At excerpt:

The President (through Scott McClellan) has denied knowing Gannon or Eberle. McClellan and former White House Press Secretary Ari Fleischer have strongly implied they do not know Eberle . The problem here, of course, is that Eberle worked for the Bush-Cheney 2000 campaign in Washington state, was a Presidential Elector and Delegate (as mentioned above) from Bush's home state during the 2000 RNC Convention, and, as we've recently discovered, convened a "GOPUSA Conservative Conference" in Washington, D.C. in both 2003 and 2004, which conventions, run by Eberle, drew the attendance and indeed participation of such Administration and G.O.P. officials as: Senator John Cornyn (R-TX); Chuck DeFeo, eCampaign Manager, Bush-Cheney 2004; Tim Goeglein, Director, White House Office of Public Liaison; Rep. Tom Tancred (R-CO); Raul Damas, Hispanic Outreach Coordinator, Republican National Committee; Patrick Davis, Political Director, National Republican Senatorial Committee; Phillip Stutts, National Director, 72-Hour Task Force, Republican National Committee; and, of course, "Jeff Gannon," "reporter" for "Talon News."

4. Kick for a most excellent article n/t

[EVDebs]

5. We still need to speak up about Operation Mockingbird the CIA's

media manipulation project. I can guess that the Nashua Advocate is most likely not a part of that project, but for the media Operation Mockingbird is the story they dare not speak its name !

[ailsagirl]

6. Do these guys ever TELL THE TRUTH?????

Great job, NA-- but it absolutely blows my mind how much lying these people do!! I can't figure out if they're so mentally sick that they don't realize they're lying, or just morally corrupt.

Either way, they're a pathetic bunch of creeps.

Again, terrific job, NA!!

P.S. Gosh, NA-- wish there were more news editors like you!!!

[AuntiBush]

7. Agreed!

Kick!

:kick:

[in_cog_ni_to]

31. No. They don't ever tell the truth.

That's why their lies are catching up to them. A lie will ALWAYS come back to bite you in the butt! That's what we're seeing. Finally!

Whatever they say, the opposite is the truth.

[ailsagirl]

34. It's absolutely amazing how often they lie!! I suppose everyone

lies once in awhile, but these guys can't say "Hello" without lying through their teeth. It's bizarre. And creepy.

As vile as Iran-Contra? No. Jeff Gannon isn't nearly the treasonous sycophant Oliver North was and is.

15. Very good article...

thank you for all the work that you have done to uncover the ties between Gannon and the Thune campaign. I felt during the campaign that someone was feeding them and coordinating the attacks. I still think KKKkarl is behind all of it. The news stories, the ads they ran were so incredibly nasty to all of the Dem leadership. Every time a new one came on, I sat there with my mouth open in disbelief that any human being could be that nasty.

I have seen some incredibly dirty campaigns in SD over the years. Since 1980, they have gotten so much worse. One after another SD Dem was targeted by the cons.

I just keep thinking...I want to move to a civilized country.

16. Calling out David Corn was sweet too-

..."Of course, if you have done the necessary research, then writing an article like this one by David Corn would be, ironically, a true exemplar of sloppy journalism.

So, how it is that The Nation's Corn can openly wonder if Gannongate is "smaller than it seems," while Salon declares it's "worse than you think?"

nice

[Gabi Hayes]

20. Corn is kinda like the left's version of tweety

he can be very good; forceful, even, very occasional

but he's a psycho

great story, btw; nominated/bookmarked

[Karenina]

17. Kick!

18. kick

19. David Corn

It's good to see Corn giving Gannongate the same rigorous attention he gave the last stolen election.

[bklyncowgirl]

21. Kick for a great article nt

[deacon]

22. Gannon is a sleezebag, the media needs to wake up and demand

answers.

[Vinca]

23. Wonder how much Eberle donated to the campaign.

Didn't the big rollers get a lunch with Bush or Cheney, visits to Crawford and other perks? Hard to believe they don't know him.

[MadAsHellNewYorker]

24. Kick!

27. "Bush Administration ... Appear to Have Lied About Ties

... to Jeff Gannon's Boss, Bobby Eberle" (-Nashua Advocate)

Nope, no ties between Eberle and the Bush Admin...:eyes:

Eberle thanked Karl Rove for his personal friendship and assistance on the pages of GOPUSA:

"I'd also like to send a special thank you to all those who personally provided me with their assistance, guidance, and friendship, including ... Karl Rove..."

http://www.gopusa.com/misc/christmas_2004.shtml

How can they deny an association, when a "personal friendship" with Rove is PUBLICLY cited by Eberle?!

28. Bush didn't know Kenny Boy either

funny what alcohol does to the brain.

[ailsagirl]

36. And what corruption does to the soul

32. OMG. That is one of the BEST articles I have ever read!

Thank You! Excellent! Absolutely fantastic!

THIS is PRICELESS!

So, all told, the Old Media lied.

They said they'd protect us from a government just audacious enough to trample the will of its citizens beneath the jackboot of propaganda.

And they haven't protected us.

They've protected themselves. From an America which, they fear, can't tell the difference between a $200 whore with a $50 journalism certificate and a reporter for The New York Times, The Washington Post, or even a backwater outfit like Fox News.

Folks, the danger of McCarthyism wasn't that it would have persecuted Stalin.

It is still possible to draw distinctions and make judgments in America, and one distinction to be drawn is between a reporter and a Republican activist, and one judgment to be made is that Gannongate is one of the largest, most complicated, and ultimately most invidious scandals Washington has seen in years. As vile as Iran-Contra? No. Jeff Gannon isn't nearly the treasonous sycophant Oliver North was and is. But is it worse than Filegate, Travelgate, Zippergate, Buddhagate? Yes, yes, yes, and yes.

It's big, and it's slipping away, just like the last vestiges of Real Courage in the Old Media.

Those lazy, worthless, beaten-down bastards have done absolutely nothing for us at all.

Brilliant. Just BRILLIANT! :loveya:
