Pay No Attention To The Man Behind The Curtain
Most people who have been paying attention for the last several years have known that the president is, in effect, a human sock puppet; espousing ideas and fronting a policy for which he does not have the mental acuity to have devised nor to even clearly articulate. It is evident in the dull look in his eyes. It is evident in his inability to answer questions for which he has not been prepared. It is evident in his brutal assault on the English language. It was evident when he sat for 5 minutes in front of a kindergarten class after he was told by his Chief of staff, Andrew Card, "A second plane has hit the second tower, we are under attack. " (1)
Whoever is responsible has been very clever. There have only been a couple of times that the veil has been pulled aside and we have seen the deception in plain view. Once it was when Jeff Gannon, aka James D. Guckert, (2) was exposed as a former homosexual male escort, working for a former GOP political action committee out of Texas, a comittee that one day decided to change it's name to Talon News. Mr. Gannon went on a weekend journalism seminar and suddenly he was a journalist, with the plumb job of sitting in on Whitehouse Press Briefings. He was able to breach the most protected building in the United States, using a pseudonym. He soon rose to a "go to guy" who Scott McClellan (Press Secretary) and George Bush would use for "softballs" when things got hot. Talk about the American dream! It's like Pretty Woman only Julia Roberts is a gay hooker. But who was Richard Gere?
Who indeed? When Jeff Gannon's tawdry past was exposed, one thing that came to light was that he seemed to know a lot about the Valerie Plame affair. He even interviewed Valerie Plame's husband in 2002 using a confidential internal Whitehouse intelligence document. So not only was he getting access to the press briefings, he was also receiving internal documents.(3) Someone must have really like him! Hmm who indeed? Let's see; gay male escort, Texan Republican PAC who has invested heavily in Bush in the past, The Valerie Plame affair.....Wait a minute, didn't I just here something about Valerie Plame recently? Oh yeah (4) Karl Rove has been "outed" (I just couldn't help it) as the person who leaked the Valerie Plame affair.(5)
Hmm, let's put it all together and see if it fits... 55 year old Texan, never been married, huge figure in the Texas Republican Party, uses Big Texas Republican donor to change his PAC to a news service, has donor hire his "Boy-toy," gets said "Boy-toy" into the Whitehouse under fictional name, gives said "Boy-toy" classified documents to use in scandal that now leads directly back to Karl Rove. Yep, works for me!
You really couldn't make this stuff up!
