In an act of rank hypocrisy which exposed the severity of their Bush Derangement Syndrome, mainstream media types, who are usually pro-gay rights, went out of their way to bash reporter Jeff Gannon for his "indiscretions" after he dared participate in Bush press conferences while harboring conservative thoughts.
Now it seems an employee of a John Podesta organization with strong pro-Obama ties is doing the same thing without a peep from the MSM.
Fair-minded conservatives were aghast in President George W. Bush's second term when the left-wing character assassination machine went into high gear to destroy Jeff Gannon.
Gannon, also known as James Dale Guckert, asked questions that annoyed liberals because they were based on a right-wing political perspective.
Gannon had skeletons in his past, which sent the left into deepening shades of delight. Even though the left prides itself on being gay-friendly, the fact that Gannon's indiscretions were related to his homosexuality only egged on the vicious hypocrites
Now comes the revelation that at least one partisan ideologically-driven leftist is being welcomed to White House media events.
That person is Faiz Shakir of John Podesta's propaganda factory, the allegedly nonpartisan Center for American Progress (CAP).
Shakir participated in President Obama's prime-time conference March 24.
So, a partisan, ideologically-driven individual from an organization that is aggressively promoting the Obama agenda was granted media credentials for the White House.
Will there be Gannon-era howls of outrage from the left over this?
Don't count on it.
