Bush has not explained Guckert/Gannon operated from the White House?
A long - long time ago there were news reports linking an alleged male prostitute to the present White House since Bush permitted James Guckert to use an unprecedented Secret Service-approved alias (Jeff Gannon) while having access to the White House for two years as a pool reporter serving which Gannon had advertised himself on an internet pornography sites as a male "escort" charging $200 an hour.

Does anyone know what ever happened or if this story was ever truly verified?

2. The story has been verified, many times ...
... as for an 'explanation' from the WH, don't hold your breath.

4. When you consider Bush's tendency to rub the heads of bald men,
the presence of a bald male prostitute in the WH seems all the more interesting.

8. Yeah, and that wasn't the only head that Bush was fondling
Does he use Rogaine™ when Condi masturbates him beneath the desk?

6. Two words: Ongoing Investigation
Not that there is one, mind you, but those two words can stop any further inquiries.

11. Actually, Gannon gave testimony to the Plame Leak GJ
He was last seen hanging out with the DC Freepers at the 09/24/05 DC Protest.

7. A shocking number of visits.
Edited on Sat Jan-07-06 03:14 PM by jhuth
Something very very suspicious was going on here....what was it?

"Guckert made 202 appearances at the White House during his two-year tenure with the fledging conservative websites GOPUSA and Talon News, attending 155 of 196 White House press briefings."

9. It goes back to Bush's belief in a "unitary executive"
Obviously, he admired Jeffy's unit.

12. A male prostitute serving at times as an on-line call boy
visiting the White House on dozens and dozens of occasions over a sustained period?

I'm sure Mr. Gannon simply admired the presidential portraits on the White House tours and wished to avail himself of these national treasures.

How dare we harbor cynical thoughts about his actual motives?

14. Not sure
Rep's Slaughter and Conyers were working on it I believe. They got records that showed he was there so many times and not during press conferences or any other press related events. He was even there on election night. So why was he there? If this happened in Clinton's term or any other democrat they'd be screaming and crying for an investigation. Hypocrites all of them.

15. Would love for a reporter to drop the question on Scott McClellan
to see what exactly what roll Guckert/Gannon actually played in the White House??
