Did we ever find what happened to Jeff Gannon?

How would we know? Shouldn't you be asking that question on Free Republic?

I don’t think they like it to be brought up on there.

Free Republic would prefer to forget that he ever existed

He's 62 now - I'm sure he's past his whore years. Probably changed his name again. He has already had 4 names in his life - Johnny Gosch, Jeff Guckert, James Guckert and then Jeff Gannon.

But he probably still has a J and G in his new name, otherwise he'll have to burn those monogrammed towels.

Witness Protection Program?

Did we ever learn who he was in the WH to service? Yes, I'm sure there is some thread somewhere with the speculation, but I'm lazy. Please cut me some slack.

R6 - no - the media didn't do its job and the Bush WH was a complete wall of silence. It's still a question mark.

Once again, if anything like this happened under Obama or Clinton, it would be a non-stop 24 hour newscycle about it. Somehow Republicans get away with everything.

Can you imagine if Obama had a gay hooker spend the night at the white house and then made him ask softball questions at pressers? Insane

I wonder how much time Ken Mehlman spent in the WH? I can imagine he would have partaken of JG's services during those closeted days.

Was he servicing Karl Rove's hole, hidden under all those rolls of fat?

Someone needs to get him drunk so that he tells all!

r8, Obama never got a question that wasn't a softball in his entire eight years as President.

I was amazed that this story didn’t go anywhere at the time. The fact that Gannon was signed into the White House repeatedly, and sometimes overnight, was really unbelievable.

I doubt that Johnny Gosch is still alive, and the Gosch family probably had Jeff take a DNA test and it was not a match.

According to white pages, he's either in a sad little apartment in a past its prime Pennsylvania resort town or what appears to be a business address in suburban Wilmington, DE.

The little resort town is where he grew-up.

I was First Lady for a night!

I'm lost. Who is this guy? Sounds fascinating!

r18 wasn't using YouTube in 2008

Jeff Gannon was a a member of the White House press corps. Bush chose him from a group of reporters to ask a question. The question Gannon asked Bush wasn't even a question, it was almost a compliment. It was something like "why don't the dumb Democrats agree with you on this?".

People looked into his background and he had been a male escort, porn star who had run several gay porn sites, focusing on himself as a military muscle hunk. Then he somehow was given White House press credentials and permitted to ask the president questions in public briefings.

People were also saying that Jeff Gannon was in fact Johnny Gosch, a young boy who disappeared in the 70s or 80s. They theorized that Johnny Gosch was kidnapped into some child sex ring involving high ranking military/governmental officials, which tied into his adult websites and White House connections.

Gannon denied being Gosch.

I don't believe all of that, but there are still a lot of questions to be answered.

Thank you, R19.

no one comes near the bunkhouse at the crawford ranch

I looked into this a few years ago and found that he’d moved back to his hometown somewhere in Northwestern Pennsylvania. He’d been an organizer of his class reunion and there were photos from the event showing that he’d put on some weight and looking decidedly unhunklike. His escorting days are long over. I don’t guess we’ll ever know the extent of his special relationship with GWB.

I doubt the Johnny Gosch theory, that kid has been dead for a long time. His own mother couldn't tell if it was her son? She's been through sheer hell, but come on. You'd know your own kid.

That said, Gannon is head case. No one changes his name 4 times! That's just plain weird.

According to his Facebook page, he’s back living in Capitol Hill in DC. His big thing is Garden Guerillas. He’s got a beard and looks like he’s 70.

Not gosch. Gosch was born in 1969, and as R22 pointed out he organizes a class reunion for his high school class of 1975, which means he was born in 1956-57. He lost some of the weight he gained and grew a beard.

Grifting cunt Chanel Rion is the new Jeff Gannon!

I touched his no-no

Wait ... so is that George W. kissing the male prostitute's head?

WTF LOL

what was the explanation for that?

bumping

R29 - yeah, I never saw those pics before either. I don't think Gannon had hair?

Do we think he was in the White House because of Mehlman? He managed the Bush re-election campaign of 2004 (which was primarily anti-gay marriage to get out the vote). Of course, Mehlman didn't live at the White House, just worked there.

How did he stay overnight?

I'll take, "wantonly as a coked up pass around bottom" for $1000, Alex

She died of the Rona.
