More On Gannon
Okay, lot of comments on that post from the left. Why don't I care about Gannon's treason? Why don't I care that he got press credentials under an assumed name? Why don't I care about his prostitution business? Why don't I care that the GOP funded his employer?
The answer to all of those questions, and more is "because I don't know what's fact and what's fiction". The lefty bloggers who have blogged on Gannon's connection with the Plame affair have seized on the fact that Gannon was reportedly subpoenaed by the grand jury, but of course being asked to testify does not mean you're the guilty party.
As for the press credentials, it is far from proven that Gannon is not his real name. If it turns out to really be a pseudonym then there should be an investigation as to how he got security clearance. Ditto with the supposed prostitution business. And the evidence for the GOP funding his employer, Talon News is about the same as the GOP funding the Swiftees; yes the individuals involved appear to be Republicans, but no, there is no evidence that the national party is involved.
Amusingly, one the lefty commenters dropped this turd on my post about coming down with the flu (which is
awful, thank you):
Good. It's probably G-d finally striking back at you people.
Well, hey, I mean there you have it. Another proud member of the reality-based community who thinks God makes people sick to punish them.
