Chalmers Johnson: A National Intelligence Estimate on the United States (Harpers)

Chalmers Johnson is the author of the trilogy comprised of Blowback; The Sorrows of Empire; and Nemesis: The Last Days of the American Republic. He was a consultant to the National Intelligence Estimate (NIE) process for the Central Intelligence Agency from 1968-1972, and has been a tenured professor in East Asian studies and political science for thirty years at the University of California/San Diego. Johnson was a guest on Mark Dankof's America on the Republic Broadcasting Network on Friday, February 9th. The trilogy is must reading.

Chalmers Johnson told Mark Dankof, among other things, that there were only two options for dealing with Mr. Bush's Neo-Conservative War for Empire: Congressional de-funding, and Impeachment.
