Biden NAILS it

Last night on the Bill Maher show, Sen. Joe Biden (D-DEL) said about the whole Gannon/Guckert affair:

"Why isn't every major network in the country investigating a security breach, forget anything else. How could the FBI, for 17 years I was chairman of the Judiciary Committee, the ranking member. I've read more FBI reports than I ever wanted to know. How could that happen and no one had any idea who this guy was?... The Judiciary Committee of the United States Senate should be investigating it. The House Judiciary should be investigating it. And if it were the other party in charge, it would be investigated"

Amen. And Amen.


Let's recap.

Someone got White House press creds using a fake name. We know that the background check for who gets these passes is incredibly thorough. This same person was working for an upstart online "news" magazine owned by a Texan Republican donor/operative/hack. We also know that the person in question, at the very least, appears on numerous websites under the guise of being a homosexual prostitute. At the very worst - he IS/WAS a homosexual prostitute. The story is a lot deeper and it's still developing... but I think the aforementioned things are enough for a true investigation.

CAN YOU FUCKING IMAGINE THE EXPLOSION OF RIGHT WING FURY HAD THIS SORT OF THING HAPPENED DURING A CLINTON TERM ????

For all the info, see AmericaBlog. I will be shocked (well, not really) if this story isnt making waves in the mainstream press in the next few days.
