Well, this is an interesting development, to say the least. As I noted on Saturday, one of the honorees at CPAC was Matt Sanchez--a corporal in the Marine Corps Reserve and junior at Columbia University who spoke out about anti-war thugs on campus. He received the Jeane Kirkpatrick Academic Freedom Award and a standing ovation from the CPAC crowd at the Ronald Reagan Banquet. He has also posed with Ann Coulter and me, been published in the NYPost, and appeared on Fox News Channel's O'Reilly Factor and Hannity and Colmes. There are now tawdry rumors about Sanchez's past lighting up the left-wing blogs. Cpl. Sanchez says he will respond on his blog.
It's only a matter of time before the MSM goes nuts with the story. Report on the everyday progress in Iraq? Forget it. Sex, homosexuals, and the GOP? Get ready for wall-to-wall coverage a la Foley, Gannon, and Haggard.
Should CPAC organizers be embarrassed if the rumors about his alleged porn star past are true? Well, yes. Next time, they should do more extensive background research before handing out an honor with Jeane Kirkpatrick's name on it.
Does it take away from Sanchez's actions and words in defense of the military at Columbia? Absolutely not.
I guess we'll see who the real bigots--on both sides of the aisle--are now. I have a feeling Ann Coulter isn't the only one who'll be tossing around the f-word as the story develops.
And not just in the "schoolyard," "sophomoric" kind of way.

As we hit, the Sodomite Trail,
The MSM , keeps rolling along.
Counter march and right about,
And Anne Coulter starts to shout.

Then it's hi! hi! hee!
In the faggot artillery,
Exaggerate your numbers loud and strong,
For where'er you go,
You can always grab a blow,
That the MSMs go rolling along.
One last thing and then I need a break from this. I just found an interview online that he did in 98' (which according to a list of his video titles was near the end of his career not the beginning), where he speaks quite fondly of his work and costars. What regret?
I'd put up the links but I'll get banned; they're too explicit for words.
