Wow. That was really fun to watch!

[Carley]

Gibbs is laughing - alone this time.

[Don'tMessWithTexas]

These guys are starting to get pissed at Gibbs.

This has to be watched. The Troll and the CBS Blowdried Hair Guy take on the smirking, arrogant a** known as the Press Secretary.

I know tigers don’t change their stripes, but this gives me just a sliver of hope that the drive-bys are getting feed up with Barry acting like he is still on the campaign trail.

[coconut47]

they all deserve each other

[GnuHere]

WOW - in other news, Hell has frozen over. We need that pic of the “Hell” frozen town sign.

Feeling mugged, the press. All good. Flakes fall; self-deception revealed. Helen deserves applause. The press made 'O'; they can unmake him. But the press will be bloodied. They're just beginning to discover who 'O' is. Major not nice to his detractors.

That felt good, watching.

Gibbs is the perfect press secretary for Obama. Arrogant and thoroughly evil. I never miss the daily press conferences. After all the news orgs stopped carrying the pressers live, I continue to watch them via YouTube.

[From The Deer Stand]

The Obama Administration is a bunch of arrogrant ##### and maybe, just maybe, the main stream media is finding this out. How dare they want to ask the Annointed One any pointed questions?

[BunnySlippers]

It’s the ONLY way a TOTUS can hold a townhall. A real one would trip him up.

[mom-7]

It’s about time.

[bamahead]

[GnuHere]

Haha

[Buckeye McFrog]

it’s like watching a rabid jackal devour a baby bunny...

[dasboot]

Just a creepy feeling.....some journalists having bad accidents at the wheel...’falling asleep. ‘O’ has, at his disposal, a vast underground, and ready assistance from foreign national agents. ‘O’ is playing nice as long as he gets his way. So much potential in him and his acolytes for mayhem, whenever free people and institutions might begin to push back.

Where are the Horrible Helen pictures? SHOW ME THE PICTURES!! :-)

Gibbs is laughing - alone this time.

Looks to me that he was also flipping the bird sign???

[Senator_Blutarski]

The other reporters did not find Gibbs amusing. His repeated comment that "you can e-mail in your question" was incredibly condescending.

I can only imagine the conversations between the reporters in the hallway after this event.
