Robert Gibbs is an Embarrassment and Should Resign

Allahpundit’s stated purpose for posting this video on Hot Air was to show how the press is getting a little cranky about Obama’s, shall we say, Chavezian, control of the press. The One’s Healthcare townhall today will have preselected questioners and questions and participation is by invitation only. Outside of Stepford, Connecticut, there is no town in America that would ever have a townhall meeting that looks like this one.

Chip Reid and Helen Thomas do a good job asking the questions of Robert Gibbs, but as I watched, the point of the questions became increasingly irrelevant. Gibbs acts like a smart-ass 16 year old kid. He dodges, answers questions with questions, repeats his silly juvenile retorts over and over (“have you sent YOUR email to the president, Chip?”), all the while sarcastically laughing off the question.

When you compare Gibbs to former White House Press Secretaries like Ari Fleischer or Marlin Fitzwater, Gibbs looks like a mildly retarded frat boy on open-mike night at daddy’s nightclub. The President of the United States can do better than a guy who sounds like the high water mark of his communications career was finishing third-place in the 1977 southwest Alabama regional high school debate competition.

    Why would you assumed that Obozo ‘can do better’?…look who he picked for his VP….and for his Sec of State,Treasury,etc etc etc…you are imputing competence where none is justified.

    True, and believe me, when Obama stops by to check out the blog, which we know he does, I hope he completely disagrees and keeps Gibbs on for the remaining 3 1/2 years of his single term as President. It only helps us.

    We’ve talked about this, Bill. STOP IT! Gibbs has to stay. Anyone they put in will be more competent – by mathematical definition. Let Gibbs stay. A long, long time.

    Please let him stay, so he can go down with this treasonous ship of state. Besides, if he gets canned then he’d probably come back to Auburn, Alabama, & we don’t want him that close to us.

    I hate that he is from Alabama,& I really hate that the pseudo president has Bama in his name.

    Is this “hate speech?” Oh well.

    God bless America!

    I think he should stay as long as BOH does….3 1/2 more years.

    Genie, I just made up the Alabama part. I have no idea where the guys is from. Odds are against it, so rest easy.

    Bill, Robbie Gibbs is from Auburn, Alabama.

    “Dr. Emily Sparrow, who taught history and government at Auburn High School, knew she had a special student in Robert Gibbs.”

    “He had a 99 average in Advanced Placement History and a 100 average in Government,” she said of the 1989 AHS graduate. “But the coolest thing about Bobby was he was respectful of other people’s opinions. I watch him on TV and I see that characteristic has served him well. That’s unique for a 17-year-old.”

    This quote is from the Opelika-Auburn News, Nov. 6, 2008. (oanow.com)

    Don’t be too hard on our beautiful state. Except for a few people like Robbie Gibbs, Alabama is a wonderful place to live.

    God bless Amwerica!

    Did you get that “respectful” part in the quote? What do you suppose happened to him?

    I found out late last night over on FR that he actually is, as you say, from Alabama. I had absolutely no idea that was the case. I have nothing at all against Alabama. My beef is with anti-American states like Massachusetts (frankly all of New England – which actually wanted to secede in the War of 1812 – should have let them go) and California, which are nothing more than morgues for individual freedom. Roll Tide!
