Excuses are kind of like clothes, and Scott McLellan has neither.
His job is the coordination of ALL press relations for the White House, but he tells us that he has no idea how these people get through his door? Jeff Gannon? Sure, seen him around a few times. Fake name? Uhhh… Male prostitutes? Well, we weren’t that close.

Let’s look at that gaggle again:

MR. McCLELLAN: Hang on. I think he's been coming for more than two years now.

Q Under what name?

MR. McCLELLAN: Sorry?

Q Under what name?

MR. McCLELLAN: Well, you have to get cleared. You have to -- just like anybody else that comes to the White House, you have to have your full name, your Social Security number and your birth date. So you have to be cleared just like anybody else.


Ah, there's the rub, Scotty: who cleared him exactly?

Q So he was being cleared under James Guckert, or whatever his name is?

MR. McCLELLAN: My understanding, yes.


Yeah, my understanding. I knew to call James Guckert by the fake name of ‘Jeff Gannon.’ I never questioned this, apparently, even though it’s my shop and we have security that would make Stalin feel safe. I just work here. This kind of thing happens all the time. Good help is hard to find these days.
