James Guckhart, a.k.a. Jeff Gannon, is a true mystery man. While Gannon's name may ring a bell, you may have a tough time remembering his scandal. We have been having so much fun with hypocrisy lately that we tend to forget some of our earlier pioneers and discard them like reality show contestant. You have heard them say that a good man is hard to find and a hard man is good to find. Jeff Gannon is a hard man. Mr. Gannon became part of the White House Press Corps, reporting for Talon News, which at the time of his entry into the White House, did not exist.

His questions in the press briefings were considered somewhat to the right of Fox News. His fellow journalists became suspicious when, during one conference, he asked President Bush, “You’ve said you are going to reach out to the Democrats. How are you going to work with people who seem to have divorced themselves from reality?"

While the seemingly conservative Gannon was playing the staunch Republican journalist, John Aravosis from Americablog brought to light that the hunky journalist had been doubling as a cyber-hooker and stated that Gannon's nude photos appeared on more than one website. To add fuel to the Gannon mystery, he seemed to have free reign as far as coming and going from the White House, signing in, but rarely signing out.

In addition, Jeff Gannon interviewed Ambassador Joseph Wilson and supposedly asked him about an internal memo relating to Valerie Plame. No matter how you slice or dice this story, this man is mysterious, and a hard mystery man is good to find.

The gay community doesn’t know what to make of Mr. Gannon and he doesn’t know what to make of us. It is a mutual love/hate relationship. It is hard to get inside this man’s head as he speaks in sound bytes and has the amazing talent of making you feel he has answered a question, when in reality, he has not. He could very easily be the next Tony Snow, which I would love to see, especially if Jeff Gannon would perform his press secretary duties while donning a jock strap. Jeff is working on a new book entitled Hating Jeff Gannon.

Below is my man on man hot verbiage action with Mr. Mysterious.

JJ: Reading your blog, it seems that you might be even more conservative than George W. Bush.
