Their position is the White House should dig into their pasts, their personal lives, before allowing them to participate in the press corps?

That's what the press wants.

We'll give it to 'em.

But, of course, that isn't at all what they want to do....instead, they want that "rule" applied only to those who are or claim to be conservatives; anything to silence their enemies (those are aren't anti-American).

OTOH, those who are in the limelight championing the conservative cause must know, by now, that their lives, personal and otherwise, will be scrutinized extraordinarily. They best not have questionable skeletons in their closet. Surely any conservative must be ignorant not to know that.
