Secret Service *letter* to Conyers and Slaughter on RawStory

Some of these look like partial answers, or raise more questions. The photo ID and the other dates of access which weren't explained are two examples. Did he use "Guckert" or "Gannon" on the pass? If he presented a photo ID with the name "Gannon," it was bogus. Or if he presented one with "Guckert" but got "Gannon" on the pass, that was bogus. Either way, the question remains about why Scottie called him by the fake name.

The "temporary appointments" that were explained only start on 12/20/04, mostly by Lois Cassano. Who requested them before that time?

1. I find it odd they would do this background check on a daily basis

these "answers" only raise more questions.

2. Right, but he was probably on an "access list"

which only involved doing the background check once in 30 days. (And why couldn't the US Secret Service figure out he was a hooker? What do these background checks consist of, just arrest records?)

4. According to the response...

...it consists of searches of various federal, state, etc criminal databases.

3. Anybody have a record of how Scottie answered these questions? nt

5. "White Staff members"

Read the last line of the last answer. Funny.
