“A Man Called Jeff”

Remember how we said earlier today that the reason why we haven't really been following this whole Jeff Gannon thing is because we were getting tired of seeing that same picture accompanying the story everywhere we looked? Now that some hardworking lefty pinko blogger has unearthed a bunch more, maybe it's time for us to start paying closer attention. (So let's get this straight: a gay hooker was caught blowing George Bush on the roof of the White House or something last week? Cool!)

Update AmericaBlog's John Aravosis responds to the (conservative) critics who say that delving into "Jeff Gannon"'s personal life is besides the point: "Spare me your sanctimonious bullshit now that those of us in the gay community and on the left have finally—finally—started to fight fire with fire by simply holding you to the very standards you legislate over us. We are simply giving the GOP the sex-less utopia it's always wanted. How does it feel?" We couldn't have said it better ourselves. (americablog.blogspot.com)
