2. If we're so far into his "personal life"...
how come nobody can find anything about him prior
to about 2002?

4. That's their spin.
Instead of going nuh uh, the facts need to be laid out with names and dates attached to them. Johns need to be dug up, too.

Where the hell is Larry Flynt when you could use him?

5. Anyway, we looked at his PROFESSIONAL life as a prostitute
We looked at his CAREER, not who he has sex with on his own time. The guy's charging $200 an hour, sounds pretty professional to me!

6. Dudes, it aint about his genitals, it's about the Generals who pay him
in case you haven't figured out the real story here. Operation Mockingbird and the military's domestic use of PsyOps (at places like CNN) should make you realize where this is going to ...

Again, follow the money. Who pays this guy ? Is he active duty military in mufti ?

8. who pays him and who lays him?
if you think it isn't the real story then wonder why after 8 years of peace and prosperity all people can remember about Clinton is Monica Lewinsky?

16. Again, Secret service monitored Bill's phone calls...think of who
Edited on Fri Feb-18-05 03:18 PM by EVDebs
knew about it and how to 'out' it. Conservative intelligence/secret service would want to get the word out and they did.

To make use of that they use their already taxpayer supported Operation Mockingbird and military domestic spying PsyOps. Nobody even bothered to question the extent of Secret Service involvement in the attempted coup on Bill Clinton.

Again, to 'get' Bill Clinton they needed an impeachable offense, lying (about what didn't really matter) about having sex (or whatever was handy).

But they had to have the proof in the bag (blue dress/dna). And the troops had to know in advance. BTW, wasn't Linda Tripp a secretary for Delta Force ?

10. Well....if we are accused of it, etc!
by the way, why not look into his personal life? Prostitution is still illegal isnt it? Posing as a reporter to get direct and close access to the president....sounds like a terrorist to me...he needs to have his personal life..and every second of his life..exposed..because..you know...i think it is the patriotic thing to do..and clearly there is very clear and present danger to our dear presidents life..at every press conference...if this is the kind of security that is conducted in regard to those who can get that close to the president of the USA.

12. And what exactly are the services he is or was getting paid for?
Either way it is a breach of ethics and law and he has no professional credentials to stand on. So we need to know what is getting paid for, or least what do the vouchers say (could be throwing fraud in on the list). At least that is the way the goody two shoes like to play, so gander meet goose.

9. I don't know but the ones who do are dumb as posts
If some clever blogger had creeped around outside of Gannon's windows with a zoom lense to capture him embroiled in something unseemly... THAT would be digging into his *personal life*

This situation most certainly is NOT.

11. why should we have to?
um, wasn't the secret service supposed to do that before they gave him a press pass?
So now in addition to doing all the wet work for journalists we have to do their jobs too?

13. This is the newest right-wing talking point on this matter
and I'm sorry but the shit ain't sticking to the wall either!

It's just another (failed) and pathetic attempt for the RW to explain this away--when they know they can't. But they damn sure are trying mighty hard aren't they????

14. Since he's obviously for hire, let's all pitch in and pay him to reveal
his benefactor(s)!

17. Get him on contract even
Get some pooled money together and help him make a deal with some crack publishing outfit to write and publish his book in record breaking week and half or two weeks or so. They wouldn't be able to keep the book on the shelf

Sure he would do it, he is one of those kinds, isn't he :evilgrin:

19. Heidi Fleiss was fine until those nosy cops dug into her personal life.
I mean, it's not like she was in the White House Press Corps or anything! She was just minding her own (prostitution) business.
