Unless you know otherwise from having spoken to him, I don't see how pushing him back on the stage helps him... or us. |

When this started, DU was Googling "Jeff Gannon" and those pics never appeared. (I read their site) Then, the night before Americanblog posts their male prostitute story, Volia!, there's pics and they post on DU that the story is about to break. The Gannon story has been incremental. If a "revelation" doesn't work, add more. And THAT is what causes me to pause and question the veracity of most of this story. The first pic was supposedly from Gannons AOL homepage but it was posted on DU and had no identifers. Most overlooked that. So americanblog then finds more "pics" when the porn website story didn't do the trick. Most of this doesn't pass the "smell test".
Hint: not everything can be explained away by suspicion of nefarious activity by the Clintons or their cronies. And sometimes people who claim to be conservative do really stupid things.
No, I agree with you, all I am saying is, I don't know the whole story, and I guess I feel more comfortable not judging until I do. It irks me that the spin on all this is, that they now have a new watergate or some such nonesense, and can bring down the "Bush Regime"
Nor am I. But I might lose a little sleep if there's a public vigil for this guy and freerepublic.com appears on any of the signs.

I'd be a lot more likely to be suspicious of the accusations if Guckert would just say, "I am not and was not a male prostitute."
THAT'S PROOF?! Twit. It could be anyone.
We're going to get a bunch of people out there to support a fake reporter who publicly advertised as a male prostitute on the internet? Sorry, I'll pass...
Thank you, that's my point!! They are now on Rush, claiming he is gay. There are so many holes in that story, it really is funny!
Check out the DUmmie FUnnies for this morning.
There's a lot more pictures of him out there. In much more offensive poses. Could they all have been photoshopped and put out there before all this happened? I doubt it. Gannon hasn't denied the pictures were of him.
Let's ask our resident expert. Registered - what do you think about that Gannon photos? Thanks in advance...
Yesterday there was a thread saying they had Proof Our President is "Bi" They are also trying to connect these pron pictures to McClellen
LOL. This story doesn't need hyperbole.
Gannon hasn't denied the pictures were of him.
Gannon has an attorney who has advised him to quit talking. And thanks for pinging Registered as I didn't think of it.
I know. I posted some of the idiot DU threads here:

You've got to know when to hold 'em and know fold 'em. This mess doesn't need support and, in fact, deserves ridicule.
This is a really bad idea, and will bring disrepute on everything else you have done and will ever do.
MSM types, who are not at all happy about the rise of the average blogger, is doing its best to have people with their own websites, or blogs, from being shut out of press conferences with government officials.
Thanks for the ping. Has the press considered how they would feel if someone Gannoned them? Liberal reporters live in glass houses too.

Something a lot here should see. It was just posted on another FR thread.

I don't claim to be able to read Jeff Gannon's mind, but it seems to me that by resigning his position, shutting down his blog, and refusing to speak to the press anymore, Jeff Gannon has tried to remove himself from the stage.
