The "Drive by/Liberal media" sure are holding Gibbs' feet to the fire.

They are trying to tag him and the new administration on everything.

Gibbs is doing a good job and I'm happy to see it as hopefully it will restore the press to its proper place once again.

I want the press to ask the hard questions and I believe that the Obama Admin will be able to answer the questions in a way that will make America proud.

1. The Obama team is full of incredibly smart, able people.

They can handle it. It's the press corpse that needs to eat their Wheaties. :)

4. Too much of it was petulance and gossip.

The PETULANCE was evident in the whining about not being "invited" ("present") for the meaningless re-do of the oath of office -- an act which, at best, was merely undertaken to SHUT DOWN THE IDIOT WHINING. The self-importance gene seems in large supply inside the beltway.

6. I have no problem with them doing their job

But, the obsession with oath-gate today seemed a bit silly...you would think that there were more purposeful, tough but fair questions to ask than to scream "wahhh,we were left out!"

7. Explain that to the complete MORONS on this site

When a reporter asks you a tough question, they're giving you an opportunity. If you answer it well it only makes you look good. If you come off bad, it's cause you did a shitty job.
