Is Brit Hume a Gay Prostitute?

Having taken down the highly influential and powerful media figure of Jeff Gannon, the left takes on the VRWC's #2 man--Brit Hume.

Sources inside Media Matters have revealed that Brit Hume misquoted FDR and is really a gay prostitute name 'Joe Hung'. He also likes gay sex, with gay men.

When asked about the matter, Duncan 'Atrios' Black said:

You wingnuts just don't get it. This is not abut sex, this is about Brit Hume lying about the icon of heterosexual masculinity's, FDR's--a real ladies man, a man who was schtooping some really fine secretaries (not like that bull-dyke, Eleanor!!)--view of Social Security. FDR felt the same way about Social Security as Bill Clinton, who as we all know banged a lot of chicks in the White House. This is not about the sordid details of Brit Hume's secret gay life as a gay prostitute with gay men. Nor is it about all the gay sex he was having with those hypocritical and biggotted Republican Nazis who hate gays because they secretly are gay in the White House. It's not even about whether or not the President knew Hume was probably having gay sex with Andy Card for money. No, this is about lying.

Why do you wingnuts always focus in on the sex? Homophobes.

WHITE HOUSE SCRAMBLES TO EXPLAIN
FAKE REPORTER IN ITS PRESS CORPS

Feb.17, 2005 -Internet researchers have uncovered new evidence that contradicts the Bush Administration's claims about James Guckert, a Republican activist allegedly involved in criminal activities [ed note: italics added]and linked to an incident involving a major breach of national security [update: added the bold] . Guckert, operating as "Jeff Gannon," was granted daily access to White House press briefings for more than two years as a "reporter" [ed note: the quotes are original, but I wish I had added them]for Talon "News" [update: added "" around News for dramatic affect].

White House Press Secretary Scott McClellan stated that Guckert was granted access in part because he was affiliated with a news organization that "publishes regularly." But yesterday, bloggers discovered video footage suggesting this standard was not applied to Guckert. Video footage of a Feb. 28, 2003 White House press briefing shows Guckert, apparently unaffiliated with any news organization [ed note: how does video suggest this, er...???], asking former White House Press Secretary Ari Fleischer a question. It is unclear why Guckert was granted any pass at this time, since the Internet-based Talon News did not register its domain name until March 29, 2003. [ed note: plant!!! See, Bush=Hitler, chimp-shrub-Bush is a liar, thousands died because Bush lied!!]

Maureen Dowd, a Pulitzer Prize [update: italics added] winning columnist for the New York Times, reported today she was denied press credentials at the start of the Bush administration in 2001. Yet Guckert, whose only journalistic training was derived from a $50 weekend seminar, was repeatedly granted access. [ed note: $50 gained by renting his cornhole out to the highest bidder (not that there's anything wrong with that)0

Despite calls from Congress for the White House to disclose its standards for entrance to the briefing room, the Bush administration has yet to reveal its credentialing standards or details surrounding the scandal, including: specific dates when Guckert was admitted to the briefing room, how many passes he was issued, as well as how he cleared a Secret Service background check while owing the state of Delaware over $20,000 in back taxes (penalties and interest) and possibly engaging in prostitution, as revealed by Americablog.org. [ed note: but this is not about gay sex. Those nude gay pictures of Guckert with a gay erection on Americablog is just incidental to the story]

Guckert has also been implicated in a leak of federal classified information that revealed the identity of CIA undercover agent Valerie Plame [update: italics added--unfortunately, no tinfoil available in html]. Revealing the identity of an undercover agent is a federal crime [ed note: what did Bush know, and when did he know it?? Bush lied thousands died!!].

White House Press Secretary Scott McClellan has insisted that President Bush will do anything he can to assist the Plame investigation. But the White House has not answered questions about the role of Guckert in the Plame investigation [ed note: namely, did President Bush have gay sex with Guckert and reveal Plame in a moment of passion?] or his inexplicable access to White House Press Corps briefings.

3 He was no more a fake reporter than Dan Rather. Just like Rather he put out his opinions as news. He just happened to be pro America instead of anti America. If this same "standard" were applied at ABC,CBS,NBC,CNN, NYT, WPost, LAT et. al. they would not have anyone to "report". The old double standard of the MSM, or do as I say not as I do.

4 Hey, revealing CIA agents' names is NOT pro America. It's treason. This sort of guy thinks if a hooker is Republican, he's more "American" than a Democrat preacher.

6 Gannon had nothing to do with Plame. That is a lefty delusion

8 The Left part of the pajamasphere is desparate at this point. They have nothing else to go on. They have 2 issues: hate Bush and raise money. The hate Bush thing hasn't worked out so well, so they have to try anything.

9 Jeff Gannon, hyper patriot moral value citizen of virtue, a man with family values, a true american...Hypocrite! Seriously folks, if you have not figured out that this is a very serious issue, you must be "divorced from reality" as Gannon would say. The Bush admin has BROKEN THE LAW by admitting a fake reporter from a fake news service into official executive news briefings. The Bush propaganda machine, whichs holds many of you captive is not only hiring pundits to pimp his policies, but hiring a gay male hooker to create news. It just amazes me that conservatives think they can defend this. It is funny though, irony I guess, that this hotmilitarystud9.com hooker liked to bellow at fellow dittoheads what a "moral values" guy he was because he owned a gun and drove an SUV. That usually describes conservatives, wishing you were something you are not. Truly, to support the GOP lie machine at this point shows pure ignorance and sterility. A true wonder to observe for sure. ernie

10 Ernie got it right. This isn't about Gannon/Guckert being gay. This about someone who espouses the rightwing version of "family values" and works as a prostitute. This is called hypocrisy, not a good fit for those of us not yet divorced from reality. Also, how many laws have been broken? This isn't going to die without some answers. Monica Lewinsky didn't change her name to Mother Theresa because it is easier to pronounce nor did she charge 200 bucks a pop. Monica who?

11 Why does the religious right hate America? Because they want to install a fascist theocracy.

12 In Guckert's CBC interview, he was asked what he was up to before coming to Talon News. He said he was "pursuing entrepreneurial activities in the private sector." http://www.male4malescorts.com/reviews/bulldogdc.html This is not a "whore with a heart of gold". This is an evil man without a conscience, though he professes to be a good Christian. He embodies Evil, and just like W, is totally unaware that he is Evil, since his motives of supporting Right wing Republicans are so pure. When he got paid, Gucky probably claimed he was a church. That's what a lot of trashy super right wing guys do. And this man is trash. Actually, this man's behavior really makes all of us appreciate the fine moral standards maintained by those who are brought up in trailer parks in the rural South and housing projects in the urban North. When folks paid him, he wouldn't need to report those "charitable contributions" he collected. And the fellows who gave him contributions really didn't want to be bothered to track those receipts for "charity". I'm sure Gucky's a burglar, too. I've never heard of a prostitute who won't commit burglary. Come on now, after he's done the deed with a John, don't you think he might decide to take along any loose knick-knacks lying around as a "souvenir"?. When he took a shower afterwards, in the John's home, do you think he kept his hands off the medicine cabinet? If he saw a prescription bottle of oxycontin worth $500, would he say to himself, "Oh, no, my client will complain to the police," or did he say, "Eureka. I'm getting paid double if I just pocket that prescription bottle"? Considering the bad habits whores fall into of lifting stuff away when they've been visiting "customers" at home, I think there's a strong possibility that Gucky has also lifted some stuff from the White House. If the DC police were to search his apartment, they'd undoubtedly find an ashtray or sterling silver teaspoon or a fancy Presidential pen that he did not receive as a gift, but that he stole from the White House or from one of his johns. In addition, Gucky has not been adverse to committing white-collar crimes. Bedrock corporation -- the last line of the Flintstones' theme song is "Beddrock, bedrock and we'll have a gay all time" -- that he set up to clear checks has acted as a factor, financer, and a collection agent. Asserting false claims against families of the recently deceased and offering to improve the credit of economically marginal people, for a fee, are some of the "work" Bedrock performs. Though it's not as entertaining as gay sex, asserting false claims against berieved widows evinces how Gucky and his supporters cross the line from sociopath to psychopath, from being an antisocial, non-violent criminal, to being criminal, even violently so, without conscience. We are not just fighting hypocrisy here, but EVIL: evil that is inspired by the moral direction of George W. Bush and Karl Rove. The Right claims the moral high-ground while relying upon EVIL criminals to accomplish its objectives. It's not just a gay prostitute who was close to the president, but a grifter, part of a whole group of far-right grifters, stealing directly from the poor and destitute to enrich themselves. Getting cash from a general because you gave him a good ride in bed is one thing, getting cash from a young soldier's family, after he has died young, by asserting totally false claims against his widow is another. Guckert reassures himself that no matter how criminal or foul his behavior, he is a good Christian and God will love and forgive him, even as God has forgiven our president. Gucky undoubtedly sees as his role models for good Christian behavior George W. Bush and Karl Rove. That means when he kicks at bums sleeping in the street, for the sheer pleasure of watching them wiggle in pain, he only kicks hard enough to cause permanent injuries, not death. In doing so, he imitates President Bush who supports the right of infants to be born, but not the right to stay alive: thousands of children are to go to bed hungry, without health care, because of reduced funding for food stamps and medicaid.

13 I think the democrat lackies are pissed off because a queer has came out to be a Republican. Normally, funny bunny types are democrats. Are right wingers incursing into left wing populance? Stealing some of their most vocal members. My God, will jessie jackson be next to cross over?

16 This whole thing only proves this bloggers point that you can't believe anything that falls out of this administrations foul mouth... It makes no difference if you support their rhetoric or not. Americans are becoming less trusting of our government because it is hypocritical stances on moral issues. I have nothing against gays (I happen to be one), but I do have a problem with people who bash them with one hand while they stroke them with the other. Answers are required in this matter. This makes the Monica Lewinsky scandal look like an episode of "I Love Lucy". I say crucify the sons of bitches. It's time they got a taste of their own medicine.

17 Jd: Now that makes a lot of sense. Americans becoming less trusting of our government? Hogwash. The government has never been trusted. The nature of the animal. (No man's life, liberty or property is safe when congress is in session). Ben Franklin. And James, sorry about the queer comment. I know you faggots like to be referred to as gay.

18 grey rooster isnt jeff gannon is he? thats what "jeff would do" show all his bad faith homophobia showing the rest of us that his "conservative " facade was nothing but the classical fascist mentality who hates everything. women, the aclu, liberals, the french, germans, chinese, mexicans etc etc ...its like the ann coulter people who spill vile hatred then call themselves moral anf virtuous...the scary thing is the idiots are in control and america is now paying the price. ernie

Posted by: ernie at February 25, 2005 11:41 AM (ursvs)

19 ernie: You lying shit. I love women and mexicans. Yea. Americans are paying the price. Thats why the list to get in keeps growing and growing. Liberalism is like assholeism and you've got a big case of it. Sorry society has passed you by. Not our fault. If you weren't such a creep maybe the world would be better to you. Just another friggin loser blaming his own inadequacies on others. Bet your ugly too. Blame nature, not the government. You to can be normal. Just try harder.

20 ernie: In your infantile raving 2/19/05 3:40 pm you claim in capitals that the Bush Administation has BROKEN THE LAW. Can you quote which law? or is this simply another exaggerated lie.

Posted by: greyrooster at February 28, 2005 06:24 AM (CBNGy)

21 I find this whole story extremely interesting. I am sort of shocked that this guy Gannon was in the White House at all. I have now read the story and I have a pretty good grasp of it now. In my opinion, Gannon was intimately involved with someone high up in the Administration. Even better, there could possibly be more than one official. It's kind of scary. People are losing their lives for this country and the deciding forces are just getting themselves sexually which contrary to what they preach in their morality and ethics sermons. I can't beleive it. If you ask me, this is going to get pretty big. This is not liberals against conservatives this is the ultimate good verses evil. Imagine all the lies, clandestine sex, prostitution, more lies, pictures of men urinating, s&m maneuvers all professed under a false cloud of decency. This has got to be rooted out. Bloggers keep going. Don't let anything stop you. Keep nailing this story til the coffin containing these hypocritical ideals is forever sealed away. Mash them and tell all you know. Don't hold back. I cannot the NPC invited this hooker to sit on a panel. He should be answering questions posed by the grand jury. I can not beleive this story. This one is hard to accept as reality. Really.

22 I'm not finished. This Gannon guy needs to brought out to the town square and block his head and wrists as apublic display of what is wrong with these morality police. Give him water and vinegar. I am really mad as hell. Truthseen
