Sign the Democrats.com petition for a Special Prosecutor for Gannon
Edited on Fri Feb-11-05 10:24 AM by papau
Sign the petition and spread the word!
http://democrats.com/gannon

To: George W. Bush, Alberto Gonzales, Congress, and the Media

We demand the appointment of a Special Prosecutor to investigate the "journalist" using the pseudonym "Jeff Gannon" (James Dale Guckert) who attended daily press briefings at the White House and was regularly called upon by Scott McClellan.

Obviously "Jeff Gannon" is not a bona fide journalist and should never have been given White House press credentials.

In 2003, top White House officials gave "Jeff Gannon" exclusive access to an internal CIA memo that named Joseph Wilson's wife, Valerie Plame, as a covert CIA agent.

It is obvious that there was a conspiracy between "Gannon," McClellan, and other top White House officials to run "smear" campaigns against White House "enemies" and to interfere with tough questions by real White House reporters. This is unacceptable in a Democracy.

In addition, "Jeff Gannon" may have dabbled in male prostitution rings (through registration of sites like Hotmilitarystud.com, Militaryescorts.com, and Militaryescortsm4m.com) which raises the possibility he was bringing male prostitutes into the White House or other institutions of our government.

These issues go infinitely beyond the charges involving Monica Lewinsky and therefore demand immediate investigation and prosecution.

Sign the petition and spread the word!

1. How deluded can you get?

The fascists rule and they will NOT act on any Democratic initiatives, now will they investigate themselves, no matter how heinous their behavior. Get used to it.

Imagine if the Jews had petitioned Hitler to investigate his final solution. Do you think he would have done it? If they'd had 6 million signatures? If they'd had 20 million signatures? C'mon now, get real.

2. I signed. The worst thing we can do is play dead. Speak up!
Whenever the people are well informed, they can be trusted with their own government; that whenever things get so far wrong as to attract their notice, they may be relied on to set them to rights. - Thomas Jefferson

5. Thank you! I totally agree. We have to take action. Great quote!
If we don't speak up for ourselves, surely nobody else will. I signed and passed this on to most everybody I know. So get busy!:-)

6. And this has totally dropped from the news!
Even Keith Olbermann and Jon Stewart have dropped it! This gay male prostitute was a member of the White House Press Corps under an assumed name! Yikes! This is a big story!
