I have always had an attorney on retainer, and now I believe I will have to put him to work.

Since There are so many questions about what the president was doing over 30 years ago, what is it that he did after his honorable discharge from the National Guard? Did he make speeches alongside Jane Fonda denouncing America's racist war in Vietnam?

I'd like to get back into journalism. I'm hoping someone will offer me a job as a commentator or one of those political analysts that you see on the news shows all the time.

I use a pseudonym, because my real name is very difficult to pronounce, to remember, and to spell. And many people who have been talking about me on television have yet to pronounce it correctly.

I answered their questions truthfully and honestly, but I would prefer not to say more. I assume the information was routed back and that is why I was not called to testify.

How are you going to work with people who seem to have divorced themselves from reality?

Harry Reid was talking about soup lines, and Hillary Clinton was talking about the economy being on the verge of collapse. Yet, in the same breath, they say that Social Security is rock solid, and there's no crisis there. How are you going to work-you said you're going to reach out to these people-how are you going to work with people who seem to have divorced themselves from reality?

My employer was never at any time aware of anything in my past beyond the writing I did, because, frankly, it isn't relevant to the job I was asked to do, which was to be a reporter.

I drink a lot of everything; beer while watching football. I have a taste for whiskey, but Jack Daniels and ginger is about as fancy as it gets with me.

Is there some truth out there? Yes. Is there a lot of falsehood out there? Absolutely.

Christian is a term used to describe a broad range of those who believe that Jesus Christ is the son of God. I think of myself at an Evangelical Christian and regularly attend a Pentecostal church.

I absolutely believe in Heaven and Hell. They're just like what the Bible says they are.

I don't think that I have been treated kindly or fairly by a certain portion of the gay community. Most of the rest don't know what to make of me. On the occasions that I have had the opportunity to present myself to the community, I have gotten a positive response.

I'm sure I could fall in love with a Democrat as easily as a Republican. Some things transcend politics.
Jeff Gannon

I enjoy competing in the marketplace of free ideas.
Jeff Gannon

I have issues with liberals, which includes many gay people. I have found some liberal gays to be extremely intolerant of other points of view.

I'm not sure when the New Media will replace the Old Media, but it will be sooner than later.

I believe that I am more conservative than George W. Bush. However, it is important to note that he has had to govern, which often necessitates political compromise, I had not had to make any such concessions.
Jeff Gannon

If I am communicating to my readers exactly what the White House believes on any certain issue, that's reporting to them an unvarnished, unfiltered version of what they - the Administration - believe.
Jeff Gannon

If I am a Republican shill, wouldn't you think I am the least amount of a threat to the president?
Jeff Gannon
21.
All my stories were usually titled, 'White House Says,' 'President Bush Wants,' and I relied on transcripts from the briefings. I relied on press releases that were sent to the press for the purpose of accurately portraying what the White House believed or wanted.

Pentecostals believe they experience the power of the Holy Spirit at various times. I believe that also since I have experienced it first-hand. It's not something that can be easily explained.
Jeff Gannon

What I hear about the book does not sound like the Scott McClellan I knew for two years. I can say, without fear of contradiction, that I knew Scott better than any other White House correspondent or Washington reporter.

My name is James Guckert. Well, when you read it, it's always pronounced some other way.
Jeff Gannon
25.
I think that the government has an obligation to monitor communications that could reveal a plot to murder millions of Americans. Monitoring bowel movements? I'll leave that to some of the gay bloggers, that's much more their style.
Jeff Gannon
26.
I favor an aggressive expansion of America's intelligence capabilities domestically and around the world.

George W. Bush's position on illegal immigration is a perfect example of a political compromise. A true conservative would have built a border fence, dug a moat and stationed troops on the border long ago.

The Democrats need to govern for all Americans as well as deliver for their core constituencies. It will be difficult for them to do both.
Jeff Gannon
29.
Republicans lost control of Congress because they strayed from the core conservative values that put them into the majority in 1994. If they return to the basic values that a majority of Americans share, they will regain power. If not, they won't.

I have come to understand what being a public person means. I don't let things I can't do anything about bother me.

I judge each person on individual merits.
