Gannon / Guckert Rolls Along


Aren't the Dem's getting all bent out of shape over this one! I just did a "Google" om Guckert, and just about every lib/commie blog out there is going absolutely f'kin nuts!

Ann Coulter's column today goes into how Maureen Dowd threw a hissy over how Guckert got day passes while she had to wait for a permanent press pass to the White House. Typical of Dowd, she got her facts wrong, but that's never gotten in her way before.

According to Brit Hume at Fox, "CBS Senior Political Editor Dotty Lynch says that former right-wing Talon News reporter Jeff Gannon was a Republican political operative and suggests that Rove sanctioned his presence in White House briefings. She offers no proof."

Now Reps. Louise Slaughter, D-N.Y., and John Conyers, D-Mich., are writing letters to the U.S. attorney for the Northern District of Illinois, saying the Chicago attorney's office may need to subpoena Guckert's journal. According to Conyers and Slaughter's letter, Guckert had access to a memo revealing the name of CIA operative Valerie Plame.

We also have Sen. Richard Durbin, D-Ill., circulating a letter around the Senate asking President Bush "to launch an investigation into how Guckert gained access to White House press briefings over two years despite having no journalism background and using a false name."

This is all in addition to Sen. Frank Lautenberg, D-N.J Families., and others jumping up and down yelling that Talon News of GOPUSA isn't a "real" news organ but only spouts conservative bias.

Funny how they never let liberal bias slow down the access for the New York Times or CNN, CBS, etc. etc.

(Most of paragraphs 3 - 5 has been taken from this article at FoxNews).
