Gibbs is a despicable liitle grub, isn’t he? A pasty twerp punk who probably has to pay for dates.

The war on investors intensifies. The rats have barely begun on their war on investors. Card check, nationalized health care, minimum wage, and CO2 regulations will soon be unleashed. The rats will attempt to divide the opposition by throwing money at certain groups. The overall message is clear. Unfortunately for the rats, investors as a whole cannot be coerced. Investment drives employment over the long run so the rats dream of high employment will turn into a nightmare.

I have to get Obama credit in one thing. He knows how to work the media to his advantage. Bush never understood how important it is to keep a good image.

You got that right, maybe the biggest failure of the whole 8 years.

This is one issue where 0bama hasn’t done the math. The percentage of Americans who are current in their mortgage and make their payments on time is considerably more than the percentage of “troubled” mortgages.

I was talking to Mrs. Henkster who runs the family books; we got out first mortgage in 1987. During those 21 1/2 years, we never EVER were even so much as late on a payment. My guess is that many Americans are in the same position, and the idea that they are being forced to pay their own mortgage PLUS the mortgage of others who had less financial sense is going to rub the wrong way.

“This is America. How many of you people want to pay for your neighbor’s mortgage that has an extra bathroom and can’t pay their bills? Raise their hand.”

There were boos.

“President Obama are you listening?” Santelli asked.

Santelli said, “We’re thinking about having a Chicago tea party in July. All you capitalists that want to show up to Lake Michigan, I’m going to start organizing it! We’re going to be dumping in some derivative securities, what do you think about that?”

How childish.

Not sure you understand what seems to be happening.

Try reading this for a start:

I always liked Rick Santelli. He was, of course, correct in his statement. Not politically correct, but right none the less. Pointing out the obvious disastrous effects on something in which he lives his entire professional life in should be listened to. Not derided. Who’s got a stopwatch to time how long it takes for some leftist to send him a death threat?

You better be frightened! Rick better watch his back. I’m sure Obama’s subjects are digging up dirt on him right now.

Hmm. Who to believe...Rick Santelli or Dumbass Gibbs? Rick Santelli or Dumbass Gibbs? That’s a tough one. Gibbs and his Baghdad Bob impersonation is the laughingstock of the world. Does anyone believe this clown or his boss? Anyone? Beuller?

I agree, it is very low for the White House to attack a person.

Just think, they do it to public figures, average joes are next.

Indeed.

They are a bunch of metro-sexual, girlie men, many of whom creeped us out during klinton's term. They are stupid and because of that, dangerous. But they have experience and yet remain cowardly enough that Obama was comfortable appointing them...as he can run over them with ease while using their experience of WH inner workings.

But....

what I want to know is WHY IN THE HELL was the WH wondering or asking where Rick Sanelli lives....That was really creepy!

And secondly....why in the hell is our WH attacking American citizens that express disagreement? That is SPOOKY. And Immature. And a terrible abuse and misuse of the natural WH power.

What a bunch of creepy, stupid men and women are infesting our WH.

"Apparently this WH is going to personally attack anyone who disagrees with them. How childish.

I agree completely. It is childish, petulant, small-minded, shallow and vacuous. Unfortunately, with this American public, it works.

Bush did not defend himself frequently nor forcefully enough. Obama and his henchmen won't be making that mistake. They will, at every opportunity, personalize their attacks on their critics and the MSM will be willing accomplices.

Mr. Santelli’s tax returns will be investigated. Unlike Hussein’s cabinet member’s tax returns.
