A.G. Gonzales Gets Hard on Porn

The Bush administration's timing is just priceless and will give The Daily Show, ah, fresh meat.

At the same time that you cannot avoid explicit nude poses by famed male prostitute and fake right-wing journalist "Jeff Gannon" (nee James D. Guckert), Bush's new Attorney General decides to get tough on pornography. In what is billed as Alberto Gonzales's "first public decision on a legal matter," the adorable little A.G. has decided to appeal a judge's decision to toss out a federal indictment against a California couple, "the government's first big obscenity case in a decade."

While the groin-obsessed Bush administration goes after nasty little buggers in California, they allow "Jeff Gannon" to sell his flesh from a perch in the White House press room and to ask the occasionally loaded question of White House Press Secretary Scott McClellan, or of El Presidente himself.

The U.S. attorney in Pittsburgh, charged by Gonzales to pursue the legal appeal against the California couple, "said the case was not about banning all sexually explicit materials, just reining in obscenity." Might want to start with bareback hacks to whom someone in the White House granted press credentials and allowed through security with a fake identity for two full years.

(And if you haven't seen the photos of "Jeff Gannon" that he himself put on the Internet, don't look for links here. Do a Google search like all the rest of us voyeurs.)
