White House Linked To Gay Escort Service?
this Jeff Gannon story just gets juicier - he's the fake reporter the White House gave a press pass to, in order to seed the briefings with Bush-friendly questions...

Senator Joe Biden, Bill Mahr, Robin Williams and company explore this hilarious story...growing, but the conservative mainstream media is trying to avoid it:

actually, the gay hooker angle is irrelevant (unless, of course, his access was tied to his extra-curricular activites ) - adds some color and comedy, but that's all..
the legitmate question is how a guy using a false name, without proper credentials, gets access to the White House, actually gets to ask the Prez questions, and apparently, has advance notice of some of the biggest stories of the moment, such as the commencement of hostilities in Iraq, before they happen |
