Robert Gibbs is quitting

[Mini 14]

Next month he will step down.

Guess he knows its all hands on deck for 2012. He'll go down with the ship as well.

Barack is going to need all the help he can get if he's going to run for re-election in 2012. I've read that Massachusetts Governor Duval Patrick has hinted at jumping on the bandwagon as well.

Full of confidence, and a bit of bluster, since his reelection in November, the governor said yesterday that he is planning more travel, both domestically and overseas, to promote the state on trade missions, to research other states’ policies, to publicize his upcoming memoir, and possibly to campaign for President Obama.

Funny stuff. Please explain how four more years of gridlock in DC advances the needs of America. Obama should just fade away. Hope he takes his socialism with him.

I am glad he is quitting. Now he knows how Sarah Palin felt?? Seriously though, he has a terribly stressful job of defending the indefensible and he needs a break and I need a fresh face in his position. He did his job well, in my opinion.

Seriously... who would want that job? Being a nonstop bullshit fountain, day in and day out?

Hell no.

 

[BlackAsCoal]

Good riddance.

 

[Jeremy]

Bye.

It's a tough job no matter who's the president. Long hours and modest pay, but a chance to cash in with a book when it's over and other opportunities. Look what Dana Perino has parlayed her stint in to these days.

 

[Si modo]

Good. Gibbs is a buffoon.

The inner circle is out finding new work. Not the mark of a successful operation.

 

[Oddball]

What a crying shame.

I enjoyed his almost daily buffoonery....At least that inadvertent comedy routine did nothing to actually harm the nation.

I heard Noam Chomsky was getting the job?

 

[Darkwind]

They'll find a new spew czar. Never fear.

 

[Muscovite]

Now he can get on with his life's work and go back to representing Hasbro toys as the official corporate model..... as "Mr. Potato Head".

 

[Truthmatters]

pretty typical for them to only serve a couple of years, no big deal.

 

[rightwinger]

Not upset at seeing him go

Gibbs was a stiff and did not represent the administration very well

 

[midcan5]

Let's hope they select Bill Burton.

He quit halfway through Obamas' term and we hate quitters don't we?

I hear this guy needs a good job in media...
