Great time for someone to bring up Jeff Gannon
Edited on Thu Nov-26-09 07:34 AM by Laura PourMeADrink
Dopes on CNN just said there was never a security issue like the WH State Dinner crashers.

What about Gannon? Sure, someone gave him credentials - but really!

I am still waiting for the release of Bush WH entry logs. Guess until I'm old and gray.

BTW, Don't you hate it when the news doesn't ask the biggest question you have...how did everyone find out
that the current WH State Dinner crashers weren't invited?

1. There's More To This Deal...
Someone inside knew about this scam as guests had to pass through several checkpoints. I didn't hear specifics as if these people used fake IDs to get in (pretending to be someone else) or were able to pass the check under their own names. Either way I suspect there's more to what happened here.

While some are laughing this off, I do see this as a serious problem. With all the threats this President receives and the unhinged nature of the right wing, this is getting a little too close for comfort.

2. Agree - don't want any crazy wingnuts within 2 miles of Obama
they were just saying that the two could face federal felony charges if they used fake names - lying to govt officials.

you are right - no details, no hint of investigatory reporting anywhere. welcome to the dumbed down media.

3. They had to have help from the inside.
There's no way they could have done this themselves.

4. At least they didn't stay overnight and have free run of the WH or
(so far as we know currently) have a website advertising their sexual favors for sale by hour, day or weekend.
