It seems to me that if staffers are facilitating meetings between the president and people who support terrorism (and the letter from Gaffney to Grover supplies that connection) there isn't a question is there?

Please keep the two points separate. Norquist was the guy who arranged the meeting you are referring to. Gaffney produced no evidence re: the White House staffer, whom Gaffney specifically NAMED.

If I were the staffer, I'd tell Gaffney to either produce the evidence or name a second.

Excuse me, but the burden of proof is on the accuser to prove the guild of the accused, not the other way around. If Gaffney has proof, he'd better produce it.

Right now, at least two Freepers who were there have backed up Norquist's side of the story.

Slander is NOT an acceptable tactic. And right now, Gaffney has apperently slandered a White House staffer. Norquist has proceeded to call him on it.
