2. Ahhh, do the name Jeff Gannon strike a familiar note?
Edited on Thu Apr-27-06 07:23 PM by SpiralHawk
I have long felt that the corporate media PROSTITUTED itself beyond all credence by ignoring the story of the male prostitute who visited George AWOL Bush's republicon White House OVER 200 TIMES according to the official documentation of the White House Secret Service.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeff_Gannon

Why did the corporate press turn its back on this Bush-Republicon male prostitute sex scandal?

They owe it to America to tell us the FULL STORY about Jeff Gannon and the George Bush republicon White House.

To do less is -- dare I say it -- treason.

15. Jeff Gannon/Guckert
Had his own escort web page and yet the media just ignored it. A WH reporter with full accessibility and not one word reported about his web site?

17. FINALLY???
This is the just the latest in a LONG LINE of purile sexual perversion. It's just that they've had control over the media and was able to surpress coverage of their infinitely sicker sexual scandals.

CIA's Goss Drawn Into Hooker Probe?
By Justin Rood - April 27, 2006
http://www.tpmmuckraker.com/archives/000494.php

Ken Silverstein reports at Harper's blog on the spreading Cunningham-Wade-Wilkes prostitute scandal. He says more lawmakers, past and present, are being investigated. Sounds like he thinks House Intel Chair-turned-CIA Director Porter Goss is one of them:

I've learned from a highly-connected source that those under intense scrutiny by the FBI are current and former lawmakers on Defense and Intelligence comittees -- including one person who now holds a powerful intelligence post.


Yowzah.

Actually, make that a double-yowzah: Remember that Goss is the one who plucked one of Wilkes' old San Diego friends, the unusual and colorful Kyle "Dusty" Foggo, out of CIA middle-management obscurity to be his #3 at the agency. At the time of Foggo's appointment, no one could figure out where he came from, or how Goss knew him.

But if Goss was at the "parties," I wonder, was Foggo there too? Did they see each other? Is this where Goss had an opportunity to gauge Foggo's abilities, and determine he was qualified for the CIA executive director post?

~snip~

16. That's too delicious
First: of course you'd have to be paid to sleep with Goss.

Second: After we found out he's weeding out ideological enemies of the current regime at the CIA, it's pure poetry to hear that he's been banging call girls with the Dukester.

The Goss scandal: "But they leaked!," he ejaculated.

Prosecutors May Widen Congressional-Bribe Case

Cunningham Is Suspected
Of Asking for Prostitutes;
Were Others Involved?
By SCOT J. PALTROW
April 27, 2006; Page A6

Federal prosecutors are investigating whether two contractors implicated in the bribery of former Rep. Randall "Duke" Cunningham supplied him with prostitutes and free use of a limousine and hotel suites, pursuing evidence that could broaden their long-running inquiry.

Besides scrutinizing the prostitution scheme for evidence that might implicate contractor Brent Wilkes, investigators are focusing on whether any other members of Congress, or their staffs, may also have used the same free services, though it isn't clear whether investigators have turned up anything to implicate others.


In recent weeks, Federal Bureau of Investigation agents have fanned out across Washington, interviewing women from escort services, potential witnesses and others who may have been involved in the arrangement. In an interview, the assistant general manager of the Watergate Hotel confirmed that federal investigators had requested, and been given, records relating to the investigation and rooms in the hotel. But he declined to disclose what the records show. A spokeswoman for Starwood Inc., Westin's parent company, said she wasn't immediately able to get information on whether the Westin Grand had been contacted by investigators.

Mr. Cunningham, a Republican from San Diego, was sentenced March 3 to more than eight years in federal prison after he admitted taking $2.4 million in bribes. The bribes were taken in exchange for helping executives obtain large contracts with the Defense Department and other federal agencies. Mr. Cunningham, who resigned from Congress in November, pleaded guilty to two criminal counts, one of tax evasion and one of conspiracy.


http://online.wsj.com/public/article/SB114610728002837324-nRnF_ahxSnYdWg6foBQ3_mvCwZ4_20070427.html?mod=blogs

They didn't emphasize that this is yet another Republican scandal, but at least they reported it for a change.

And I agree with the poster above regarding the MSM covering up the male prostitute sex scandal in the WH while they extensively covered the Democrat, McGreevey I believe, married and very popular with his constituency, who it was claimed, had a sexual relationship with a man. He was forced to resign his office, as I recall.

Only Democratic sex scandals matter ~
