The most CARELESS and CARE LESS administration in decades.
The fact that this person Gannon could into the WH Press room with such ease lets you know that the WH was complicit in his being a plant. If not, then the WH is the most careless operation around, endangering the lives of WH press by having such lax security and vetting.

This administration cares nothing about the safety, security, economic well-being of the general American public but they use that pretense to drive their agenda. If they were truly concerned about integrity, fairness, truthfulness, safety, security, freedom of the press and democracy they would have allowed these things to happen:

9/11: The word is coming out slowly about how the Bush admin ignored many warnings and refused to take Al-qaeda seriously because it was a holdover issue from the Clinton admin. I need not say more about this.

Bribes of fellow Congressmen by Tom DeLay, the ranking Republican in the House who himself is under investigation in TX for a variety of questionable business and embezzlement deals. So corrupt is he and the system under his leadership and so afraid of the corrupt administration are the rest of his colleagues that they allowed the rules of the ethics Committee to be changed to protect him and others like him.

A fake reporter in the WH press room who not only cavorts with the real press but was given access to a top secret or classified document that outed a female CIA undercover agent just to get back at her husband who was a critic of the administration because of the lies they told concerning Iraq trying to get "yellow-cake."

3. the cost
what if the cost of that million dollars was the death of 1,000s of innocent people in Iraq or that someone would not get hurricane relief because you got a payoff in Florida or that tired policeman and firefighters that put in constant overtime due to terror alerts would not be compensated because you got yours or what if some old people would not get flu shots and die because you got payola. How could you live with yourself then. Every time there has been a documented case of someone getting their little payoff, it is paid out of taxpayers dollars.

2. You've expressed my views
A friend and I were discussing this last night. The US has never been less secure than it is now as a result of the thugs in the WH. They are driven more by whimsy than sound rule-governed policy.

These are truly frightening times we live in.
