Bush's Anti-Gay Gay Hooker Caught Once Again |
Fear and Whoring in the West Wing

Gannongate Update: Gannon Never Served in USMC James Guckert,
the principal figure in the still-unfolding Gannongate scandal,
is back in the news.
Guckert, aka Jeff Gannon, served as a White House correspondent
for Talon News, until he was exposed as a GOP operative, with no
journalism experience, who was using a false identity (Jeff Gannon)
for two years, while lobbing softball questions to press secretary
Scott McClellan and president George Bush. Guckert resigned on
Feb 9th, and Talon News shut down soon thereafter. Guckert also
maintained web sites apparently advertising his services as a
male prostitute. A featured part of his appeal was his claim
to be a Marine. Apparently, like much about Guckert, this was
also false.
"Fake name. Fake reporter. Fake news agency. And now this ...
Fake Marine," writes Susan Gardner on The Daily Kos.
Gardner is co-founder of ePluribus Media, a volunteer organization
with more than 700 citizen journalists who are currently researching
the Gannongate story. According to an ePluribus Media press release:
"'We first conducted a search of military personnel records at the
National Personnel Records Center in St. Louis,' Gardner said. The
facility, a central repository which purports to hold all military
records, can find no service record under the name and Social
Security number of James D. Guckert.'"
"'Our contact there advised us to check directly with the Marine
Corps in Quantico,' Gardner said. 'An inquiry there produced the
same results, she said.'"
"On Guckert's gay escort web sites, he claims he is a Marine
veteran,' Gardner said. 'Yet the U.S. Marine Corps has no record
of his service, nor does the U.S. military's central records
division. We are beginning to doubt he was ever in the military.'"
"Gardner said that Guckert -- as 'Jeff Gannon,' the name he used
to gain entry into White House press briefings for more than two
years -- claimed military service on political web sites such as
conservativeguy.com."
"'To falsely claim military service as a way to ingratiate
oneself with conservative political organizations or gay escort
service clients seems not only fatuous but highly insulting to
American servicemen and women who are fighting and dying right
now in Iraq and Afghanistan,' said Gardner."

He opened up all his male prostititution websites, AFTER he was saved. I
thought it was supposed to work the other way around?

With the Conservative Hysteria in America, Conservatives think that they are
above their actions and above the law.

More money for the collection plate, you see.
What's curious is that everything exposed so far (pun intended!) shows
that the Bush regime wanted him there; that they knew he was a hooker.
They must have thought that nobody could match his fake name with his
real name.
It's also curious that they could have picked from a million other
right-wingnut extremists out there to be a fake shill yet they selected
a hooker from that pool of a million possible choices.
Very strange.

Are you seeing a similarity to the criminal that leaves clues, or sends
notes to the news? Hmmm.

I've got to believe they didn't think they would ever get caught.
It didn't seem to me that they selected a ringer who's a hooker just
to deliberately get it on the news to draw attention away from the
fascist regime's war crime atrocities, for instance. Looks like they
just didn't think anyone would notice Bush had hired a hooker.

I agree, arrogance often exposes itself, rather than conscious intent.
Sideshow distractions and distortions have worked for them before. The Rove
monastery has been working hard for years on creating and consolidating
Republican hegemony, and at the same time they do orchestrate sideshow
events to distract while the deals against America are made 'offstage'.
I hope to live long enough to learn all of the twisted behind-the-scenes
details of this sordid 'leadership' cabal. However, I more concerned about
seeing decent government change NOW.

What's strange about Scott McClellan being a fag? Who didn't see that
