I love how they got a pass on this story, long after it happened...

and one way to look at this, at least Gannon won't be lonely too long, Rove will have lots of free time with him really soon!

HOW COULD THE FBI LET "JEFF GANNON" Guckert get into the White House where he could have HARMED our elected (cough) officials.

3. What ever DID happen to this and why did it become a non-story?
I think the answer was in the video. If it had been Dems, it would have been 'out' and as Bill M said, there would have been torches carried. The Pubs got a pass on this one. HE HAD to have had connections in the WH since, as Lesley Stahl said, you HAVE to be screened by the FBI and vetted for a press pass and he even used a f'ing pseudonym. I don't think we've seen the last of this GOP deception and hypocrisy, I surely hope.

4. And why the dead silence from all those good Christians
who are crusading against the evils of homosexuality? Where the hell was PHELPS???

If anything shows up the grotesque hypocrisy of the GOP and the religious right, this story is it.

8. the media just buried it back then
it woulda been a HUGE investigation if they had any balls, and heads woulda rolled over him getting a pass, but since evil folks run corporate media, nothing was done much about it... we have so much crap going on in our lives we let some things go we shouldn't ya know??

5. Wow. Intresting that this should come out now.

Sounds like Biden isn't gonna pass up the investigation.

Amazing how uch stuff there is out there ready to blow up in the Bushies' faces. I can see a 2-year period developing in which the only distractions from Bushco scandals are more Bushco scandals.

Really-who needs impeachment if we can just keep them around as punching bags for 2 years & keep beating them up, exposing more corruption, beating them up some more, & generally letting the public see them for their real selves? By the end of that period, it will be 40 years before anybody but Rush Limbaugh & Jerry Falwell vote Puggy again.

14. Thanks for straightening me out.
I was misled by an exchange of comments between Maher & Biden that misled me about the timing. I thought Maher was suggesting that Biden could do something about it when he got back to Washington, implying Dems had power. But on rerunning it I see Biden demurring.

9. Shill. Plant. Obviously.
But why him? Especially when he didn't exactly make a secret of his "moonlighting." If all they wanted was some phony to toss the softballs, why "Jeff Gannon," when they could have employed a much safer shill? And the supposedly big question has such a simple answer that it's too easy: He got a pass from the FBI because they were TOLD he was to get a pass.

The REAL "big question" is, why "Jeff Gannon?"

10. you got it!
why him??? there's a reason behind it... I'm surprised he's still alive... really. we know deep down why it was him, he was involved with someone way up, maybe just one of them, but still, one of them is more than enough to hugely embarrass them... how the MSM let this pass is beyond me (no it isn't! lol)

15. as to the "why gannon", i think this cheney/bush hunta will not even...
consider someone without their being either, A: already in their inner circle, or: B, someone that they have 'something' on...they need to be leveraged, as to why gannon; i think you could have but a blue dot over his face and it would not have mattered...

but as an 'out there' gay manm gannon was clearly more exposed than even he realized = leveraged well in advance, you know, in case he ever got out of line they would 'snip' him, but someone beat them to him oh well

disgusting i know, but i find bush & his handlers easily that nefarious x(

11. I've been out of the loop for the past few days.
Has something surfaced about Gannon, again? Do I need to buy more popcorn?

13. Does this mean that Biden will now be holding investigations?
If he does, I might even begin to respect him a little.
