Bringing honor and integrity back to the White House
Digby discusses the issue that is "threatening the GOP" - and how the pathetic, cowering Dems are still "ignoring the naked, gay conservative prostitute in the middle of the family values White House living room."

And Eric Boehlert in Salon asks, "Why was a gay male prostitute given access to the White House press room after being turned down for Capitol Hill press credentials?"

Addressing the question of why Guckert's personal life matters, [AmericaBlog's John] Aravosis wrote, "This is the Conservative Republican Bush White House we're talking about. It's looking increasingly like they made a decision to allow a hooker to ask the President of the United States questions. They made a decision to give a man with an alias and no journalistic experience access to the West Wing of the White House on a 'daily basis.'"

Whether news that Guckert was able to go from posting his gay male escort services online to being ushered into the White House under a phony name on behalf of a fake news organization - and was never asked to pass an FBI background check - constitutes a real "story" among the Republican Party faithful, or the mainstream press corps, remains to be seen.

Puh - the "mainstream media' has already choked, much like Gannon with a big hot Rovian dick in his mouth:

Following a meeting [Tuesday] between the leadership of the White House Correspondents' Association and Bush's press secretary, Scott McClellan, neither side seemed to be in a hurry to alter the current system, which has drawn criticism amid the recent "Jeff Gannon" scandal.

After a 30-minute sit-down with McClellan, WHCA President Ron Hutcheson said he believed the current system was fine and hesitated to have the correspondents' association play a bigger role in distributing press passes.
