"That picture is gay! No buts or ifs about that!"

It's queer you should say that...I was thinking it probably wasn't his looks, but maybe his upbringing, you know, something to do with the way he was reared. [rimshot]

I think you are hung up on the "holy of holies" stuff. You are making assertions about things I did not write to you.

And, you miss my central point.

And I disagree with you about "if you've got anything to hide don't run for office". Oh, heck -- you don't even have to run for office to get an anal probe from the Lib/Dems. I gathered you've not at all followed the case in NJ, concerning a poster in here who is stepping down due an anal probe by the usual suspects. He didn't flame a rumor. He was simply on a "thread" which was addressing a well-known rumor going on in NJ.

How many academics who merely question Political Correctness find themselves accused of "creating a hostile environment" "sexual harassment" by accusers who won't come out in the open. How many academics are out of JOBS because they didn't fall in step with Big Brother Liberalism? Oh heck, let's cut to the chase -- most anyone not falling in lockstep with socialist/communism, using their classrooms for "Democrats in Training" sessions just can't even get HIRED at most "educational institutes".

Lessee, there's another poster in here, Race Bannon. A citizen. Did a civil protest. Had an allegation by opponents tossed at him, they shopped a judge, he lost, and had to pay a lot of money.

Another couple, protesting civilly, got beaten up by Union Thugs. And the unions had the gall to try to take THEM to court.

Then there's Buckhead. A guy noticing something odd about the CBS Rather memos. I'm surprised he didn't move to another country. The media could have just asked in here, in this forum. They could have been civil. Oh but no, they had to do the au-so-dramatic "it's a Republican conspiracy" thing. Another "plant" story.

In all the above instances... lawyers and MSM and others DIG UP STUFF on a person, whether it is real, alleged, or rumored. I've been to the innercities doing charity work. Therefore there may be a photo somewhere of me, and rumored as my hanging out with drug dealers. Get my drift?

My point is: you don't have to run for political office to get the probe.

Now, below point is where I fully agree with you (and I wish you'd realize I'm not your enemy...I'm more with you in agreement than not about many of your thoughts and positions. I don't think you are understanding mine.):

And it's interesting that no one has to my knowledge yet agreed with the idea that we should do it back, and that the left is far more vulnerable than the right for bringing this up.

You are right.

Evidently, no one imagines the number of gay and lesbian and weirdo lefty cruiser journalists that could be outed on the web with this kind of standard

You are quite right; but please understand that the outting of such data on "lefty cruiser" stuff is erotic material to the very same people, and therefore, many might be quite pleased to have such stuff appear in photos, front pages of newspapers, etc.

or appreciates that the media has now begun going after its own.

I'm seeing it occasionally in certain locations in the print newsies. But most certainly not on the TV MSM network news (fox excepted), however.

If they do it to the left, the right may swing its club in the same fashion, and that the implications are huge for their ability to work as journalists. If politicians had it bad before with media intrusion into their lives, now journalists will, too. Payback is a bitch.

Payback is indeed a bitch, my friend. You are quite right.

I still don't think these two are the same guys. A girlfriend long ago showed me a forum full of "dating" pics. I saw someone who liked pretty much like me. It was quite startling.

In the photos you've posted: the headshape is NOT the same. The ears look similar, tho as do certain facial features. My saying I don't think this is the same guy is not a "wishful fantasy". I just don't think they are the same guy.

But what I don't get is... first the lefty bloggers try to rumor a link to "gay porn sites". This photo, if it is Jeff, could be a photo to a girlfriend, too. I didn't quite get clarity from them where exactly they got this photo except off of AOL. So does this mean it wasn't on the alleged "gay porn sites" that allegedy Jeff is linked to? He has been quoted as saying those "questionable" sites are not his, personally..

Through all the rumoring, the Slaughter letter, now the Lautenberg Investigation.. the so-called evidence and their charges are.. flimsy. So now they are demanding an investigation that the WH turn over all PAPERS ON JEFF GANNON. You know why? They know they have a weak case, and they are hoping to get data from the WH to help them fill in the blanks of their own charges. My take. Of course it is under the cover of Poynter person's charge that "NATIONAL SECURITY" is at risk or imperiled because Jeff Gannon used a nom de plume.

Oh, yes this is all "Alice in Wonderland" stuff these lib/dems are up to: Magic tunnels, fighting over rattles, Red Queen "off with her head" charges, and where Jabberwockies stalk the innocent. My, my. What will Lib/Dems invent next.

My advice to Gannon is from a 70's movie -- the Cannonbal Rally, iirc, "Throw away the rear-view mirror!"

No, I think we understand each other. I just see this photo and the subsequent resignation as better evidence than you. And I do think that if these photos aren't him, just as if NCPAC didn't do it, they should be fighting it instead of quitting. I didn't hear either say anything to demonstrate their guilt, but slipping quietly away, unlike RaceBannon's fighting it, makes them look guilty.

The leftist assault on the right is obvious. We agree. I just don't understand why the right won't take it right back in their face, hitting lefties with the same sleaze tactics they smack the right with. I can only assume it's the RaceBannon problem--we have money and things to lose, they don't.

I would simply laugh off these silly Rat requests were I the White House, asking if they want more pictures for their crush books, or if they're just lonely. I mean, smack them down from the press room, too, and they'll fold. The leftist bullies always do when you hit back.

"I requested clearance each day via an e-mail to the White House Press office the night before. I gave them my professional name, my legal name, my social security number, my address and phone number, and the news service where I worked," he said.

"I would go to the guard gate and show my driver's license with my legal name, and they looked me up on the computer and let me in."

He did not obtain WH credentials using false identification. He is not a "perp", twerp. Hope this helps.
