Ok, Eagle, I'll do my part and comment (since you are kind enough to point out these great threads to us).

Summary: Gibbs tapdancing all over the place, refusing to answer. Started with a question about will Obama veto a health bill that raises taxes on those making over $250K. Gibbs said he gets this question once a week, there's flexibiity on the part of Congress, yada yada yada. Another reporter (or perhaps the same) said Obama made a flat pledge on the campaign trail and what about that. Gibbs said it is a hypothetical question since there are any number of different bills and proposals out there. Another reporter says it is not hypothetical since Obama made a pledge. Gibbs states that they are going to let the process work its way through. Laughter and guffaws from the press. Someone asks if Obama is reversing his most conspicuous promise now. More dancing around, stating the bill is not even close.

Are these actually the same liberal journalists we've had to endure for years? I *almost* like them.

I don’t waste my time on Baghdad Bob Gibbs.... (remember Baghdad Bob... Saddam’s press person...) Every time I hear or see Gibbs, that is who I think of.

Well,(speaking of politics) you are getting me started on my lone Congressman... The one whose offices I have called and told that I no longer call him a RHINO, and now call him something much worse. Over his vote for the C(r)ap and Tax bill that he admits he only read parts of before voting for it. If it weren’t such an insult to the soil, I would call him DIRT for Democrat in Republicans Toga.

Three more weeks and I will be addressing him on MY turf when he comes down to the State Fair... I don’t cut him much slack! (Michael Castle one of the 8 R’s who voted for that monstrosity and are responsible for it passing the House) Then his webpage says relies on information from CAP (Center for American Progress - The Ultra Liberal BS spinners that he now apparently bows to instead of the voters) how EVERY State will see thousands of new jobs from this bill... I informed him that The Heritage Foundation and the CBO have a very different take on the outcome with many thousands of NET losses of jobs and taxes (now called trades) out the yazoo - ON EVERYONE! (Think you will ever see your ‘offset’?)

Then he goes on about wind power being our ‘great resource’ - More BS... If he had ever looked at the wind resources maps, he would see that the whole state is poor to marginal at best for wind power. Grrrrrr.

Oh, and forget the 5 days to revise your vote - they are in recess till it is too late for that...

I wish we had a ‘recall’ provision...

LOL Eagle50AE pushed the anger button there... (Maybe I was just all loaded, primed and cocked - just looking for an opportunity to explosively unload)

Breathing deeply now... Blood Pressure almost back down...

One thousand and one, One thousand and two.......
