They probably would say it's lies made up by angry liberals I'm sure

Chris

I know and agree that this will be very awkward for them because they are so self-righteous. But, shouldn't "we" be saying that this guy should keep his job and that firing him for this is unfair. Though - prostitution is a crime I guess - but many a liberal thinks a woman (in this case a man) ought to be able to do with her body what she wants, etc.

Anyway - I am just thinking out loud because this just rubs me the wrong way - perhaps it is because he has a small, perhaps average on a good day and with a pump , size penis and is not attractive - yet people are paying him For that weak of heart - that was Strand being as catty as it gets

Darling, a guy using a fake name, working for a fake news organization, who is a male prostitute gets a press pass that gets him within 10 feet of the president POST 9/11. How?

There are also lotsa rumours going around about Scott McClelland (sp?) being gay. And something about Cheney and his 10-inch first name ... There's Something About Cheney!!! (Now we know why Bush keeps him around. )

Is this all just payback?

But using abortion as an example that is similar though not directly analgous, what if a woman in this job had had a third term abortion for reasons not contained in those allowing such things - that would be a crime as well. Would we all say fire her - I do not think we would. Is being a gay hustler (BTW I think "gay for pay" traditionally refers to a straight actor in a gay role - this jackass appears to be gay - to the chagrain of the entire homosexual community I suspect) worse?

Well, there is that - but other than prostitution, how is this a security breach

AND - you know the R's cannot slam him because he undoubtably knows where a few skeletons are buried if for no other reason than he probably has serviced more than one high ranking official. Maybe that is how he got the job - HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM I may be onto something

It is not a security breach to use a fake name. Maybe if you used it to provoke a terrorist act, but that is not what he did. Interestingly, he must have lied on the security screening application, assuming he completed one. That, is a big no no and may be felonious. In any event, it is a fireable offense - so I think he ought to be fired

How did he pass the Secret Service background check using a fake name?

I have no clue - plus, they take fingerprints. As we (or at least I) look at this more closely - it starts to look like just the tip of something larger

I mean they call the four or so people you list on the form. This guy had huge access as well, so they check your high school records (see the permanent record is not just fiction ) for that and really investigate you.
