I Think Robert Gibbs Is The New Tony SnowJob |
|
His interview with Ed was all about not answering the question and filibustering the interviewer with anything but what was being ask...he succeeded in dodging questions about the public option and such...
This administration is showing itself to be weak and non confrontational more each day....
I say Gibbs,Rahm,Timmy G and Larry Summers ought to be on their way out....this administration is becoming more disgraceful each day...

9. He may have been Bush's sockpuppet, but he was a likeable and self-effacing guy. Gibbs is all snark. |

Snow deliberately lied to cover up for his boss and that resulted in the deaths of thousands of American soldiers and countless innocent civilians. Glad you found him likable, though I'm not surprised you do.

10. I think they all have to keep presenting the Presidential message - We can't |
|
really expect objective responses to the questions.
Can you picture any one in that position coming out and letting it just fly? I was actually surprised that he/they admitted as much as he/they did about not being prepared, aware of this until it was too late.

15. Tony Snow was actually good at what he did. |
|
Gibbs, on the other hand, manages to come across as both arrogant and befuddled at the same time, not an appealing combination.

16. Yeah.....Snow lied with a smile to his fellow Reporters who fellated him |
|
while he stood at the podeum....
Gibbs may be a lot of things, but he's not a smiling media fellating liar.

17. Total filibuster job tonight from RG |

Put him on the hotseat with Maddow and Ratigan and he'd run for the hills.

What is wrong with this board? One loss and everyone wants to kill themselves and everyone in the WH. Changes need to be made but some people are just plain nuts.

After watching Gibbs on The Ed Show, he's definitely as TONE deaf.
I HATE that goofy smile when he can't counter his opponent's argument. Sort of like a "ruling class" type arrogance. :puke:

25. He's trying to deny the undeniable. |
|
Which never looks good.
A bad job on the Ed Show.
