[maxrandb]

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1345967/posts

All FReepers and lurkers in good standing are invited to join the D.C. Chapter in our demonstration this evening. Details in the following press release:

DEMONSTRATION IN SUPPORT OF JEFF GANNON
&
THE FIRST AMENDMENT

WHEN: FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 18, 2005, 6 P.M. TO 8 P.M.
WHERE: THE SIDEWALK BY MONICA’S GATE,
AKA THE NORTHWEST VISITORS ENTRANCE
THE WHITE HOUSE, 1600 PENNSYLVANIA AVE., NW, WASHINGTON, D.C.

Silly Freakers,

I wish I was free to be there. Any DC area DUer's plan to make life a little hard on the Freakers? How many Porta-Potties will be wasted on this little freak show.

Might be good for a laugh, but I bet half of the ones that show up will have WH Daily Press Passes.

[Cooley Hurd]

1. They've got some interesting pics for their placards...

...courtesy of Bulldog.;)

[sniffa]

2. do they have enough porta-potties?

[meganmonkey]

66. I hope so, I am sure they are pretty full of

well, you know :P

[rocktivity]

77. Remember when more porta-potties would show up than them?

:headbang:
rocknation

[meganmonkey]

80. That's pretty hilarious

I think it may be my new desktop background :D

[LinuxInsurgent]

88. everyone at this rally

1) better not be considering themselves a Christian, since Christ specifically said "Blessed Are the Peacemakers"...supporting a war in a rally is hardly the way to be a "peacemaker".

2) They got their tickets to hell ready...just waiting for their soul to move to the next stage.

[Zuni]

92. I wish C-Span still broadcast their loony conventions

these folks are nuts. I used to love watching their rallies

[CAcyclist]

107. It would be so funny if

some "freepers" came bearing pictures of some of his sites.

[FreedomAngel82]

124. That is so funny

These people are weird. :eyes:

[gorbal]

158. I think they are still upstaged by the crappers

Somebody should call those "God Kills F''s Dead" fundies and tell them there is a protest in support of a homosexual they can ransack. Let the right fight themselves for a change. (you know they love seeing us battle with each other.)

[AuntiBush]

174. Luv the Pict!

Helps to see so little of the NIT-WITS at times like this. Thanks!

[goodboy]

85. and ashtrays, and spittoons...(nt)

[LinuxInsurgent]

91. ahahahah....

and Banjos..don't forget the Banjos!

And the Confederate flags....

[inslee08]

3. For some reason, I doubt that

I doubt that this will bring them good press. If they want to protest on behalf of such an asshole, making complete fools of themselves, they can go right ahead. We won't stop them.

A counter-protest would be nice though.

[Zuni]

13. If you read the whole press release

it is an attack on the Clinton administration, as if it was the Clintons that were still in the WH.

I doubt anyone will take this demonstration seriously.

[WildClarySage]

37. Trust freeps to find a way to blame

Gukert's presence on the Clenis.

[jdj]

83. This is why the WA Blade needs to post that pic of Gannon and friend

with Gannon touching his Genis. This is from a thread I started earlier that dropped. Rove has been byatch-slapping us for over 4 years now with images because he knows that images are better than text, and it's a mistake to respond to this story with just text, here what I posted:

"Should the Washinton Blade publish the other Gannon porno pic?

Edited on Fri Feb-18-05 12:22 PM by jdj
http://www.washblade.com/2005/2-18/news/national/report...

This the caption below a photo of a seated Gannon:

".... In the other photo, which the Blade is not publishing, the man who appears to be Guckert is embracing another man while exposing his penis."

Since the Aravosis report, two sources have confirmed to the Washington Blade that Guckert attended a December 1998 Christmas party near Leesburg, Va., that “always turns into an orgy toward the end.”

I personally would like a pixelated version of this plastered all over the internet, to show this man was not just a pin-up, but was the real deal. I'm really sad for him. However, it needs to be driven home that it IS NOT POSSBLE for the white house to know of the fact that he had an ALIAS, and a TAX EVASION CONVICTION, yet not know that he was gay. No way, no how. They allowed the alias because they knew the bloggers would expose Guckert's tax suit once they heard his softball questions. They were close to this man. He is an insider. I just want the world to know he is a gay, or bisexual, insider as well, so that it can be driven home that homosexuality and liberalism are not synonyms and can be quite exclusive of each other. This is important to the democratic party, since repukes like to pretend they don't have any gays.\

Well the picture is out there somewhere. Maybe it will surface."

Who ever said a picture is worth a thousand words is not lying. We need to make posters of this pic, and spread them far and wide, with the caption, "The New Face Of the Republican Party."

[MsMagnificent]

63. Counter-protest? Counter-glee you mean!

Just stand and laugh LONG (8" Cut!) & HARD (Top! No kisses!? Yes kisses? --Only his Bulldog knows for sure!) at their foolish Family Value's asses!

No hetero blow-job's for Bill, NOOOOO

but HOT, TOP, BUTTFUCKIN' HOE-DOWN MALE4MALE MILITARY ACTION at $200- an hour?
Well WHY NOT?! As they say in Texas: YEEE-HAWWW!

But read his Verification section -- his clients, even his high echelon REAL Military clients are very pleased!
Also note the special section on reduction of *Santorum* -- eat light day before, 2 hrs before escort use enema!

THAT, Gannon/Gluckert's and his profession
THEY are protesting about?!

--and this guy CONSTANTLY in the White House,
--and this guy in on the Plame outing, this guy who announces 4 hours before even the major networks know about Shock & Awe?
Where did Jeff/James GET that information? I really want to know whose pillow he was talking on!

This anti-gay, anti-gay-rights, *Moral*, Party just chock-full of *Defense of Marriage*, *Family Value Goodness*?!
They THREATENED we Dem's would BAN THE BIBLE and ALLOW 2 MEN TO WED, remember?

I'd MUCH rather see 2 men WED than have to hear about Bulldog's M4MiltaryM sex descriptions again!

This Freeper "Protest", replete with innate hypocrisy and stupidity is --almost, but not quite-- unbelievable.

Pardon me while I :puke:
(Sorry, don't mean to offend any gay men out there -- but in my defense I'd have the exact same reaction no matter what gender the poked butt was! Don't understand it, esp. as being sexy... mine has always been one-way only! : )

[LiberallyInclined]

67. link?

please?

[Zuni]

94. I think there is something called Americas blog that has his

web sites on there.

They are really grotesque, and are alot like what she is describing.

[MsMagnificent]

143. His "Reviews"

http://www.male4malescorts.com/reviews/bulldogdc.html

A small portion:

I am versatile, 40+ year old career military man. I am used to being in command, so it was good for me to give control over to someone else for a change. I like to suck a masculine man's dick and get fucked hard. I did all of that several times that weekend. Because of my position I cannot find someone compatible in the usual ways. I am luck y to have found this jarhead.

I'm looking for the 'helpful hints from Bottom-boy'...

Edit:

OH YEAH, PLEASE *NOTE*

On this site:
http://web.archive.org/web/20010501080349/www.xtrememale.com/USMCPT/index2.html

Note his Webring "Hot Male Escorts" is OWNED by "Bulldog"
same email addy: [e-mail]

[Ian David]

102. Does he actually use the word "Santorum"?

[MsMagnificent]

140. No, that was my word; but what he was describing

...so as to get as little of (Santorum) as possible... you know, a clean, kinda, buttfuck?

Yuck. OK no more...

[RaleighNCDUer]

78. As they say, never interfere

when your opponant is trying to shoot himself in the foot.

[aquart]

82. What are they supporting?

The freedom to give male prostitutes government secrets?

Or simply the right to prostitution?

[Julius Civitatus]

96. BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!

Republicans for gay prostitution!!

They chant:

"What do we want?"

"Gay prostitution!

"When do we want it?"

"Now!"

[crispini]

148. ROFL!

Counterprotestors should carry signs:

"I don't leave marks -- just impressions!"

This is the Best. Story. Evah!

[ClayZ]

137. Anybody have male prostitute costumes?

And whips?

[Hobarticus]

4. YESS!!! Make up some press passes, and hand them out to passers-by!!

Hi-larious!!!!

[bloom]

6. Someone could have flyers for his prostitution business as well

Might as well help him out! :)

[Hobarticus]

7. BWAH-hahahaha! I love evil DUers at play!!!

[K8-EEE]

9. Yeah!!! Somebody Go Pass Out The Naked Bulldog Photo!

I'm sure he'll pick up a lot of business, he seems to cater to creepy freeper types with military fantasies. Ish!

[janx]

56. Which one? Which photo? There are so many to choose from!

The spread-eagle one might be sufficient. But the ones of Bulldog pissing, or perhaps the one of him bending over a nightstand might do the, um...TRICK.

[tsuki]

18. Great Idea!

on edit: With the Barbarini Faun as the press pic.

[Hugin]

5. I'd go too...

If only to find out what the "crowd" is being paid.

I could use the money to donate to DU. ;)

*ca-ching*

[Zuni]

8. this is too funny

(Washington) The D.C. Chapter of Free Republic, an independent grassroots organization, will be holding a demonstration at the White House this evening in support of former Talon News White House Correspondent Jeff Gannon and the rights of other reporters to do their jobs without fear of being destroyed by the political establishment.

The group will also be bringing attention to several First Amendment-related issues pertaining to the current imbroglio. Among them are the unconstitutional efforts of Democratic congressmen to determine who is a reporter and efforts by the establishment media to shut out Internet-based news sites from having access to government press conferences.

Kristinn Taylor, Co-Leader of the D.C. Chapter of Free Republic, issued the following statement: “It is common knowledge that Jeff Gannon was singled out for personal destruction for the crime of asking a question of the President of the United States at a press conference that was insulting to Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton.

“The Clintonista slime machine, led by former Clinton White House Chief of Staff John Podesta’s Media Matters for America, went into high gear and made an example of Mr. Gannon to any reporter who might dare to challenge Sen. Clinton’s credibility in her anticipated 2008 presidential candidacy.

“What was done to Mr. Gannon was the Clinton impeachement era Ellen Romesch strategy played out for all concerned parties to see. The D.C. Chapter of Free Republic will be out demonstrating for the rights of Mr. Gannon and all other reporters to exercise their rights without fear of personal destruction.

[bryant69]

11. The Political Estabilshment?

Man the bloggers really have come up in the world.

Bryant
Check it out --> http://politicalcomment.blogspot.com

[Zuni]

17. Yeah. Kos and DU are equivalent to the Bush admin now

Bush and his RW admin are not the political establishment somehow, even though they run the government.

[FreedomAngel82]

127. I think they really are clueless

They don't get that "Talon news" is so phoney and fake and "Gannon" isn't even a reporter! What a bunch of losers.

[Norquist Nemesis]

15. I looked up Freeper in the dictionary

(see hypocrites)

[Hugin]

24. Yeah, the only people in a deeper circle of hell...

than them is the CMC fraudsters.

See:

[RBHam]

28. How long did it take these guys to dream up their hell?

And how did they have such an intimate knowledge of all layers?

[mcscajun]

95. that's Dante's Inferno Version of Hell

Just for clarification. :)

[aquart]

86. So freepers get the 8th ring of Hell. Good to know.

[ClayZ]

138. Urban Dictionary definitionof Freeper......

http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=freeper&r=f

1. Freeper
Right-wing political activist. So-called, because it is the nickname of the denizens of the ultra-right wing Web site FreeRepublic.com. Similar to "ditto-head."

Also spelled FReeper
Bill thinks that anyone who opposes President Bush should be thrown in jail. He's a total Freeper.
Source: PW, Apr 8, 2004

[Hugin]

22. This is interesting...

"Clinton White House Chief of Staff John Podesta’s Media Matters for America"

Does Podesta really have anything to do with Media Matters? I thought
it was David Brock's baby?

[Norquist Nemesis]

27. Podesta is Center for American Progress

http://www.americanprogress.org/site/pp.asp?c=biJRJ8OVF&b=6478

http://www.americanprogress.org/site/pp.asp?cid=%7BE9245FE4-9A2B-43C7-A521-5D6FF2E06E03%7D&bin_id=%7B41E662CF-E379-427B-971D-127ADB779B1C%7D

[Griffy]

93. LOL .. they cant even get simple facts correct!

freeps are sad humans, to be so wrong and think your so right. Chase those windmills freeps!

[sadiesworld]

105. Might of sounded a tad odd:

"...Media Matters' David Brock, a gay, former republican who fled the party in disgust..."

[Norquist Nemesis]

190. No, Podesta is Center for American Progress

not Media Matters

[CatBoreal]

26. Imbroglio???

Dear Lord and Lady! They know how to use a thesaurus??

Who'd have thunk it?

[KayLaw]

51. Terrible writing skills

I'm really not sure what Kristinn is trying to say.

:freak:

[LondonReign2]

76. What the fuck is it witht hese people and the Clintons?!?!?

Rhetorical question, I know, but Jeebus Criminy!

[FreedomAngel82]

128. I think they

secretly love him. ;)

[FighttheFuture]

170. Jealousy , Envy and Anger..

Let's face it, Clinton was an imposing and impressive figure with a magnetic personality and brilliant mind who worked his way from poverty and a broken home. He was also the last legitimate President this country had, bitch-slapping the Repugs at every turn. He also got the chicks. Something these Republican losers will only do by punching them out and dragging them back to their caves.

Freepers, what an incredible bunch of loosers! Even Hannity is trying to distance himself from them. That should tell you something! Now, with Gannon, they show their self-hating public-homophobic, closet-homosexual side. Dysfunction cubed.

[Career Prole]

99. Imbroglio? Hoo, baby...this is still the undercard.

Wait 'til you see the main event!
Buh-bye, Chimp! :hi: :bounce: :hi: :bounce: :hi:

[solinvictus]

108. Clinton???!!!??

These people are still bringing him up?!? WTF? Do they not know that the Big Dawg's been out of office for over 5 years now???

[Zuni]

113. They are like former jocks with no life

who are constantly dreaming of the glory days of their youth

[Branjor]

125. You mean...

a little over 4 years.

[Tsiyu]

177. So it WASN'T the Right Wing Neo-Cons who were

telling us that roving hordes of gay people were taking over and destrpying the very moral fabric of America? It hasn't been the RW nutjobs putting gay marriage on the front burner of issues in the latest election? It wasn't the RW fucknuts telling us that 911 was god's punishment for homosexuality?

It was the CLINTONS???????!!!!!!!!!!!??????????

Well, who knew?

THESE DESPERATE PEOPLE WOULD BE HILARIOUS IF THEY WERE NOT SO DAMNED SAD.

[Misunderestimator]

187. LMAO... They think it's HILLARY'S FAULT?!?

Too effing funny! Sure, Hillary persuaded him to pose in several pornographic pictures and helped him establish his internet military prostitution business... now we know what Whitewater was really all about!!

[bperci108]

195. Huh?

(quote)

“The Clintonista slime machine, led by former Clinton White House Chief of Staff John Podesta’s Media Matters for America.."

(end quote)


I didn't know David Brock worked for "John Podesta's Media Matters for America" site.

:eyes:

I guess we all look alike to the RadCons....

[Bethany Rockafella]

10. Be sure to bring blow ups of the Bulldog pics!

ha!

[brooklynite]

12. What I would do...

is walk through the "crowd" with a sign asking for donations for Gannon's unpaid tax bill. You'll pick up a nice bit of change from the Freepers and provide a reminder of Gannon's checkered past to the audience.

[RBHam]

14. Irony, meet Incredulity...

(Sputter)....

(?)(!)

[ljm2002]

16. We should have a counter demonstration...

...complete with large placards with some of the explicit photos of JimJeff on them. You could even blot out the "naughty bits" to make sure that the photos can be shown on the nightly news -- just to remind the "morals" voters just who and what this demonstration is about.

[bloom]

25. sometimes a little pretending can be a good thing

like -> www.theyesmen.org

[mainer]

57. No, don't do a counter protest -- join 'em!

I think there need to be hordes of "freepers" at the protest, supporting the right for hotmilitarystuds to hang out in the White House. it'd be great publicity for FR.

[janx]

61. YES. And bring Hannity signs. Hannity loves the freepers!

;-)

[deacon]

185. how 'bout, www.hotmilitarystuds.com- sponsored by Free Republic

[Tyrone Slothrop]

79. That would be great!!!

Have a LOT of people there - enough to get some press and have them all marching around with GIANT signs of the naked Gannon (blur out the penis, maybe) saying "Keep this man in the White House!!!", "Keep Gannon close to Bush", "Leave our people alone!!".


"LIBERALS: LEAVE OUR MALE HOOKERS ALONE!!!"

[Zuni]

This Freeper seems to get it

To: kristinn
"This isn't about putting a stamp of approval on whatever the liberals are accusing Jeff Gannon of doing before he became a reporter,"
You mean being a prostitute?
Although I agree he has the right to pursue any job that will bring him happiness, I have to believe that if WE found out that some MSM reporter had been a fomer? prostitute....the guns would be blazing.

73. Damn STRAIGHT Their Guns Would Be Blazing....

At least there are a couple who admit that -- their "moral superiority" is a total sham, none of it applies to one of THEM no matter what kind of shit they're messed up in.

[FourStarDemocrat]

"Former" prostitute?

I think the site's been up until very recently..

I say we create a "S&M Military Escorts Against Discrimination" group and show up there in support of the freepers. ;)

[FourStarDemocrat]

154. "Former" prostitute?

I think the site's been up until very recently..

I say we create a "S&M Military Escorts Against Discrimination" group and show up there in support of the freepers. ;)

[yella_dawg]

19. I wonder if more than six

freepers will show up for this one. Their "protests" have been a bit thin of late.

[janx]

58. Twelve, tops. And their "protests" have always been thin.

;-)

[Ready4Change]

20. So, Clintons problem was...

From reading this Freeper defense of Gannon, I can only conclude that Clintons problem stems from the fact that he wasn't having sex with a male homosexual prostitute posing as a member of our military? I mean, from my first impression I would have thought that would have been MORE offensive to the Freepers.

And apparently Dan Rathers problem was that he didn't post enough nude erotic photos of himself on the web? Oh, and that he has, like, 20 years more journalistic experience than "Gannon."

What a bunch of hypocritical blowhards.

:eyes:

[tsuki]

23. Blaming Clinton for everything is getting old even for some of my

Republican (not neocon) friends.

[Carni]

55. I know a lot of former Republicans that not only can't stand bush

In hindsight they have a new found respect for Clinton and wish we had him back.

The freepers have made such a lifestyle out of Clinton hating that the more they say the better Clinton looks!

[FreedomAngel82]

129. That's always nice to know

I so dislike how they blame him for EVERYTHING. It's like he was Superman or something. :shrug:

[jbnow]

162. Maybe they think Clinton

was a hypocrite because he espouses equal rights, but only had sex with women.
Clinton showed bias against sex with men.
That is unamerican.

[blm]

21. Freeper sign: REPUBLICANS FOR GAY PROSTITUTION

GAY PROSTITUTION - YES
GAY MARRIAGE - NO

REPUBLICANS FOR MORE PROSTITUTION JOURNALISM

[Zuni]

30. that is excellent

Say No to gay Marriage, Say yes to gay porn.

America is the only country where Male Prostitutes are given free Press Passes to the top Executive Press Conferences.

[KurtNYC]

33. Guckert's new website: PressCorpStuds.com

it's for guys with a fetish for guys who dress up as journalists

[Ganja Ninja]

45. In other words:

When it comes to gay sex the GOP says "Don't marry just rent!"

[blm]

53. HAHAH...perfect.

Deserves its own thread.

[leftynyc]

145. I LOVE THAT!!!!! (eom)

[Jade Fox]

169. That's right: Guilt and Shame! That's how you know you're moral! n/t

[deacon]

180. lol, this is hilarious stuff!

[MadHound]

29. Oh these guys are such a laugh!

This is a place for ideas and opinions, not a place for witch hunting.

Is it me, or didn't those fools invent witch hunting? These peoples' head must just be exploding, having to defend that which they have loathed and hated for all of their pathetic lives. I can hear the brain cells frying from here.

[Zuni]

31. Repeat over and over---Clinton was not subject of witch hunts

[DU GrovelBot]

32. ## PLEASE DONATE TO DEMOCRATIC UNDERGROUND! ##

==================
GROVELBOT.EXE v3.0
==================



This week is our first quarter 2005 fund drive. Democratic
Underground is a completely independent website. We depend almost entirely
on donations from our members to cover our costs. Thank you so much for
your support.

[LynnTheDem]

34. Hey that's GREAT!!! Freepers support GAY MALE PROSTITUTES!

Way to go, Freepers!!!

Of course they support LIARS and FRAUDS of any persuasion, that's a given, but to see Freepers supporting a GAY MALE PROSTITUTE is quite the PROGRESSIVE step!

[bloom]

35. maybe some GAY MALE PROSTITUTES would like to help

the Freepers protest. THAT would be fun. :)

[Contrary1]

They wouldn't even have to be

"real" Gay Male Prostitutes...

Just a thought.

[ClayZ]

142. Millionaire male Prostitutes for bu$h.

The entourage, I can just see it.

[Zuni]

47. It is funny, considering this kind of sentiment is common on FR

This is why the homos are in the Republican Party. To sabotage it, and ultimately disable it from stopping their agenda.

We should kick their sorry asses out.

I did not see any challenge to this on the thread except for one gay Republican who was banned and erased---the rest of the FReepers piled on the vitriol against him
Now they are defending a male prostitute working for them in the 'family values' White House?

[Tsiyu]

178. Way to go homos!

Maybe Guckgan is really our pal.

And FR simultaneously expresses solidarity with gays while at the same time banning them from their site?

Cognitive dissonance in its purest, most sterling manifestation, my beautiful DU friends....

[Andy_Stephenson]

36. Hummm so the freepers are now defending

The irony...well you have to admit...is RICH!

Wonder if they will use these pics as placards?

I am laughing so hard I am about to wet myself!

[Andy_Stephenson]

39. As an after thought...I wonder if Rim Job...

was paying for Guckerts services...and I don't mean journalistic services.

[Toots]

38. Someone should show up with a stained blue suit

Rove and Bush* getting BJs in the Oval Office.

[merh]

40. Every time they have one of these it ends up a big flop

maybe 3 people show up. :shrug:

[maxrandb]

41. That's Why I Posted This.

I was hoping that maybe in DU we have a rapid response team that could organize a counter protest. Would be awesome if the news covered it too. Some great sign ideas here, so I'll add some of my own.

"It's Not Who You Know...It's Who You Blow!"

"Conservative Media - 'We Take It Up the Ass for This White House'"

"Hey Jerry Falwell!" "Here's Your Man-Date" (with a nude pik of Gannon)

"Conservatives for Gay Sex" ... "It's the Only Way to Save Our Marriages"

"I Did Not Have Sex With That Reporter"

"Whores In the Media" - Who'd Have Thunk It"

"Restoring Decency to The White House"....the Press Room however...

"Support Our Troops"..."Visit HOTMILITARYSTUDS.COM"

and on and on and on. So many opportunities, so little time.

What are some of your best?

[warrior1]

42. Kewl

Draw more attention to Jimmyjeff and bush's mandate.

[Zuni]

48. I live near DC

about 25-30 minutes away
But I work until 5:30, and there is no way i could get to Downtown DC in rush hour to get there

[Renew Deal]

116. This could be good too

[charlie]

43. My, how our little freeps have grown

They once taunted and reviled those poor confused Log Cabin boys

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/905350/posts

But today they'll go to the barricades for a high-dollar hooker who posts piss pictures on the web. I'm getting verklempt....

[LynneSin]

44. Personally I think it's time Kristin steps down from his post

Obviously from reading this thread from FR, more folks are questioning why he would organize a protest because let's face it - the man was a gay male prostitute and they're going to look like idiots supporting him

To: kristinn
He wasn't singled out for whatever it is in his past they're accusing him of. It's because he simply asked a question.

But he's radioactive because of the sex websites and the naked pictures that are now also part of the story. I don't see why you would stick your neck out until he's explained the entire story. This is a Jerry Springer society - no one is going to remember the question that started all this, they're going to remember you sticking up for a guy with a creepy past.

[Zuni]

46. I call for Kristinn's resignation

the entire time he has been head of the DC Chapter has been one long, ugly embarrasment.

This is just the icing on the cake.

[LynneSin]

75. Let's start one of those online petitions

:bounce:

I'll site the fact that he spent $3k on portapotties when only 30 people showed up. That's $300 a shit!

[Zuni]

104. I love that idea

I don't know how to start a petition, but I'd love to do this one.

:hi:
Ps--How are the cats?

[LynneSin]

109. Adorable as ever

Abbott has got to stop jumping into bed after my alarm goes off. I just want to stay in bed and snuggle with him instead of going to work.

He's just so adorable. Everyday I remember that someone actually threw him away, but I'm glad they did or I would have never found him

:loveya:

That reminds me - I need to schedule a yearly exam for Abbott & Evita

[Zuni]

111. My little cat was abandoned too

I have a cat that was abandoned and left as a stray. She is so sweet and affectionate, I can't understand why someone would get rid of her.

she brings me socks at night.

Well, she is in a good, loving home now so i shouldn't worry.

[LynneSin]

112. I know why they abandoned Abbott!!

I almost abandoned him with all his horny meowing at night. His previous owners never had him fixed.

Poor cat was just plain horny living in an apartment complex surrounded by unfixed female cats. Not a pretty sight!!

But a quick surgery and Abbie is just as sweet as pie and as complacent as ever. But it makes me wonder if there are lil baby abbotts out there since he was unfixed living out there with all those wild cats

[FreedomAngel82]

130. Aww how sweet

Sounds like you guys have very nice cats. :) I'm glad they found you. :) :hug:

[KayLaw]

62. His past?

Why do they keep saying that? I thought the web sites were up until very recently. No?

:shrug:

[tridim]

90. Make a poster of the spread eagle Gannon pic

Hold it up in front of Kristinn and ask, "Does this make you horny?" Of course he'll say no, but watch his face.. He'll turn beet red. I learned at FR that Kristinn and Guckert are "good friends".

[LynneSin]

115. you're shitting me

No wonder Kristin is out there defending Guckert - you think they're just friends or that there is a 'something something' going on there.

[leftynyc]

49. Protesting in defense of a whore????

Could be the beginning of the end of these freaks.

[maxrandb]

50. They Are Not Protesting in Defense of a Whore!

They are Protesting in Defense of a Whore that shills for the Bush administration.

There is a huge difference!

It just shows that all their talk about morality, family values, biblical teaching, fundamentalism, etc is a shell game. That's what is scary. They will support this admin right up until the secret police come to take them to the re-education camps. How blind they must be.

[hughee99]

87. Absolutely!

I didn't see any of these people stainding up for prostitution years ago when it came out that there was a male prostitution ring running out of Rep. Barney Frank's Massachusetts home.

[Carni]

52. They have GOT to be kidding

These people are the dumbest bunch in the history of mankind.

[Sparkle]

54. If I were in the area, I would go. Guckert may show up.

Then I could come back to report if he really is an 8+.:evilgrin:

[ElectroPrincess]

191. Hey you forgot CUT! Like Bush warned us to not forget Poland eom

[BurtWorm]

59. "Jimmy Guckert and Karl Rove Should Be Free To Marry! NO DMA!"

That sign should be there.

[Roland99]

60. Wow...they will stoop to no low, eh?

[Kingshakabobo]

64. I wish I was in the area

I could get some of my "leather daddy" friends to show up, in full dress uniform, to lend support.

[goodboy]

65. Any DUers that go there shoud wear a press pass with Gannon spread-eagled

right on it...that would be HILARIOUS!!!

[Spiffarino]

70. Oh yeah!

[K8-EEE]

72. LOL!! OK Here's My Favorite RSVP To "The Protest!!"

"Oh darn, I wish we could join you. We've already paid for that Reagan dinner tonight at CPAC, so can't get out of it now. We'll be with you in spirit. Hope to see you sometime today or Saturday at CPAC!"

LOL!! I'd love to be out there supporter our Freeper Press Whore, but I've got a Reagan Dinner tonight....oh man. That's gonna be my new fave excuse, "Sorry I'd love to go but I have a REAGAN DINNER!"
OMG THESE PEOPLE ARE TRULY FROM A DIFFERENT GALAXY! What a bunch of weirdos.

[goodboy]

84. GREATEST.PRESSPASS.EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11

[goodboy]

89. that's definitely a "hard-pass"...pun intended....

[Old and In the Way]

122. That just got posted on the thread over there, LOL....

This is my favorite comment, so far. Someone appears to have a crush on Kristinn:

Imagine, a person of political principle looking at all the items in a confused chain of events and issues and making a decision as to how he wants to act and then making a forthright stand.

Must be a DC Chapter Activist. You all know...a guy with guts, ready to stand week after week, year after year in the face of corruption and in support of what he beleived was right.

Perhaps I don't feel as strongly about this as you do, kristinn, but if I was in driving distance I'd be there with you just to bask in the glow of your strength of character.

They're admitting to being nothing more than propagandist brownshirts.

[Crankie Avalon]

71. OK, we've had our fun, but in the interests of fairness, it's time for...

a freeper to respond to this DU thread:

"Give it up, libruls. Is nothing there, there. Jeff Gannon a reporter, plane and single. Not a member of your librul media so you attach. He's not pantywaist librul, but a military man who honors military with his military stud websites and loyal to President America/controls world. That's why you hate. You just jealous and hate military. Republican party love all military studs. Military stud is soul of Republican party/verbal, dominant, controlling top just like website say. A-OK, thumbs up! DUmmies get a brain, morans!!!"

[jasop]

101. ROTFLMAO! Not that was good! n/t

[Zuni]

74. an insane freeper wrote this about Gannon today

To: Embraer2004
Who knew that a hotmilitarystud wanting to meetlocalmen could so easily get to be face2face with the commander in chief?
Well, in the Clinton Administration he would have been on the White House staff, so which Administration wins? ;)

But Jeff gannon wasn't in the immoral Clinton White House, he was hand in hand with our family values, marriage defending President Bush.

They just don't get it. Clinton never had this character in his WH.

[TexasSissy]

81. Ha! Is that for real? I bet they haven't seen his websites!

Sorry, freepers! There's no way to spin THIS story! It's a good'un!

Edit to add notation: I'm speaking to the freepers who posted that in FreeRepublic....not saying that our DU posters are freepers. Just wanted to clarify that!

[Vanje]

97. Good!

Anything to make sure EVERYONE has heard the name of Jeff Gannon.

I talked to my liberal Mom yesterday. She gets most of her news from Public radio and TV. She had'nt heard of the Jeff Gannon/ Jim Guckert problem.

Thanks Freepers! God Bless You!!!!
Hope tou get it on the front page.

[leftynyc]

146. My sister (who is very well informed) called me after

reading Maureen Dowd's column asking what the hell was going on. I pointed her to the blogs and told her to enjoy herself (everyone in my family is a liberal who hates *).

[frankly_fedup2]

167. Wow. They are using the First Ammendment as a case for Gannon?

Where in the first Ammendment does it talk about the "Govt" paying the "press" for favorable reporting and/or questions when they are in a pinch.

This is the 3rd or 4th person who has, supposedly, been paid by the Government. Why are these people not in jail?

[Patiod]

98. I miss the Media Horse Online

They would have loved this

[ClintonTyree]

100. Nothing like giving the issue MORE free publcity................

Thanks freeps, for helping us get this story out to the public. I'm sure both of you at the rally will have a tremendous impact.

[Resin]

103. Why wouldn't they blame the Clintons?

Was reading through the thread on that message board, and a lot of them think this is what the "mainstream media" (I thought it was bloggers?) do to people who try to take down the Clintons!

WTF?

[Zuni]

106. Dude, everything is a Clinton conspiracy

By reading the original notice, you would have thought it was 1999 and clinton was still in office.

[Old and In the Way]

110. We could have a lot of fun with this.

A few hundred "FR for Gay-Prostitution", "FR for Hypocrisy Rights", "I'm a FR Pro-Tax Cheater", "We Love our Man-Date" signs would make for great ridicule. Turn their rally into a protest!

[monobrau]

114. MAN WHORE RIGHTS NOW -NT

[VOX]

117. To freepers who think that this is a First Amemdment rights violation...

Posted in Freep-ville:
- - - - -
"This isn't about putting a stamp of approval on whatever the liberals are accusing Jeff Gannon of doing before he became a reporter, it's about the rights of citizens and reporters to exercise their First Amendment rights without fear of being personally destroyed."
- - - - - -
All I can say is, where the FUCK were you when the Dixie Chicks were being excoriated by right wing yahoos (and having their livlihoods jeopardized and threatened) by excercising **their** First Amendment rights??????? :Grr:

Oh, yeah, that's right, it's only about First Amendment rights when it's a right-winger spewing the usual sewage.

Silly me! :eyes:

[Zuni]

134. What goes around comes around

The same assholes who attacked Sean Penn, the Dixie Chicks etc. etc. and still attack people for speaking their minds are the same ones wining about poor, sleazy Jeff Gannon.

[LittleClarkie]

118. Monica's Gate?

How... ironic...

Gannon's Gate now... bahahahahaha!

[Swamp Rat]

119. I wish I was there to protest too!

I'd infiltrate and create chaos! :D

[smoogatz]

120. This protest needs a few drag queens.

And maybe ten or fifteen big ol' leather-daddies on Harleys, to turn out (no pun intended) with pro-Guckert signs and chants. What a hoot that would be.

[AgadorSparticus]

193. now THAT would be pretty damn cool!! ROFLMAO!

:evilgrin:

[drm604]

121. What's needed

is for a bunch of people dressed and acting as over-the-top gay stereotypes (as opposed to normal real-world gays) to show up in support of this demonstration. Outnumber the freepers and make it into a stereotypical gay liberation type protest in support of Gannon.

"Whitehouse Unfair to Gays."

"Let Us In The Press Corps."

That type of thing. :evilgrin:

[Old and In the Way]

[brainshrub]

126. The word "Gannon" and "Clinton" appear the same # of times

in the body of the press-release.

Gannon = 5 times
Clinton = 5 times

Attention Trolls: This isn't about Clinton, Guckert's sexuality or free-speech. This is about how the Whitehouse PLANTS REPORTERS in the press.

[Zuni]

133. I wonder if they did that on purpose

or if they are just so obsessed with clinton that it came out that way.

[TheModernTerrorist]

132. this is just too much

ah... but will they get time off their job at McDonalds AND their job at Burger King long enough to attend? THAT's the REAL question...

[geniph]

135. HAHAHAHAHA!!!

I love this. The sheer irony of a pack of rightwing homophobes "supporting" a BDSM male ho. Priceless. Don't forget the porta-potties, fella, or the Tigger costumes.



Not to mention all the Clinton references. I mean, jeebus, obsess much? WTF are the Clintons, some kind of black hole for wingnut obsessions?

[Zuni]

141. what does Tigger have to do with anything?

Why drag him into it?

[geniph]

150. Look at the picture

the person in the Tigger costume is holding a Free Republic sign. No one anywhere understands why he was wearing a Tigger costume for a Washington state gubernatorial election protest. And yes, that is a swastika on the sign behind him.

I think he's a Republican plushy.

You guys really MUST check the thread on FR.


From FreakRepublic

To: kristinn

kristinn, this guy has stained us. He asked a smartass question which drew attention to him. You guys bring up Helen Thomas and cry about a double standard. Well, there is one and it sucks, but we are supposed to hold people on our side to a higher standard.

When his possible role as a male prostitute is brought up, you guys talk about Barney Frank. Fallacious reasoning. Barney is open about his homosexuality.

If you go forward with this demonstration, you will hand our enemies an excuse to paint all of us at Free Republic as clueless extremists. There are many thoughtful people here at Free Republic. They help make FR the top conservative site on the net. And some of them have spoke out on this thread.

Please call this off, kristinn. There is still time to do so.

Remind me what the issue is. Is it the right of gay prostitutes using an alias to ask questions of the president on behalf of phony news sites? If so, what's the source of this "right", and why should I be defending it?

The issue is quite clear -- Gannon/Guckert is being attacked because the liberal press corps didn't like the questions he asked. Period. Everything else is smokescreen.
53 posted on 02/18/2005 9:20:17 AM PST by kevkrom


To: kevkrom

"Everything else is smokescreen."
A gay prostitute using a phony name employed by an internet news site that operates entirely out of a suburban living room in Pearland, TX is given unfettered access to white house press briefings and favorable treatment in questioning the President. There's the smoke.

Guess what -- no one cares anymore what the questions were.

Remember, smoke inhalation can be as deadly as fire.

Which makes this scandal so unique.

[Sparkle]

147. Look what this one wrote:

"So you believe DU, Daily Kos and americanblog. I've watched this from the begining and it's been incremental. If one thing doesn't work, try something else. And if the pics were so easy to find, why didn't DU find them when using cache search engines and Google? I find this all very curious and, as I've said, I'll wait until I hear it from someone reputable."

An anonymous recognized Gannon and called John at americablog and mailed the info to him. The poster wasn't following everything that hard. LOL !

[Disturbed]

153. "a fomer prostitute?

Gannon's Web sites were active while he was a "reporter" even before Talon "news" was created. He was not a "former prostitute". He was active at that time.

FreakRepublik defending him is a great thing. It displays them as the moronic nut cases that they are.

[AgadorSparticus]

194. but don't you just love the irony? they are forced to defend something

they absolutely hate and the medicine is not going down too well. i think they are in a bit of shock at where this road can go.

[Ian David]

156. "Jeff Gannon" is a "reporter." And I am an astronaut.

I'm not going to lose any sleep over Gannon being pilloried for being an idiot.

Now, what was it Hannity said about "a propensity to eat their own."?

That's tasty stuff you got there, kevkrom - more than half of the first article is reprinting material from an activist web site. And the "exclusive" Joe Wilson interview - hmmm, wasn't he all over every press outlet that would listen to him? - shows "Gannon's" extensive political knowledge. I like where he refers to the "so-called neocons" - apparently, he has just missed the part where the neoconservatives coined that name for themselves, and many of their leading lights regularly use that name for themselves. Or perhaps he has just been reading some of the idiot posts on here that claim that "neocon" is a slur made up by leftists - posts obviously written by people who have never heard of Irving Kristol.

Yep, you've proved it. "Jeff Gannon" is a "reporter." And I am an astronaut.

"no one has shown me convincing proof that any of the stuff the supposed found on Gannon was in fact true"

Maybe I'm just not blindly partisan enough for FR, but is no one else struck by the fact that "Gannon" has not denied it is him on the sites? Or that he is/was a male escort?

Which NYT/BG reporters have had pictures posted on gay prostitute sites.

Yes, anything's possible. It's possible that all those pictures were faked, the domain registries planted, and the paperwork fabricated, that point to Gannon being a gay hooker. It's also possible that Harry Reid is Osama bin Laden's secret lover. But I'm content with what's most probable, and right now, I'm not going to lose any sleep over Gannon being pilloried for being an idiot.

155. Yup, my thread calling Gannon a male prostitute got pulled and

I can't post there anymore (what an effing shame!).

"Just how do I know he is a male prostitute?" FReeps ask. Uh yeah. Let's just call all the facts a conspiracy by the liberal internet.

They're hopeless. Any facts they don't like is just a "smear"--and a photo of Guckert in army boots and a hard on is "photo shopped."

Dialogue with morans is useless.

the cheerleaders have told them what to think and Dammit! They're gonna follow through!

[youspeakmylanguage]

164. All of theses supposed "tech-savy" freepers...

...keep stating that they think the gay pics and escort site screen shots are faked because they "searched Google and couldn't find them."

I don't have the time to search out links, but it was known from the beginning that they were found on the Internet Archive ( http://www.archive.org/ ).

These freeps seem to be jamming their heads as far into the sand as they can.
