am not resisting this information being put in the article at all; I am simply stating that it is not that big a deal  everyone had a pre-911 mindset before 911, and the few who didn't - like Clarke, Scheuer - were seen as paranoid.  The only reason Johnson's pre-911 views have been made an issue is to make a nonsensical smear against him.  I am not pushing you around; I am trying to keep the article useful and relevant and free of idiotic statements and right wing propaganda.   
 :As far as his expertise goes, please point to a single source actually questioning his expertise.  Something other than innuendo based on something he wrote before 911.  There is no need for personal attacks; I am not a "bully."  If you are not trying to smear Johnson, why is it you insist on implying that he is a liar by putting qualifiers in every statement, when those statements are not contested by anyone on earth?
