I found a listing of the two of them speaking at the same conference together last September.
The Conference was held between September 16-18, 2004 in DC and was entitled the "GOPUSA Issues and Action Conference"
I am not sure anyone has diaried on this conference before, so excuse me if so. I admit I was tied up and unable to do much blogging until this weekend, so could have missed it. Still, it is interesting Rove was listed as a speaker for a conference run by Gannon's employer, GOPUSA, and which Gannon/Guckert himself was scheduled to speak at. Here is a Freeper post stating both Rove and Gannon were scheduled to speak:

Interesting the official website for the Conference lists Gannon, but not Rove as a speaker.

Yet, Free Republic thought Rove would speak, despite his not being listed on the official schedule. So, did Rove speak? I don't know. I found a few vague reviews of the Conference on the web, but nothing that went into much specifics. This definately should be looked into further to see what contacts Gannon had at this conference.
