Gibbs mocks Palin

[Vast LWC]

So, why should that matter to you all. You all keep saying she is no threat of any sort.

IT DOESN'T. I only responded because you people were insulting Gibbs, who's a decent fellow, as press secretaries go. Of course that's not saying much.

Barry and his people certainly are classy.

And he wonders why his approval sinks lower day by day.

 

[Dr.House]

So true, Xeno...

The more the left makes out of "Hand-gate", the more petty and foolidh they look...

I hope they continue...

LOL. Nice double standard.

What's your reasoning? Just out of curiosity?

Should the Obama administration be polite to women, even when they attack them every single day, just because they are women?

Do we need to protect the "poor little women"? Are they too "weak" to take a joke or two at their expense?

If they give women the same kind of comment the women are throwing at them, that makes them less "classy"?

I guess then, by your logic, we can't ever have a woman president, as she just wouldn't be able to handle the criticism.

Hey don't worry if it's a woman, man or child..We want this administration attacting the people of the country when they don't like something that is said about them..

Keep up the GREAT WORK..Three in the bag and a lot more to come.

Slight of hand: White House spokesman Robert Gibbs writes in jab at Sarah Palin's Tea Party speech

"I wrote a few things down," Gibbs said after a question about a White House jobs summit. "I wrote eggs, milk and bread. I crossed out bread, just so I can make pancakes for \[son\] Ethan if it snows."

As the briefing room erupted in laughter, Gibbs added, "And then I wrote down hope and change, just in case I forgot."

Hm, kind of funny, but I am not sure if Press Secretary should do that kind of things.

THAT'S GREAT NEWS--for Sarah Palin & the Tea Party Movement. Here we have an unpopular administration in a solid downward trend--whose press secretary tries to throw a pun at Sarah Palin-over writing 4 words on her hands.

Every time someone in this administration or a member of congress launches verbal attacks against citizens of this country--Tea Partiers or Sarah Palin--this administrations & congress''s approval numbers DROP.

In fact, I really don't remember any other administration or congress for that matter that was stupid enough to believe that they could pit middle class Americans against other Americans. "Americans will always turn on government--regardless of party affliliation---if they feel that government is unfairly attacking--or making fun of other citizens is this country." And tea party is so main stream American--it makes these idiots in Washington D.C. look retarded when they try & insult them.

 

[Dr.House]

I think you're cutting her far too much slack. Why should she have the adbantage of opening her mouth every single day yet have no responsibility for what she spews? yet if anyone criticizes her, they're somehow wrong?

I'll have to respectfully disagree with you.

I think yer misunderstanding what I'm saying. She has to take full responsibility for what she says, but it's not Presidential level responsibility. And the more she acts with disregard to this level of responsibility, the less likely it is she will ever actually hold the position.

I think for the people who like her, short of her suddenly going on a campaign tour for barack obama, it won't make a difference. Yet I think it needs to be pointed out to everyone else, and at every opportunity, just how absurd she is.

I also know for a fact how people treated Hillary Clinton and how they treat Michelle Obama. Neither is president. Hillary took more stuff thrown at her than most politicians at the presidential level. And the same people who threw it are the ones who whine when anyone insults palin. At some point, she is either big league material or she isn't. She is either a player or she is a bimbo. And I suspect if she looked more like Helen Thomas and less like what she does, no one would be demanding that she be treated with kid gloves.

That may be true, but one cannot ignore the fact that the same ones who were complaining about the stuff thrown at Hillary are the same ones throwing it at Palin...

If you're going to weild the hypocrisy sword it needs to be pointed out that it's a double edged sword...

And Sarah Palin is just an "Average Joe". She's just "one of the regular people". She's not a major partisan political figure in the Republican party or anything...

Right?

ROFL. This shit gets funnier every day.

 

[jillian]

So true, Xeno...

The more the left makes out of "Hand-gate", the more petty and foolidh they look...

I hope they continue...

I can understand that... kind of like it amuses me when the right talks about a president's teleprompter.

Except that the reason this event is even mentionable is that the Obama administration says nothing about Palin at all other times.

God, this thread is just foolish. I'm bowing out. I refuse to let you people drag me into any more of a conversation about Sarah Palin.

Goodnight.

Difference: Hillary did not have a grass root movement behind her that includes millions of main stream Americans--commonly referred to as the Tea Party.

Big--Big--Mistake on Gibbs part.

I can understand that... kind of like it amuses me when the right talks about a president's teleprompter.

I was talking about "the administration" left... Gibs, in this case...

Plus, doesn't a good portion of the left hold themselves above the "antics of the right"?

 

[jillian]

I just find that the right spends all its time saying some pretty terrible things about this administration.

They only worry about "propriety" when they're given back what they dish out.

So basically, the choices are:

succumb to bullies.

or

respond.


so Gibbs responded. I'm okay with it.

I still say the whole thing is much ado about nothing and will likely backfire on the Dems if they keep it going...

When they attack Sarah Palin they in essense are attacking the millions & continually growing tea party movement in this country. They are comitting political suicide.

Now--some of you lib-tards want to believe that the movement is astro-turf--& just will fade into the sunset---WRONG---their numbers are growing faster than the pace of the federal government.

On Saturday I attended my tea party group in my small town-400 to 500 people standing room only-& all 5 candidates running for U.S. Senator showed up for a 3 hour get to know meeting with us.

So& your behinds off--because it will be the tea party movement in this country that will get the last laugh.---
