4. He's doing very well today. Ripping into Santelli for his BS comments about the housing package the
past few days. Gibbs has his heavily sarcastic wit out, just ripped him a new one in such great style!!!

6. Served him up the biggest plate of ass-kicking EVER. Didn't hesitate even once in destroying
that guy. That is the Gibbs I love to see. That was close to if not even better than his encounter with Hannity.

7. Yup-he's absolutely sure Santelli has NOT read Obama's plan, and he suggests
the guy go to the WH website, find the plan, hit "print," and READ it. He also said he'd be glad to buy him a cup of coffee-DECAF. :rofl:

13. Gibbs Put That One in the Upper Decks
Politico has it on their multimedia site in case anyone wants to venture over.

The funniest thing of all was his entire demeanor. Calm, collected and damn sarcastic!

He had the whole room laughing! The cable stations are already running it over and over. Sweet.
