More Fun At the Expense of Bush's News Hooker

The Gannon/Guckert story (introduced on this site previously) probably won't cost Dubya & Co. the political capital it ought to - in fact, they'll probably just get away with it scot-free, again - but it does make for some good laughs.

Via Jo Miller, a link to excerpts from a Bill Maher show on the topic, with a little Robin Williams insight at the end (in Quicktime format)
The White House has ties to gay prostitution. I think I know now what Bush meant now when he said he had a MAN-DATE. - Bill Maher

Also via Jo Miller, the Rude Pundit provides some analogies for the scandal
The Gannon/Guckert story is a low hanging curve ball right to the inside for the Christian right, yet they refuse to swing. Gay prostitute in the middle of the Christian President's White House? C'mon, this is like a black man in the South in the 1920s fucking a white woman in the middle of a Klan meeting because the flames of the burning cross are so romantic. It's like a mohel walking into the middle of Hitler rally and saying, "Who wants a circumcision? I'll give you a good price." It's like an Iraqi walking into Abu Ghraib, dropping his pants, and saying, "I know where the weapons are, and I bet you can't beat it out of me."

Last but certainly not least, the Get Your War On guy nails it, too.
