1. Innuendo that Jeff Gannon is Gay.
2. Call him a hypocrite for not backing gay marriage.
3. Innuendo he used a Twain to hide these facts, as evidence of his being a WH plant and throw in something about the Plame Case.
4. Demand a WH investigation.
5. Call for the President to be impeached.
See?
Just insert the variables here in re the O'Mally stuff, it's the same old...
thanks for the compilation. needed doing.
Thanks for looking.
Thanks for highlighting that...I skimmed this thread. More evidence that my assessment of Malkin is correct. She plays very fast and loose with the facts. She's one I wish I could support and like but I just can't do it. The only time was when she was so outrageously attacked by Chrissy on his show.
I don't think libel is the relevant issue. It looks more like a possible criminal violation of the Electronic Communications Privacy Act.
There seems to be an general lack of comprehension about that point in these discussions.
Good eye. You are right.
The question is will NCPAC do anthing?
"To: advance_copy
An investigation would reveal who MD4Bush was and if there was any connection to the Maryland Democrat Party. If there was any connection, it would blow up in their faces nicely.
I'm sure MD4Bush is a Democrat operative, either an O'Malley supporter trying to innoculate him, a Doug Duncan supporter trying to take him down in the primary, or a Washington Compost reporter. (All the same breed of cat, if you ask me.)
According to a source on another board I visit, "it was actually Kathleen Kennedy Townsand's staff/operatives that first started in on the rumors in an attempt to derail MOM's brief run at the Dem. nomination for Gov. a few years back."

NCPAC should contact Jim Robinson and pursue this.
They think that it's OK for a Democrat politician to cheat or at least it's none of the voters concerns. BS and WP say that it's the Mayor's personal life.
Yet, last summer they were only too happy to trumpet allegations against Republican Senate candidate Jack Ryan based on his personal life.
Media outlets (not the BS or WP), as willing accomplices to the Dems, sued to unseal the divorce records of Jack Ryan. Talk about going after the guy's personal life.
The unsealed records revealed that his former wife, in the heat of a bitter divorce, had initially charged that Ryan had tried to get her to have sex with him in a sex nightclub. Possibly a false charge fabricated for leverage in the divorce or possibly Ryan was somewhat kinky.
None of it had anything to do with his public life or his ability to be a senator. But he was GOP, so the press actually sued to go on fishing expedition into the guy's private life and then played the "sex club" stories up.
What would be the violation of the Electronic Communications Privacy Act (ECPA)?
I initially thought that NCPAC had been the victim of a keystroke logger device, spyware, or similar and, thus, the law had been violated.
Now it appears that MD4Bush gave copies of the FReepmails to the WaPo either directly or, more likely, through a cutout. How would that violate ECPA? Can't you legally show copies of emails/FReepmails to others?
The original sender or recipient can legally show copies of email because they are parties to the original communication.
But it wouldn't take any sophisticated techniques like keystroke loggers or spyware to intercept the messages. It could simply be a different person accessing the same computer where the the original person was already logged on to Free Republic. All of the email would be sitting there, ready to be intercepted and passed on illegally.
The Washington Post story did not explain the chain of custody of the emails. The popular assumption that the NCPAC from October of last year is the same NCPAC who posted a few days ago is dubious and unproven.
I'm sorry - that last sentence shoud read "The popular assumption that the MD4Bush from October of last year is the same MD4Bush who posted a few days ago is dubious and unproven."
Thank you, heavy equipment guy. Your diesel is purring.
Kind words are appreciated! Thanks.
His name isn't Caboose...
IT'S O'MALLEY.
NCPAC should not have furthered the rumors by giving in to MD4BUSH probings. It starting to smell like a setup to get the Governor's administration involved before next year. If MOM had waited until next year it would have been too late for him. BE should push for an investigation, let the subpeoanas fly. The truth will be found and MOM will be back-pedaling.
