Gannon says he's a syndicated column for the Washington Blade??
Ok, so I'm reading this link for the Equality Forum, which has Jeff Gannon as one of the speakers at it. His little blurb bio says the following:

http://www.equalityforum.org/2006/program.cfm?PanelID=4
Jeff Gannon
Conservative blogger; former White House correspondent

Jeff Gannon is a syndicated columnist for the Washington Blade and publishes his own personal political blog, JeffGannon.com. Gannon is also a former White House correspondent for Talon News.

Ok, I've just spent 15 minutes searching for SOMETHING that says Gannon actually does a regular column for the local GBLT paper in Washington DC. Hell, this is like producing a daily paper on Chicken Pen protection and asking for the Fox to contribute stories for it :crazy:

1. Endlines are often full of fluffy crap
to make the writer and publication seem more legit.

Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain.

3. Well, it's not the paper - the Blade has been around forever
and very respectable. Perhaps he had one item published in the blade and BAM! he's a 'syndicated columnist' for the Blade

2. He must be great in the sack.
Jeffy's been throwing it down to get a gig like that.

4. He must have had a change of heart....or something.
He did an interview with The Advocate sometime back...right after the furor about the White House press pass scandal and all...where he basically didn't want anything to do with the GLBT community. And now...this gig?

5. You know if I wanted someone from the conservative side for the GBLT issue
I'd find like the president of the Log Cabin Republicans and NOT some hate-spewing, bush suck-up.

But that's just me
