Gannon: I’m ‘the most honest’ White House reporter.
Jeff Gannon, the infamous former male escort who for two years gained a White House press pass using a pseudonym, is releasing a book next week, in which he chronicles what he sees as liberal bias in the White House press corps. “In my mind, I was the most honest reporter [in the White House press corps] because I was absolutely transparent with regards to my [conservative] perspective,” Gannon told the Washington Examiner. “My work has never been discredited.”

If he “spilled the beans” I’d be tempted to lay out a couple of shekels for this.
August 28th, 2007 at 2:27 pmMy work has never been discredited.â€
Really but your name has, Mr. James Guckert
August 28th, 2007 at 2:30 pmHonest except about his name, and occupation.
August 28th, 2007 at 2:33 pmHa ha ha… gods, that guy makes me laugh… the King George’s own sex toy the most honest?… oh gods… I can’t breath, I’m laughing so hard…
August 28th, 2007 at 2:34 pmHow is Mr. Gannon making a living? Is he even employable?
I’m concerned about his welfare.
August 28th, 2007 at 2:34 pmThe only reason that whore hasn’t been discredited is cause nobody has ever heard of the source he wrote for.
August 28th, 2007 at 2:35 pmHis work was nothing but cutting and pasting without sourcing—sometimes known as plaigarism. He couldn’t even recognize a Limbaugh joke and would report it as true.
His education was as a PE teacher. His work experience was as alcholic beverage deliverer.
August 28th, 2007 at 2:35 pmAnd Craig is the straightest Senator.
August 28th, 2007 at 2:36 pmNice logic:
August 28th, 2007 at 2:36 pm“I’m conservative and I have a conservative bias, but since I admit it, I am better than everyone else.”
Apparently escorting isn’t paying the bills anymore and this db had to write a book.
And Gonzales was the finest AG.
August 28th, 2007 at 2:36 pmHis real job was blowing the WH under cover of reporting
August 28th, 2007 at 2:36 pmAnd GW is the best President
August 28th, 2007 at 2:37 pmI believe he was the only “reporter” for Talon News Service and they closed when the scandal came out.
August 28th, 2007 at 2:37 pmHe liked to imply that he was ex-military, but that was a lie.
August 28th, 2007 at 2:38 pmin his mind he is 8″ cut
August 28th, 2007 at 2:38 pmSpeaking of the most honest reporters in Washington, I’m sure Stewart and Oliver are grateful to this guy: expect to see an entire Daily Show segment built around this.
August 28th, 2007 at 2:40 pmThey probably had coded words that Bush or staff would say during a press conference to let Gannon know what they wanted that day - 2 BJs. Gannon probably responded with coded questions indicating the going price that day.
August 28th, 2007 at 2:40 pmCue daryll, defending Mr Gucker/Gannon…
August 28th, 2007 at 2:41 pmSee, if he really cared he would have contacted Sen. Craig and showed him ways to relieve himself without having to spend time in Airport restrooms!
August 28th, 2007 at 2:42 pmThat would have been Patriotic!!!!!
He says he’s been writing his book for 5 years and hasn’t interviewed anyone - just uses the internet as his source material -
sounds like his reporting - totally fake
August 28th, 2007 at 2:44 pmHonesty in being a blatant Republican shill, and totally dishonest in every other aspect of his life.
August 28th, 2007 at 2:44 pmHomosexuals Larry Criag, Gannon, Barney Frank, Democrat homosexual Congressman Gerry Studs, Foley really are peverted.
August 28th, 2007 at 2:44 pmPer Gannon’s rule, Dick Cheney is the most honest DC denizen. Let’s face it, he never even remotely attempts to spin something as truth.
August 28th, 2007 at 2:45 pmCheney just in your face lips all curled throws out his big fatties with not even a wave at the truth.
“I’m lying”he says.”You know it, I know it, piss off.”
That’s honesty in DC.
Funny how he and Ari are in the news after both took long absences from pubic er public. So now the question is when will Scott McClellan appear on TV?
August 28th, 2007 at 2:45 pm“My work has never been discredited.†Well, open his “escort” records and see if he ever had to give a refund for failure to “rise to the occasion”. . . .
I’m sure, as an up-standing Republican, conservative closet-case, he’s quite proud of his past actions. Why not show off all the pics of him on his knees “praying”?
August 28th, 2007 at 2:45 pmThe perversion is in the lying and deception not in the consensual acts
August 28th, 2007 at 2:46 pmHey leave us good homosexuals out of this please.
August 28th, 2007 at 2:47 pmThe Tolerance of the Left!
August 28th, 2007 at 2:48 pmYou guys are a self righteous hypocrites!
So, “Jeff”, since you are so “honest”, care to tell us what you did for the 80+ nights that you DIDN’T sign out of the White House??
The White House trumped the Secret Service, and said that the records are NO LONGER subject to public disclosure…
August 28th, 2007 at 2:48 pmI’m guessing what he’s saying is that everyone knows HE’S a whore, but none of the rest of the White House Press core is admitiing it. So that makes him more honest than the rest.
August 28th, 2007 at 2:50 pm“the most honest…”
?
August 28th, 2007 at 2:51 pmTales of a 1,000 and one nights
If Gannon could write - he should write that book.
He could show that the WH is stuffed with closeted homosexuals starting with the President
August 28th, 2007 at 2:51 pm- and two of the most prominent of them have just exited stage left
he lied about who he was or was he saying all “cons” are fags?
August 28th, 2007 at 2:52 pmGannon: “Mr. President, what makes you so great?”
Who can discredit that? Top-notch reporting there poser-boy.
August 28th, 2007 at 2:54 pmHis work has never been discredited because there’s no one to complain to about a mediocre blowjob. Although maybe we could set up an agency so the Rethugs could make anonymous complaints.
August 28th, 2007 at 2:55 pmSo, “Jeffâ€, since you are so “honestâ€, care to tell us what you did for the 80+ nights that you DIDN’T sign out of the White House??
The White House trumped the Secret Service, and said that the records are NO LONGER subject to public disclosure…

August 28th, 2007 at 2:56 pmNow wouldn’t JimmyJeff’s book be just the PERFECT impeachment present for the Decider?
August 28th, 2007 at 2:57 pmGannon: “Mr. President, what makes you so great?â€
President: See me later Jeff and I’ll show you
August 28th, 2007 at 2:58 pm# 6 The only reason that whore hasn’t been discredited is cause nobody has ever heard of the source he wrote for.
I think it was called the “Talon News.” I only know this because I’ve become entertained by the the “newer site,” GOPUSA. Check it out if you haven’t…pretty funny. I done got banned.
August 28th, 2007 at 2:58 pmComment by Arn Gunnutes — August 28, 2007 @ 2:48 pm
Great question Arn. I would like to know why as well.
August 28th, 2007 at 2:59 pmI agree with Gannon on one thing. He holds today’s typical conservative perspective - the perspective of a gay-bottom male escort. At least he’s come to grips with his “conservatism”. If Bush had, instead of trying to prove his “manliness” in his designer fatigues, we wouldn’t be at war today.
August 28th, 2007 at 3:00 pmPresident: I’ll take some questions now. Jeff you look like you have a big one.
Jeff: Mr. President what makes you so great?
President: Good question Jeff. I could not answer that in a few minutes. See me later for the details.
August 28th, 2007 at 3:01 pmWow, this guy is as crazy as the trolls around here. Why are “conservatives” such screwed up people?
August 28th, 2007 at 3:03 pmI believe his pseudonym was “ronjazz”.
August 28th, 2007 at 3:05 pmHis work has never been discredited because there’s no one to complain to about a mediocre blowjob. Although maybe we could set up an agency so the Rethugs could make anonymous complaints.

August 28th, 2007 at 3:06 pmRovian recommendations for Bush on how to handle questions about sex and the White House
Reporter: In light of President Clinton’s sexual peccadillos, what do you have to say about having sex with women in the White House?
President: Well, I can say with confidence that the only woman i’ve had sex with in the White House is Laura, my wife.
Reporter: Thank you for clarifying that.
August 28th, 2007 at 3:07 pmRovian recommendations for Bush on how to handle questions about sex and the White House
“Just follow the lead of the Clinton administration and lie…or stuff the relevant documents down your pants and in your socks”.

Right. Because it would SEEM that Bush or someone in his group was using a GAY PROSTITUTE in the White House.
Probably Bush, the “husband” of Condi…
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
August 28th, 2007 at 3:10 pmConservatives must be from Bizarro World.
A guy who operates under a false name for years considers himself the most honest reporter. The Cheney Administration denies saying things which are ON TAPE. Congressmen scream and holler about the dangers of homosexuality and then leave work to hook up with male prostitutes and solicit sex in public bathrooms.
Good god these people are sick.
August 28th, 2007 at 3:10 pmCertainly, homosexuals are not immoral and do not deserve scorn.
August 28th, 2007 at 3:12 pmIt is the perverts, the deviants, the pedophiles, the adulterers, the self-appointed moral arbiters for the rest of us who deserve the hell they inevitably bring upon themselves.
I hear Craig is going to address the press today.
I also heard that his sexuality has been a well-known “secret” in D.C. and there are a few others who don’t come out because their political life depends on living a lie: McConnell, Graham. (Rep. Drier is commonly recognized as in the closet.)
We all learned early on that “honesty is the best policy,” but hypocrites cannot abide that.
If you are not honest, you have to be a very good liar - that takes up a lot of energy, planning and forethought. Be honest - it’s easier.

Maybe you should remove your tin foil had and reread my post. The operative word there was ‘woman’. The only ‘woman’ he had sex with. Get it???
If not, just put your hat back on and go back to watching Hannity
August 28th, 2007 at 3:12 pmGood god these people are sick.
What? Are you some sort of Bible-thumping rightwing hick?
August 28th, 2007 at 3:12 pmPresident: Well, I can say with confidence that the only woman i’ve had sex with in the White House is Laura, my wife.
Reporter: Thank you for clarifying that.
Comment by Amyl Nitrate — August 28, 2007 @ 3:07 pm
Notice the operative “woman” here, which probably makes that statement true. (Unless Jeffy G. in a dress would count as a “woman”.)
August 28th, 2007 at 3:13 pm“Just follow the lead of the Clinton administration and lie…or stuff the relevant documents down your pants and in your socksâ€.

Or LIE about the exposure of a CIA WMD expert. And obstruct justice like Libby.
The “president” will pardon you.
Just like his DADDY pardoned the Iran/Contra TERRORISTS and INTERNATIONAL TERRORIST Orlando Bosch…
August 28th, 2007 at 3:13 pmWhat was his website called again? “hotmilitarystud.com” or something like that?
August 28th, 2007 at 3:14 pmThe only ‘woman’ he had sex with. Get it???
Yeah yeah, I get it! Humorous AND witty, you should write a book.
Im laughing on the inside…really I am.
August 28th, 2007 at 3:14 pmBe honest - it’s easier
Except closeted homosexuals are easier to control with money. Ever wonder why there are so many in the closet on the Hill. They’ve traded truth for power and money.
August 28th, 2007 at 3:15 pmThe “president†will pardon you.
Have you bothered to research who Clinton pardoned? No? Go figure.
August 28th, 2007 at 3:16 pmI’m saying conservatives are a bunch of pole-smoking closet cases.

Clinton didn’t pardon anyone IN HIS ADMINISTRATION. Much less someone who could IMPLICATE HIM in a treasonous crime! Jeez, when will you repugs learn the difference. Yeah, yeah Clinton got a bj and pardoned a millionaire. At least he didn’t wipe his ass with the Constitution and put national security at risk you idiot!

Whoops - he did do that
August 28th, 2007 at 3:26 pmReality - Gannon/Guckert is a lying prostitute, non-journalist and frequent White House visitor who won’t comment on his special visits.
Troll Reality - Clinton did it.
No wonder people are jumpring off the sinking S.S. Conservatard.

Wrong, TREASON-breath!!
Marc Rich, a Rapeublican, whose lawyer was Scooter Libby, for one.
And I’m glad you realize that DADDY Bush pardoned the Iran/Contra TERRORISTS and INTERNATIONAL TERRORIST Orlando Bosch.
August 28th, 2007 at 3:31 pmJapaner is a toe-tapper.
Oh he’s definitely posting wirelessly from Stall #3 at O’Hare.
August 28th, 2007 at 3:31 pmIn my mind, I’m a sex god and a billionaire.
August 28th, 2007 at 3:38 pmHere it comes….Unbelievably, as if on cue, Gannon/Guckert, the male prostitute comes forth! For openers, what’s with the name change by Bush from Guckert to Gannon? Too gutteral, perhaps? And since when is a porno star a member of the white house press corps?
Here comes the avalanche of the reason why Bush suddenly classified the white house visitor logs……..as we’ve thought…..it’s all coming crashing down.
August 28th, 2007 at 3:41 pmThis may be the worst week of the Bush white house yet!
August 28th, 2007 at 3:42 pmIt’s Cheney’s house, I just live in it.
August 28th, 2007 at 3:44 pm“the most honest reporter?” - is he kidding? Using a pseudonym somehow displays a level of honesty? Au contraire, Jeffy Lube. You can bet that there’s more coming down the pike for Bush to be concerned about. Maybe Jeffy Lube had an “in” with Gonzo? Who knows…but the coincidence is rather astounding, isn’t it?

The Washington Examiner is a rag that is given out free.
It’s a Right Wing Tabloid that has day old news.
It’s delivered free up and down the streets of many households here in DC.
No one reads it.
Most neighbors just leave the paper in it’s plastic bag and throw it away.
The paper piles up in front of rented houses and group homes.
The poor woman at the top of the Metro stop can’t even give them away.
funny how THIS is the paper he gives an interview to.
.
August 28th, 2007 at 3:56 pm“in his mind” he’s the most honest reporter. Says it all.
August 28th, 2007 at 4:06 pmHey Guggert, your 15 minutes are up.
August 28th, 2007 at 4:21 pmThe people deserve to know the whole truth about Jeffy Lube regardless of whom it will indict. It’s clear that he made close to a hundred nocturnal trips to the white house when there was no legitimate meeting taking place for the press corp. When people began to see that JeffyLube entered but failed to exit, King George decided to make the visitor logs classified. hmmmmm???? What is he hiding?
Maybe Jeffy’s “tell all book” will be the final indicting piece for impeachment of both Bush and Cheney? Inquiring minds want to know and will learn the truth at long last.
August 28th, 2007 at 4:42 pmTo imply that someone who has allowed his name to be changed from Guckert to Gannon and to be added to the press corp without credentials is the “most honest” one around is truly a remakable admission on it’s face. Perhaps he’s accurate since he’s clearly operating in a den of iniquity and wolves in sheep’s clothing….smoke & mirrors. If JeffyLube Guckert-Gannon is the best they’ve got, we’re in heap big trouble in this country.
August 28th, 2007 at 4:45 pmThe confidence and disconnect from reality is astounding.
August 28th, 2007 at 4:51 pmHonest

ho ho, in jeff’s mind being paid to have sex doesn’t make him a whore either
August 28th, 2007 at 6:33 pmHi I’m Jeff Gannon from “the Flaming Truth” I had a few queth-chunssssss.
August 28th, 2007 at 6:57 pmPeople have a right to demand that their congressman aren’t having sex in public restrooms. I’m gay and I concede that.
That said… anyone else who wants to have sex in public restrooms, it’s up to them. How many heteros get a kick from doing similar things in forbidden places. The MCA in Chicago has security cam footage of straight couples doing it on the steps of the museum after hours. Why is it wrong for gays, but dismissed with a wink and a chuckle for heteros?
August 28th, 2007 at 7:03 pmOh I have to:
