Thus a phony journalist planted by a Republican operation, used by the White House press secretary to interrupt questions from the press corps, called on by the president for a safe question, protected from FBI vetting by the press office, disseminating innuendo and smears about critics and opponents of the administration, some of them gay-baiting, was unmasked not only as a hireling and fraud but as a gay prostitute, with enormous potential for blackmail....Excellent point from Blumenthal. Gannon's sexual orientation isn't an issue, at the same time Gannon's administration buddies are off deleting the word "gay" from federal information about suicide prevention. This administration couldn't care less about gay kids commiting suicide, but we're supposed to look the other way when they coddle gay hustlers, and gay hustlers coddle them?
Lifting the heavy Puritan curtain draping Bush's Washington reveals enlightening scenes of its decadent anthropology. Even as Guckert's true colors were revealed, the administration issued orders that the words "gay," "lesbian," "bisexual" and "transgender" be removed from the program of a federally funded conference on suicide prevention. But the transparent hypocrisy of conservative "values" hardly deters a ruthless government.
Family values, my ass. Time for the Bush administration to start living by their own family values. Explain to use why the president called on a gay hooker.
