Well ..I hesitate a bit to put this up, and mods if you need to pull it, go ahead. I usually glance at DU from time to time as I think it is important to see what they are thinking about...(The Democrats must be listening to them as their BS is perculating all over the political landscape.)
Last night I wandered into a post about Guckert/Gannon .The DU link is here: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=104x3106117
They say a big story about him is about to break. The website that is after him is:
AMERICAblog.org, at http://www.americablog.org/
As best I can tell they are pursuing the gay angle. After wading through this crap what I think they have is that Guckert/Gannon had/was in a gay website involving the military a while back ...beyond that I dont know that it is any big deal...... but they sure act like it is Watergate or something.
So I am duly reporting this excursion into the dark side. I have got stuff to do today so I will not be around much . Consider yourself warned, you will need a shower if you visit these places
Houston is kind of a big place
On the Brit Hume show one night last week, they explained his connection to the "gay" sites--apparently he was doing web development and was simply registering them as part of the service. I'm not sure that means he's really gay. This blogger may be on the wrong trail--and possibly setting him/herself up for a lawsuit.
You have it right. The fringe left believes it can bring down the Bush WH with this story.
It can't, because the dots they are trying to connect, simply will not ever connect.
As Rush just mentioned, the bloggers on the Left are dragging their side to the outer limits of kookery.
Yay! for our side.
The man made money selling domain names, he was not involved in their activities. Firms and corporations may make a pitch to gays, that does not mean their corporate managements are all gay????

The Talons of Intimidation- Jeff Gannon's saga

Story file
Freedom of the press is not dead in America, but it has taken a mortal injury when the ouster of Talon news from the White House press corpse. The message from the Stone Age Press is that unless you are a Propaganda Arm of the DimRat Party you are not a reporter. Outside of Fox News, the herd mentality of DNCBS is completely opposite of the average American. This is why Gannon’s question was so pointed and relevant for today. How in the world can the President get his message to the world if the people who deliver that message disagree with it with obvious hatred??
The Stone Age Press stretching from the Old York Times to ABDNC, lost the last election every bit as much as Yaaawn Kerry. They were openly campaigning for him with every trick from phony polls to planted stories to forged documents. Wonder where all those “investigative” reporters are on themselves?? The average reporter from the 4th estate is not only a Democrat voter but a liberal activist. These people hate GW and America as much as their number one standard bearer Michael Mooreon. How can people so out of touch with America’s values and the goodness she represents, tell the world what America stands for??
Mr Gannon actually asked one of the most important questions in the American Media. As it wallows in the quagmire of the Tarpits of histoir, how can we get the truth to the American people? The success of Fox Rox, Talk Radio and Modern Media, how can the press be so blind? In reality they are a herd mentality and they believe in the safety of the herd. Polls have shown that nearly 90% of the news spewers are extreme Commucrats, and report for each others approval and believe America still thinks the way they do. What they don’t realize is that to keep the herd healthy, there must be a thinning as well as a strengthening of the herd or you end up with Rather old tired sickly Dinosaurs. That is who we have now reporting in a digital world with hammers & chisels.
Fox Rox News appears to be Right leaning since it is not an extreme Left-wing mouthpiece. To report middle of the road is so far removed from ABDNCBS that they are Right by comparison. Heck, Pravda is to the Right of the Samestream Press. For one not to attack the President or Republicans 24/7 they are so far outside of Lamestream Group think that they appear opposite to the rest of the news filters. This is why they are enjoying skyrocketing ratings and hated by the herd. We the consumers are not the uneducated bumpkins they have portrayed us for the past 20 years. Most Americans have access to the same direct news feeds that they have which allows us to compare their service both in quality and accuracy. The News business is the only service in the Country that continually insults over 50% of it’s customers.
How the Stone Agers do not cast the vote in Iraq as one of the great achievements in the history of the World is proof enough to their false reality. The fact that a Country would invade another Country and overthrew a mad dictator, not to own that Country and it’s wealth; but to free an enslaved people. Saddamn kept his slaves not with chains but fear and torture. The only reporters that got it right were the ones who were actually at the polling places. From the SAP in their cushy desks at the hotel or NY studios, it suddenly was not that important. Everything is filtered through their DNC activism and hatred for W and America. The continual comparisons to Vietnam is more a stretch than Lola Pelosi’s mask.
So Gannon’s question is: How can this President work with a press that is out of touch with reality and America?? This is the question of the 21st century. How can any company work without good information? Information is the bedrock of any business or organization and critical for a Free Country. Just as you would dump any accountant that gives you faulty information about your business, you should be able to fire or replace a herd that is lying about this Country. Rather the herd eliminates the messenger describing the Dinosaurs in the Tarpit.
Pray for W and Our Freedom Winning Troops

Transcript of Jeff Gannon's interview with Wolf Blitzer
CNN ^ | 2/10/05
Must scroll about 3/4 down the CNN link
I doubt very much that many of the leftwingers especially those in DU have ever heard of Jeff Gannon or Talon News He is a freeper btw
If the Left considers toppling Gannon to be a huge victory, it reveals how rare victories have been for their side. Even more depressing, the main reason he resigned was because of his exposed link to gay Web sites. Halcyon days for the party of tolerance.
Actually Jeff Gannon resigned because of threads he and his family has received
From what I have read on the Gannon guy....those websites are about 5 days behind the curve.
It seems that he was not those type of websites...and did not own them.
He worked for a software/internet type company. And it seems that his job had him registering different domain names.
The sites that have been mentioned did not ever run...according to Wolf Blitzer's report.
And what if he is gay? I don't think it is anyone's business. Also I don't see him flaunting it
Isn't that what the mainstream press does...EVERY DAY????? A bigger pack of whores never existed than the media.
That's why they're known as presstitutes!
I like it---thanks for the link!
(my computer seems to have an unfortunate hiccup today)
:o)
Who gives a flying bleep! So the press room was 50:1 anti-Bush, now it's 50:0. No one's gonna notice regardless.
That's not the point. We have to draw the line here. This guy was a prostitute who lied about being a journalist. What was he doing in close proximity to the president? Who vetted him?
