The RW spin is about to start re:Gannon/Guckert - it's been silent

[BR_Parkway]

for the most part, but now enough has gotten out so that FAUX "news" had to finally post something - albeit wrapped in the softest kid gloves that they could.

Today, jeffgannon.com has come back to life - plenty of rationalizing, links to other conservative blogs of support (It's all a lefty conspiracy into his private life, didn't ya know?)

Andrew Sullivan finally has a little something to say, mostly that we on the left are wrong, but it's the first acknowledgement of the entire episode.

We should look forward to a Sludge report ***Breaking***, more comments on InSannity and OxyRush.

I'm amazed that it took them this long to get their message together, I guess they hoped it would go away. Don't hold your breath waiting for the radical clerics Dobson, Falwell or Robertson to mention anything - this is one battle they want to stay clear of. The only possible way they can support the message is through that time-honored "the left is persecuting Christians again - we need more money to save our small, fragile religion".

After all, Jeff/James Gan/Guck has repented, been forgiven and all that - let's just ignore the part that someone truly repentant would have taken down the less then modest websites advertising for illegal acts. And hasn't expressed any public sorrow besides getting caught.

Oh for the days to see William Jefferson Clinton make a public apology for his wrongdoing; if only the rest of them could come so clean. But the party of "personal responsibility" only seems to say that they are sorry BECAUSE it's everyone else's fault.

1. You could be right, but still waiting for Drudge to have some

so called "breaking news" on it.

2. Susan Molinari, Republican Strategist on Hardball

...was basically saying "what's the big deal" ? She must've gotten her "script" already.

5. She was saying that the White House couldn't have been involved

because the whole thing was too stupid. It should be pretty easy to call bullshit on that angle. And the Daschle thing reeks of Rove.

3. So why are we wrong? Sullivan is crap!

He'd be all over the Clinton White House if this were him!

:argh:

4. Like a duck on water

Everything is calm and serene on the surface, but underneath things are happening, it must be the same here. The ratwing is hoping that the appearance of calm will distract from the commotion beneath the surface.
