Why did the White House waved him into press briefings for nearly two
years using what's called a day pass.

Is there a limit to how long a reporter can slide on "day" passes, as
Gannon did for years?

HOW DID GANNON GET A WHITE HOUSE PRESS PASS TWO MONTHS BEFORE HIS

"Divide each difficulty into as many parts as is feasible and necessary

There is no 'difficulty' to divide, Jimcomma. No one, except you, gives a rat's
ass about Gannon. The important question to answer is:

"Thank you. Senate Democratic leaders have painted a very bleak picture of the
U.S. economy. [Senate Minority Leader] Harry Reid [D-NV] was talking about soup
lines. And [Senator] Hillary Clinton [D-NY] was talking about the economy being
on the verge of collapse. Yet in the same breath they say that Social Security
is rock solid and there's no crisis there. How are you going to work -- you've
said you are going to reach out to these people -- how are you going to work
with people who seem to have divorced themselves from reality?"

Don't you just love it? That question kind of says it all, doesn't it. I can see
why some folks just seem to forget it.

You can chant that mantra all you want, but it still appears to me that
Gannon had some boyfriends in the whitehouse who arranged for him to be
a plant.

You're not following your own tagline
"Divide each difficulty into as many parts as is feasible and necessary

So do some resolving chant away if you like -- it's sorta like them
monks spinning the wheels.


*What* difficulty presents itself?

There is no difficulty, other than that you liberals, who normally praise
homosexuality, seem to find fault if the homosexual is a conservative!

I'm more concerned with republicans attempting to manage the news by
planting so called press people in the audience to lob softballs, and
make political comments.

Appears you have no answer to the questions raised -- even Ann Coulter
posted some BS trying to defend the move.

So try dividing each difficulty into as many parts as feasible -- maybe
try answering just ONE question.

I'll even accept the mantra again -- it's becoming amusing. How many
times a day do you ave to recite it to be a good republican?

Oh, but it's OK for NBC, MSNBC, CNN, and all the other liberal outlets of 'news'

Appears you have no answer to the questions raised -- even Ann Coulter
posted some BS trying to defend the move.

So try dividing each difficulty into as many parts as feasible -- maybe
try answering just ONE question.

I'll even accept the mantra again -- it's becoming amusing. How many
times a day do you ave to recite it to be a good republican?


Oh, but it's OK for NBC, MSNBC, CNN, and all the other liberal outlets of 'news'
to plant press people in the audience?

They use accredited news people, properly cleared, going through
channels -- I wouldn't call that a plant.

Helen Thomas was there for many years, but Bush is afraid to call on an
80 something year old lady. Real Macho of him.


Give me a break!

Still haven't answered any questions John -- I'll take that as "I can't"


Oh, I see. If they have a pass, then they're not a plant.

Do you actually believe this crap?

If they have a pass, they have been checked out by the secret service,
and work for a reputable news organization. Spin it all you want, but
Gannon was a plant. Apparently you agree with the concept (so long as
he had republican leanings)


Oh, so if they have a pass, and if they've been checked out, and if they work
for a 'reputable' (your word) 'news' (another of your words) organization,
*then* they aren't a plant?

Again, have you ever listened to a White House briefing? Do you honestly believe
those 'journalists' from the major media are just seeking information?

Some have an agenda -- but I believe Faux has a White House
correspondent to "balance things". Would seem to me that a good newsman
(ooops newsPERSON) would be ready, willing, and able to challenge
statements he finds suspicious.

Oh, well, one correspondent to 'balance' things. You've said it all.

I guess if it's not constantly spewing hatred against homos &
libby-rulls, then it's not legitimate media in your opinion?

This says a lot about the Bush/Cheney attitude... forget the First
Amendment, state control of the media is their agenda.

But she might ask him an actual question. We can't have that now,
everybody must stand together against terrorism and stanp out this
traitorous practice of expecting actual answers from your gov't!

Helen Thomas hasn't asked an actual question in ages. Helen Thomas pontificates
her opinion until she is stopped. She should have been sent out of the room long
ago.
