A passing thought on Gannon/Guckert

It occurred to me this morning that perhaps the male prostitute part of the story is no coincidence. Put that together with Gannon/Guckert's connection to the Texas Repub who runs GOPUSA...and it makes me wonder if that Texan was in the habit of supplying men to someone(s) in the WH carried over from Bush's Texas days.

My list, no doubt incomplete: Bush, Rove, Karen Hughes, Gonzales. Who else? I suppose we can scratch Hughes off the list :D

Ok, passing thought recorded for posterity...feel free to mock ;-)

as to why Scott McClellan was seen frequenting gay bars...maybe he was the one they sent for "search and find."

4. Gannon started covering the WH while Ari Fleischer was still in charge

On May 19, 2003 Ari Fleischer announced that he would resign during the summer, citing a desire to spend more time with his wife and to work in the private sector. He was replaced by deputy press secretary Scott McClellan on July 15, 2003.

2. I had considered the old WH days of Spence but not this angle

"wonder if that Texan was in the habit of supplying men to someone(s) in the WH carried over from Bush's Texas days."

Could a Texan from Bush's Gov days be involved in supplying male prostitutes to the WH?

All the corrupt stuff surrounded bush but was kept like a ring, around him but not to him. sounds worth looking into.

3. WhatsHisFace does like "good faces"...

Remember his comment to the Canadian prime minister awhile back about one of his assistants? "He's got a good face."

I'll share a thought I had about the creepy "Gannon": What if his goal was to attract gay professionals for the purpose of later blackmailing them; using their professional expertise (bankers, journalists, software experts) to do the WH's dirty business, knowing that they would never fight back.
